Quote:
SIZING EUROPE put in a spectacular round of jumping toscore a convincing victory in the prestigious Tingle Creek Chase.
Quote:
Winning trainer De Bromhead added: "He was a bit slow at the second down the back and I got a bit worried, but then he was brilliant and just winged fences. He then did his normal thing where whenever the others start struggling he starts cantering. He is an amazing horse.

Sandown, Saturday

Markel Insurance Henry VIII Novices' Chase (Grade 1) 2m, 4yo+

Quote:
AL FEROF made it two from two over fences with victory at Sandown on Saturday but the 4-11 favourite was made to battle for the win by the Nick Williams-trained For Non Stop, who pushed the John Hales-owned winner all the way to the line
Quote:
Jockey Ruby Walsh was keen to utilise the stamina of last year’s Supreme Novices’ Hurdle hero and for the first time asked his mount to stretch clear. Despite gaining a couple of lengths on the field turning in, Al Ferof was unable to shake off the attentions of For Non Stop.
