Bush jockey Richard Bensley admitted he was steeling himself for a hostile reception before bringing Loved Up with a rails run to win the $400,000 Scone Guineas.

On a red-letter day for the jockey who rides almost exclusively on the country circuit, Bensley gambled and won handsomely on the Brett Cavanough-trained Loved Up who came from last to claim the richest prize on offer during the two-day Scone Cup carnival.

It complemented the jockey's earlier win on Artlee in the Luskin Star Stakes in what was a lucky pick-up ride on Saturday after Mitchell Bell injured his arm in a fall which marred the second race.

"I could actually hear Brett in the back of my mind when I went up the fence," Bensley said.

"I was getting ready to get a kick up the arse from him.

"But there was nowhere else for me to go and I had a lapful of horse and sometimes you've just got to back yourself, don't you?"

In an all-fillies finish, Loved Up ($7.50) defeated Nayeli ($7) by 1-1/4 lengths with Heavens Above ($14) finishing another length third.

Cavanough said he did question the wisdom of Bensley's move to keep to the fence.

"I nearly had to change my pants at the 300 (metres) but then (the race) opened up on the inside and away she went," he said.

Loved Up raced through the Country Championship series and finished sixth in the Final won by Artlee before she was runner-up to Got The Goss in the Wagga Town Plate.

Bensley, who ranks the Guineas win above his Black Opal success on You're Canny despite the absence of black-type, found himself speaking from a point of authority when asked to describe the filly which has now won six of her 13 starts.

"She was unlucky to run into Artlee I suppose in the Country Championship Final but we saw what he did today and she's a pretty special filly," he said.

Cavanough says he will spend a few more days in Scone to let Loved Up get over the run, allowing him time to consider her immediate future.

"I've been up here since Monday and a bloke said 'how are you going to go' and I said 'it's like this. We put the blinker on and go right (back home to Albury) or we might go to Queensland for the Tatt's Tiara," Cavanough said.

"But we won't rush home, we'll just let her recover and see what happens."

Bensley's double was one of three for the day with Brenton Avdulla and Hugh Bowman also riding two winners.

The meeting turned out to be just as significant for Danny Beasley as he rode his first winner since resuming a career that stalled in Singapore.

Beasley won the $200,000 Dark Jewel Classic on outsider Divertire.
