    • 2024 Goodwood winner, Benedetta. (Photo by Scott Barbour/Racing Photos) Group 1-winning mare Benedetta will make her competitive Moonee Valley debut in Saturday’s $1 million Group 1 William Reid Stakes (1200m). Trainer Jason Warren is eager to work the mare at the track on Tuesday. “She’s worked there once as we were thinking about racing her in this race two years ago,” Warren told Racing.com. “She probably doesn’t need it, but I’m going to take her there Tuesday to stretch the legs. I’m confident we have the right horse.” Benedetta placed in the Black Caviar Lightning Stakes (1000m) first-up at Flemington but could only manage tenth in the Group 1 Newmarket Handicap (1200m) under top-weight in her last start. “It was a pretty hard watch – but she’s in good shape, that’s the main thing,” Warren said of that effort. “I thought if we won the Newmarket, the William Reid was a no-brainer back to weight-for-age. “But in saying that, we got top weight in the Newmarket, so that suggests she’s almost out of handicap races. “Hopefully, we can go and bang out a Group 1 in Victoria and move on to bigger things.” A strong performance on Saturday would likely see Benedetta target the Group 1 TJ Smith Stakes (1200m) at Randwick on April 5 or the Group 1 Robert Sangster Stakes (1200m) at Morphettville on April 26.
