Bradley Wins Ellis Training Title Going Away

Button Down Racing’s anchor trainer, William B. “Buff” Bradley, sat atop the training leader board at the Ellis Park meet after the first weekend of racing, and that’s where he was at the close of the meet on Labor Day, Sept. 7.

Bradley put an exclamation point on his title with five wins over the four-day holiday weekend. The Churchill Downs-based trainer wound up with 11 wins and $129,465.00 in earnings, both leading figures for conditioners for the meet. It was Bradley’s first training title.

“I’m usually not in a position to get that done,” he said. “My horses are pretty young this time of year and you have to figure out where and when you can run them.”

Bradley was not on the scene at Ellis when he won the title on Labor Day. Rather he was at Arlington Park where his multiple graded-stakes winner, Brass Hat, was running second in the Grade 3 Stars And Stripes Turf Handicap.
