Willie Mullins landed the StanJames.com Morgiana Hurdle for the sixth year in succession when Nichols Canyon eased to victory in the Punchestown Grade One.

Thick fog made viewing difficult, but Ruby Walsh was happy to lead on the 8-13 favourite, though he had Jer's Girl in close attendance after the third last before the duo entered the thickest of the mist.

When they emerged at the last, Nichols Canyon had flown, coming home 12 lengths clear despite being eased down.

Walsh had earlier struck when A Toi Phil (3-1) led home a Gordon Elliott one-two in the Grade Two Florida Pearly Novice Chase.

Walsh was sitting pretty as the field emerged from the gloom at the second last, and his mount quickly put the race to bed, finishing seven lengths clear of stablemate Jetstream Jack < Identity Thief appeared to make fairly light work of the Ryans Cleaning Craddockstown Novice Chase.

The 2-5 favourite tracked fellow Henry De Bromhead runner Ordinary World throughout and the pair had the race between them a long way out, though Bryan Cooper pushed Identity Thief out to overtake his stablemate on the run-in to score by a length in the Grade Two.

De Bromhead made it a double on the card when Monalee (3-1) came out best in the INH Stallion Owners EBF Maiden Hurdle under David Mullins, while Samcro (4-9 favourite) gave Elliott a brace when winning the Bradys Ham Supporting Kildare GAA Flat Race under Jamie Codd.< Dalmatia showed the benefit of a couple of Flat runs to beat off all-comers in the Total Event Rental Handicap Hurdle.

Mark Enright was happy to lead on Eoin Harty's 10-1 chance as they disappeared from view, and she was still at the head of affairs approaching the last, fending off the strong challenge of Solita by half a length.

Madeleine Tylicki sent out her first winner as a trainer when First To Boogie (6-4 favourite) landed the Flynn And Lynch Life And Pensions Supporting Longford GAA Handicap Hurdle under Davy Russell.
