(Photo by Brett Holburt/Racing Photos) B Press Down will aim for a third consecutive win in Saturday’s Santa Ana Lane Series Final at Flemington, continuing his impressive winter form. Trainer Peter Hardacre’s strategy to extend beyond the Adelaide Racing Carnival has paid off, with the four-year-old securing back-to-back victories, including a strong performance in the Golden Topaz (1200m) at Swan Hill. “He’s really well,” Hardacre told Racing SA. “He did a nice piece of work on the course proper at Murray Bridge on Monday and had a nice little gallop up the hill on the sand this morning (Thursday). “It’s a nice stepping stone for him coming through, he’s weighted to run well. We were able to give him ten days off after Swan Hill and he seems to be even better again. “The one thing I’ve noticed is just how much stronger he’s getting and he’s a more relaxed horse around the stable.” Horse racing news View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
