Lundholm dominated the card at his home track on Friday and then on Saturday he took out the final event on the card with My Beau.
My Beau was the only starter for based Lundholm at Tottenham and punters keen to follow the in-form stable sent the four-year-old gelding to the barriers as the $2.40 favourite for the Class B Handicap (1400m).
Given a nice run behind the leaders by Maddison Wright, My Beau then fought hard to get past Work And Chat (Michael Wade, $11) and win by a half length with a short half head to Dizzy Dylan ( Ricky Blewitt,$4 ) in third place.
