Salford reverts to hurdling

SALFORD City reverts to the smaller obstacles when he tackles the Grade Three Kevin McManus Bookmaker Grimes Hurdle over two miles at Tipperary tomorrow.

Gordon Elliott’s charge won his first two starts over fences with considerable ease and turned in a good effort in defeat to Kerryhead Windfarm when upped to two and a half miles last time out.

“It’s a good opportunity for him,” said Elliott.
