Europe among Champion entries Sizing Europe, winner of the BetVictor Queen Mother Champion Chase in 2011, features among 26 entries for the race at the Cheltenham Festival on March 12. His trainer Henry De Bromhead has also entered Special Tiara in the two-mile chase championship, which has attracted a total of nine Irish entries. Last year's Arkle runner-up Baily Green, Tony Martin's Benefficient and Savello, Willie Mullins' pair of Arvika Ligeonniere and Twinlight and John Hanlon's Hidden Cyclone are all also engaged, along with last year's Grand Annual winner Alderwood. Nicky Henderson's reigning champion Sprinter Sacre remains the standout contender but has questions to answer at present after being diagnosed with a fibrillating heart on his first start of the season when pulled up at Kempton. Henderson has also entered Captain Conan, Kid Cassidy and French Opera. Paul Nicholls has given King George third Al Ferof the option and has also entered his top-class novices Dodging Bullets and Hinterland. Sire De Grugy took advantage of Sprinter Sacre's ailments at Christmas and is a possible for Gary Moore.
