Salsada wins on hurdles debut
Charlotte Turner • October 18, 2021
From the Racing Post - An average maiden hurdle for this track with the exception of the winner, who was a cut above. The early pace was steady, causing several to race keenly.
SALSADA, a very useful sort on the Flat, gradually warmed to the task in terms of her jumping and, impressed with how readily she put the race to bed in the straight, extending her advantage all the way to the line. There's more to come and she may well prove capable of defying a penalty.
You always hope they'll do it like that and we think a lot of SALSADA . She just had a problem with the stalls and she's been sent to me to go jumping. She made two mistakes and would have won by further otherwise. She's Listed class and probably wants more of a galloping track - Brian Ellison, trainer.

Each horse shows the dedication, care, and expertise that underpins the Stud’s 2025 breeding programme over the past year. This season all yearlings have been consigned and prepared by Harry Dutfield and his team.
