The six-year-old GRAND CANYON was a 71-rated handicapper on the Flat and got off the mark over hurdles at the sixth time of asking for connections winning a Ballinrobe handicap hurdle last month by 2¾L. The 9lb rise seems fair given the manor of the win and the High Chaparral-gelding can hold off the attentions of the hat-trick seeking, Rain In Spain and Wexford winner Trenchtown Rock who can continue his improvement here. C&D winner Ciankyle could go better than his price suggests.
