REBECCA Coonan and Jantar posted a smart seasonal hat-trick when they landed the CNCJ* from the front (31.5). Never looking like surrendering their early advantage, the duo completed six marks ahead of Julia Crowe, who, aboard the diminutive Castlequarter Rambo, delivered the only other clear round (37.5). Co Wexford’s Joanne Corish also went well, but with one show jump on the floor, slipped to third with the thoroughbred Shuil Coillte.
