Benbaun flying again

AN attempt to win the Flying Five Stakes for an incredible fourth consecutive time is still on the cards for Benbaun with trainer Mark Wallace looking at sending his stable star back to the Curragh on Sunday.

Benbaun’s winning spree stretched to the Group One Prix de l’Abbaye last year but he has failed to get his head in front this season in five starts.

He did not look like winning last week’s rescheduled Coolmore Nunthorpe Stakes at Newmarket either but found his feet in the closing stages to sprint through for fifth behind Borderlescott.
