Benji King was both proud and humbled last Friday night when he was awarded The Mary Lynn Ryan Young Achievers Award at the WTBA Group One Awards night. The award is designed to recognise and  encourage a young person involved in the industry who is passionate and keen to progress. Benji with his extensive travel and experience overseas and now his return to Nz to run a busy Brighthill Farm with his father certainly fit the criteria.

“It’s always been an award that I have looked up to and when you look at the quality of the past recipients it is easy to see why”  said Benji who is photographed here with his two brothers Harry on the left and Charlie on the right.
