(Photo by Scott Barbour/Racing Photos) Group 1 Goodwood (1200m) winner Benedetta is expected to make her spring return in the Group 2 Bobbie Lewis Quality (1200m) at Flemington this Saturday. Currently priced at $7 in all-in markets with horse racing bookmakers, trainer Jason Warren confirmed on Tuesday that the daughter of Hellbent is likely to take her place under jockey Blake Shinn, with a final decision to be made after her gallop on Wednesday. “We intend to run,” Warren told Racing.com. “The final decision will be made after her gallop. We are keeping everything on the table at this stage.” Benedetta is being aimed at the Group 1 Manikato Stakes (1200m) on September 27, with connections also eyeing a potential slot in The Everest (1200m). The five-year-old mare, who has won eight of her 16 starts, has had two trials this preparation, the most recent over 800 metres at Caulfield, where she finished fourth behind The Inferno. Notably, Benedetta wore blinkers during her Goodwood victory, but they will not be used on Saturday.
