TIPPERARY’s Denis Lynch demonstrated his strengths as he rode to victory in last Saturday evening’s five-star Longines Grand Prix at La Coruña in Spain. Riding Rubens LS La Silla, he recorded the only double clear and took home the winner’s prize of €75,900.

Lynch picked up the ride on 13-year-old stallion Rubens LS La Silla back in August when the horse was bought by Onyx Consulting Ltd, having previously been campaigned by Co Down’s Conor Swail.
