Dynamic Syndications are delighted to welcome a new member to our trainers ranks.
BEN SMITH
We take this opportunity to introduce Newcastle based horseman BEN SMITH.
Why did we ask Ben to become Dynamic?
Ben may not be a household name just yet but he has learnt his craft well, being another product of the successful Darley system.
We have been watching Ben in admiration from afar for a couple of seasons, observing the rise and rise of this committed 35-year-old and the wonderful job he’s been doing with his horses which includes
his gallant
Gr1 Winning mare IN HER TIME.
IN HER TIME
FACT: As at 28 March 2018 – across ALL TRAINERS Australia-wide who have started 20 + horses in the 2017/18 season, Ben with a massive 31.82% Winning Strike Rate is the BEST TRAINER on Strike Rate in Australia !
Yes – Australia !
Hard to initially imagine the success of this quietly spoken, young provincial trainer is achieving – but it’s true !
On 24 March Ben added Group 1 success with IN HER TIME winning the Galaxy at Rosehill.

His results are truly amazing because
Ben has only 16 Boxes located on course at Newcastle, yet this season,
Ben has had: 66 Runners: 21 Winners (31.82%) + 25 Placed (37.87%).
From 66 Runners: 46 Runners have finished 1st – 2nd – 3rd = 69.7%
These are the statistics owners crave when entrusting their much-loved equine investments into the care of professional trainers.
Metro - His last 25 Runners: 8 Wins (32%), 2 seconds, 2 thirds (48%)
Provincial - His last 25 Runners: 6 Wins (24%), 3 seconds, 2 thirds (44%)
Country - His last 25 Runners: 5 Wins (20%), 4 seconds, 6 thirds (60%)
This season Ben has saddled-up 35 Runners from horses that were previously trained elsewhere. From these, Ben has produced 10 Wins (28.6%) and 12 Placings (34.3%).
That’s 62.9% of these relocated horses have run 1st – 2nd – 3rd which is exceptional.
We believe it could be an advantage for some horses to be with a hands-on trainer where the horse is a major player in the stable.
As Racing Manager and Syndicate Manager of our promotions, it’s our responsibility to ensure that the best outcomes for the horse and the owner are always being adhered too and maximised.
Every young trainer needs horses to make their mark however
only one trainer can be the Best Trainer on Strike Rate in Australia at any point of time and our
Dynamic owners and their horses are VIP’s to us and deserve to
RACE THE BEST – WITH THE BEST.
Ben offers the perfect addition and balance to our exceptional team of Dynamic trainers.
BEN joins our Sydney based trainers: GAI WATERHOUSE & ADRIAN BOTT (Randwick), GERALD RYAN (Rosehill), JASON COYLE (Warwick Farm), BRETT CAVANOUGH (Scone), Brisbane based ROB HEATHCOTE and CHRIS MUNCE along with Melbourne based MICK PRICE.
WITCHES winning at Randwick
Sky Sports Radio reporter Andrew Bensley spoke with Ben on Thursday about being offered
WITCHES ahead of the Provincial Championships Final at Randwick on 14 April.
“I am rapt to get a horse like Witches” Ben said.
We welcome Ben to our team and initially supply his stable with three Dynamic horses headlined by
WITCHES with further Dynamic horses to follow in the near future when box space becomes available.
