Sizing Europe registers cosy success

Sizing Europe has twice won at the Cheltenham Festival

Sizing Europe repeated last year's success in the Tied Cottage Chase at Punchestown...

Henry de Bromhead's classy 11-year-old didn't have to be at his best to comfortably dispose of his rivals and has now won all of his four starts this winter. Foildubh ran a good race to finish in second but could never get on terms with the long odds-on favourite.

The Champion Chase is just one of the options open to Sizing Europe and he trades at 8.88/1 to regain the crown he lost to Finian's Rainbow, though he would face a significant obstacle in the form of Sprinter Sacre.

Trainer Henry de Bromhead said: It hasn't really made any difference to where we'll go at Cheltenham - I'd say the Gold Cup is the outsider of the three options and we'll just see how everything unfolds.

"His most impressive win this year was probably the two-mile-four Clonmel Oil Chase.
