Big Energy has retired after an amazing racing career.
He won 23 of his 56 starts and amassed almost $700,000 in prize money.
He farewells us as the only greyhound to have broken 29-seconds five times at Sandown Park. He owns five of the top 11 times at the track since January 2023 and three of the top four – only Flying Zulu has gone faster (28.838) in that period.
He’s the only greyhound to have won two Shootouts. He was a dual finalist of the Melbourne Cup and The Phoenix. He was also a finalist of the Topgun, Temlee, Adelaide Cup, Sandgroper, Cranbourne Cup, McKenna Memorial, Ambrosoli and Speed Star.
Benny, as Big Energy is affectionately known as, will transition to stud duties.
*Aston Rupee also broke 29-seconds five times, however one was in a Speed Star trial
