  Grand Cross bounces back in Canada Cup

SINGAPORE:  Feb 9, 2018

GRAND CROSS returned to the winner's circle after more than 10 months to capture the S$100,000 Canada Cup at Kranji here tonight.

Since his last victory last March, the son of Fastnet Rock has raced only four times before tackling the Class 2 - 1200m handicap.

GRAND CROSS, ridden by Zawari Razali, tracked the pacemaker NOVA MISSILE from the start before taking the lead in the home stretch, going on to win by one length from the favourite DRACO.

Zawari was riding GRAND CROSS for the first time today but he has combined with trainer James Peters to win in the recent past.

"Zawari rides very well and we’re having a good run with him," said Peters.

"I wouldn’t mind stepping him (GRAND CROSS) up to 1400m from now on, but I know it will get tougher in the weights."

GRAND CROSS  was sold for A$1.3mil as a yearling but failed to live up to his price tag in Australia although he won two races (at Newcastle and Wyong) from five runs at two and three.

In Singapore, the gelding has now picked up four wins in 15 starts.
