De Bromhead Sizing up victory

Punchestown will be the place to be next week. Hurricane Fly, Sir Des Champs, Quevega and Quito De La Roque will be among the galaxy of equine stars looking to finish their seasons on a high.

A tantalising week is in prospect with one of the highlights coming as early as day one. On Tuesday Sizing Europe will look to bring down the curtain on another stellar campaign by winning the Boylesports.com Champion Chase.

Henry de Bromhead is excited about the prospect of his stable star renewing his rivalry with Big Zeb. ‘‘Two great horses,’’ is his succinct assessment. ‘‘He beat us there last year so we’ll see how we go.’’
