Goliath returned to winning ways in La Coupe at Paris Longchamp on Sunday. The race has been won by the likes of Cirrus des Aigles, No Risk at All and Robin of Navan. It was a good piece of placement, but other than confirming his fitness, we didn't learn a great deal more about him. Here's why;

She is a Wootton Bassett filly and there are several Black Type performers in her immediate pedigree. That will surely be the first aim with her now.

There can be no doubt that the form of those behind him will leave this open to question in the future.

Visually she appeared to be a pattern class performer and the data from the race would appear to back up that opinion.

A pair of fascinating debutantes races from Saint-Cloud on Friday.
