Group 1 winning jockey Jason Benbow will test the water in Adelaide over the coming weeks with an eye on making Adelaide home.

Jason Benbow was approached by local horseman Travis Doudle about the opportunity of becoming his stable rider and Benbow said the time was right to consider a move interstate.

"Travis sent me a text message asking whether I'd be interested in heading over for a stint,'' Benbow said.

"Victoria is quite competitive, I've got a young family and I thought the time might be right to give it a go,'' he said.

Benbow said a decision on a permanent move would all come down to success.

"I'm going to be guided by performance,'' Benbow said.

"I'm here to three to six weeks, that gives me a foundation going into the new season,'' he said.

Benbow has ridden more than 750 winners with his Group 1 breakthrough coming aboard Sky Cuddle in 2004 Emirates Stakes.

Saturday's meeting at Morphettville sees Benbow engaged in all nine races, including five chances for the Travis Doudle stable.
