Another stakes win for red-hot Mastercraftsman

In-form Mastercraftsman was on the mark again in Italy on Sunday thanks to the useful mare Lorenzetta (5m Mastercraftsman-Louise Aron, by Intikhab).

The five-year-old, bred by Societa Agricola C.I.T.A.I, captured the Listed Premio Pietro Bessero in Milan for trainer Riccardo Santini.

Settled off the pace, Lorenzetta hit the front in the final furlong of the mile-event to score in the famous colours of Razza Dormello Olgiata.

Mastercraftsman was also on the mark a day earlier in Germany when Ashiana (3f Mastercraftsman-Ashantee, by Areion) won the G2 Stutenpreis in Baden Baden.
