O'Brien and Moore land brace through Emily Dickinson Emily Dickinson looks to be on the path to the Gold Cup after winning the Listed Vintage Crop Stakes in Navan by five lengths. She tracked the 5/4 favourite French Claim over this 1m6f trip and made headway to lead over a furlong from home. The 11/8 shot drew clear in the final furlong for a decisive victory. This sealed a double on the card for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore who earlier teamed up with impressive juvenile newcomer River Tiber. O'Brien said: "She loves a trip and she relaxes, that's the key. She stays well and she has class as well. She's an exciting filly, she has a big engine. "The plan was to come here and then go to Leopardstown for the Saval Beg. Then, hopefully, she will go from there to the Gold Cup. "She is a filly that we always thought when she went beyond a mile and a half, we would see the best of her. "She handles an ease in the ground well but she also handles quick ground." Paddy Power made Emily Dickinson 4/1 from 6/1 for the Ascot Gold Cup and 12s from 25s for the Coronation Cup.
