Vale Rob Bean

The sport is in mourning after the passing of popular participant Rob Bean.

He passed away peacefully on Sunday morning.

He carried decades of experience in training, owning and breeding. Most famously breeding and owning Hobart Thousand winner and Melbourne Cup finalist, Aussie Secret.

Fittingly, a young litter by Aussie Secret will continue to be raced by the family and have already done so with good success with a flying win by Atomic Secret at Warrnambool on Tuesday.

A litter who started their career on fire with a trio winning on debut in Pink Diamond Maiden heats at Shepparton last year.

The funeral will be held on Monday January 20 at Latrobe Valley Funeral Services in Traralgon from 11am. A wake will follow at the Traralgon Greyhound Club.

The funeral will be live streamed – re-visit this page the morning of to access it.
