The concluding Dunsany Bumper at Navan today went to the Henry De Bromhead trained Sizing Gold winning in the colours of Champion Chaser Sizing Europe.
Ridden by Davy Roche, the son of Flemensfirth showed plenty of resolution on the run-in to eventually hold off the challenge of newcomer Defy Logic
Afterwards De Bromhead said “that was great, we have always liked him and we thought his first run was very good , but he just got a bit tired on the turn-in at Punchestown.
“We were hoping he would improve but he is a big scopey chaser so we backed off him after his debut and brought him back. I’m delighted he got a great ride from Davey - he is super for his 5lbs claim and any time we fancy one he does the job.
“The sensible option is to put Sizing Gold out in a field now but we’ll see.”
