FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - SIZING COAL is back to the scene of his 3rd placing in the 2015 Irish Grand National. Wins at Sligo, and a brace 'between the flags,' have been the high points for the Presenting ten-year-old since, but he could be poised to strike here too under Jamie Codd. Sizing Coal showed himself to be in good nick recently when scoring in the locality to Fairyhouse - at Oldtown on February 11th. After he'd beaten the only other finisher then in an open by a distance, Jim Dreaper's son Tom said: "That was brilliant. We intentionally decided not to go to Punchestown, to try and get his head in front. He is now qualified for the Foxhunters at Cheltenham but I don't know if he is up to that level. We will mix hunter chasing and point-to-points with him for the rest of the season but I don't think he will go across to England." As an aside Dreaper revealed: "The Ward Unions hunted through our land on Friday. Sizing Coal and his buddy jumped out of their paddocks to join them and it took us over an hour to catch the two of them."
