TIPPERARY’s Greg Broderick got off to a good start in Vilamoura last week when he took the runner-up place in Wednesday’s two-star 1.45m class.

Riding Kerry Anne LLC’s Westbrook, Broderick delivered a double clear in a time of 33.34 seconds, less than a second off the winner, Brazil’s João Victor Castro and the stallion Bibenbreaker who were clear in 32.97.
