Sizing Europe wins Arkle

Sizing Europe maintained his unbeaten record over fences with a impressive display in the Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy at Cheltenham.

Sizing Europe shook off the memory of Champion Hurdle disappointment two years ago as he ran out an impressive winner of the Irish Independent Arkle Challenge Trophy at Cheltenham.

The eight-year-old let down favourite backers in 2008 when tailed off in the hurdling blue riband but switched to fences, he has come right back to form.
