Cottage tied up again for Europe

Cottage tied up again for Europe

Sent off at 1/8, Sizing Europe made every yard of he running, was deliberate at a few fences, but stretched clear on the approach to the final fence and came home, to warm applause from an appreciative crowd, 10 lengths clear to complete back-to-back wins in the event under Andrew Lynch.

“That was good. It was a bit of a slog, but he did what he had to do,” stated Henry de Bromhead afterwards. “He looked very idle in front on ground that he wouldn’t be mad about. His jumping was sufficient and he got the job done.”
