ROCK CANYON gets the nod to go one better having been beaten a nose over track and trip last week. Linda Perratt’s charge can race off the same mark today and can confirm running with Amber Crystal. Indastar won over the minimum trip at Newcastle last month and went close over course and distance before that. He’s preferred to Malaysian Boleh, who can race off a lower mark on Turf having done the vast majority of his winning on the all-weather. Ypres and Chookie's Lass were both due to run at Musselburgh yesterday and the remainder are hard to fancy.
