Sizing Europe thriving after final workout

Sizing Europe passed his final serious test before the sportingbet.com Queen Mother Champion Chase with a satisfactory workout at the Curragh yesterday.

Trainer Henry de Bromhead said the reigning champion chaser thrived in a 10-furlong spin under regular jockey Andrew Lynch.

De Bromhead will now tread a cautious path with the 10-year-old before setting sail for Cheltenham on Sunday.
