IT was great to see Robin Of Navan back in the winner’s enclosure for the first time since he won the Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud in November 2015. The French-bred colt ran out a handsome winner of last Saturday’s Group 3 La Coupe Longines.

Trained by Harry Dunlop and piloted by Cristian Demuro, the American Post colt was always well up and finally won under no pressure at all by a length from Garlingari, with the Chris Wall-trained First Sitting further back in third place.
