de Bromhead Sizing up options Henry de Bromhead's potentially high-class novice chaser Sizing Rio is set to reappear at Leopardstown over the Christmas period, where he will have a choice of options. The five-year-old is two from two over fences, with wins at Tipperary and an impressive front-running display in Grade 3 company at Cork last Sunday. De Bromhead said: "I was delighted with him at Cork and like him a lot. Hopefully he turns out to be as good as we think, and he certainly didn't do anything wrong the other day. "The novice options between now and Christmas are mainly Grade Ones, so we may wait until Leopardstown for either the two-mile or the three-mile Grade One. He'll be entered for both. "We'll try to get him to the spring with a bit of experience without running him every month." Also set for Leopardstown is stable star Sizing Europe, who will drop back in trip having again run a gallant race in defeat over three miles in the JNwine.com Champion Chase at Down Royal. De Bromhead said: "He's been in good form since Down Royal, and the plan now is to step back in trip and do what we know he's good at. The Paddy Power Dial-A-Bet Chase at Leopardstown over Christmas will probably be his next run, but I'll have to discuss it with the owners (Alan and Ann Potts)."
