Loosen bids to maintain perfect start Loosen My Load is out to extend his perfect record over fences in Thursday's Buck House Novice Chase at Punchestown. Henry de Bromhead's promising youngster has been faultless in his two previous races over the bigger obstacles and faces a step up in class to Grade Three company. Inevitably, comparisons will be drawn between stable companion Sizing Europe, who took this race en-route to winning the Arkle last season, but the trainer is in no rush to commit to the same plan with the six-year-old. "I thought he was very good at Listowel, apart from getting a bit close to the second-last I thought he jumped perfect," said De Bromhead. "Sizing Europe won this last year, but we'll see how we go with this fellow and take every race as it comes. "People will compare the two and they are both very good horses and we are lucky to have them. "Sizing Europe went into good hurdle races after his novice season and then went chasing, but this fellow has gone straight from novice hurdles to novice chases. "I'm not sure what trip he wants. He won his beginners chase over two and a half so he probably will get a bit further, but he jumps so well that we'll stick to shorter trip for the time being," he told At The Races.
