succeed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'follow on' is the first definition.
'succeed' can be an answer for 'follow' (synonyms). I am unsure of the 'on' bit.

'win' is the second definition.
(I know that win can be written as succeed)

'and' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for succeed that I've seen before include "Achieve a purpose" , "Come after; attain fame" , "Do very well" , "Achieve the desired result" , "Take over a title from (someone)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
