🥇Congratulations to the team at Ben Ahrens Racing! Kerchak (NZ) delivered a standout performance at Eagle Farm on Saturday, taking the BM78 in impressive style. Coming from behind, he powered through to finish strong, winning by an impressive 3 lengths. 🐎💨

takes his record to 14 starts for 7 wins and 3 placings, taking out race 7 this afternoon at Eagle Farm Racecourse! Stepping away from the outside gate in the 1805mtrs Benchmark 78, the son of Westbury Stud's VRC Derby winning stallion Tarzino was superbly handled by up and coming apprentice Cody Collis and fittingly puts a metro win on the table on Victoria Racing Club Derby day! With Cody steering a patient course from off the speed before peeling wide to make his run at the 400mtr mark, Kerchak let down strongly to record a healthy 2.85lgth victory. Many thanks to the staff that keep him sound and look after him day in, day out and of course to our owners that sourced him from Inglis Digital! Great job to all involved 🥇👌🏇

‼️We are now offering Emergency After-Hours Ambulatory and Clinic Services 🚑

An emergency after-hours situation is one of the most stressful scenarios a horse owner can face. Being prepared can help ensure your equine friend receives the necessary care as soon as possible.

What You Can Do as a Horse Owner:

🔹 Know Your Vet’s After-Hours Policy: Understand your regular veterinarian’s after-hours policy. If they do not offer after-hours services, find out who in the area does and keep their contact information readily available.

🔹 Transport Options: Ensure you have access to a mode of transport for your horse if it needs to be taken to an after-hours clinic.

🔹 Register with Advance Equine Vets: To alleviate stress during emergencies, register you and your horse’s details with us in advance for prompt assistance.

After hours appointments will be billed with a travel cost, an examination and an after hours fee that varies depending on the level.

6 AM – 8 AM & 5 PM – 10 PM

10 PM – 6 AM
