“I want to extend a special thanks to Benalla Racing Club’s Cameron Symes, Tony Smith, Gwen Turner, and the entire committee for always showcasing such excellent events.
“Congratulations to Seymour trainer Dean Glass and his team for taking out the cup with the winner, High Torque.”
Ms Cleeland encouraged locals to support upcoming Benalla Racing Club meets and get behind regional businesses.
“Central Victoria is the home of thoroughbred breeding and racing, and there’s no denying the importance it has for our local tourism,” Ms Cleeland said.
“We’re lucky to have regular meets and quality facilities in our own backyard.
“Whether it be racing, a market, or dining out, I encourage everyone in our region to explore what the north-east and central Victoria have to offer and support our local economies.”
