Henry de Bromhead is no nearer to deciding whether to let Sizing Europe return to Cheltenham for another tilt at the Queen Mother Champion Chase.

The 2011 champion chaser brought the house down on his first start of the campaign when winning the PWC Champion Chase at Gowran Park for a fourth time, beating leading Gold Cup contender Road To Riches, but has not been seen since disappointing in the Clonmel Oil Chase in November.

De Bromhead said: "We haven't decided whether Europe will go or not yet. It will be a late one (decision).

"We'll see how he is and what the ground is like and so on."

The County Waterford-based trainer looks set to send a small but select team of horses across the water next week.

Sizing John, not sighted since winning the Future Champions Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas, is one such horse as he gears up for a tilt at the Supreme.

"Sizing John is in good form and he'll go for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle," said De Bromhead.

"Smashing will run in the Arkle, Grand Jesture goes for the three-mile handicap (Ultima Business Solutions Handicap Chase) and Bishops Road will run in the novice handicap (CHAPS Restaurant Barbados Novices' Handicap Chase). That's the team for the first day.

"Special Tiara will go for the Champion Chase on the second day and Supasundae will run in the Champion Bumper.

"That's about as far as we've got at the moment."

Supasundae is a particularly intriguing contender, having previously won for Andrew Balding and Tim Fitzgerald, including in a Listed bumper at Ascot, before being snapped up by De Bromhead's main patrons, Alan and Ann Potts.

"He seems a nice horse, so we're looking forward to him," said the trainer.

Call The Cops is likely to be given the chance to follow up his impressive win at Doncaster on Saturday in the Pertemps Network Final at the Cheltenham Festival next Wednesday.

The Nicky Henderson-trained six-year-old was having just his second start of the season and was expected to improve for the outing on his first run over three miles.

However, he ran away with jockey Andrew Tinkler throughout and bounded clear to win by five lengths.

"I'd gone away for a few days in Tenerife and couldn't believe watching it on TV how easily he won," said owner Matt Morgan.

"We thought Batavir would take a lot of beating and that we'd need the run, but the favourite didn't run his race and our lad loved being back on ground ground.

"Nicky says he's absolutely bouncing and that he didn't have a hard race.

"All things being equal, and everything going to plan, I reckon we'll be running."

Cheltenham clerk of the course Simon Claisse has not ruled out the possibility of watering during the meeting.

While Claisse is content with the current state of the ground, temperatures are set to rise towards the end of the week and with little rain forecast, the ground looks set to dry out.

"The ground on the Old Course which is used for the first two days is good to soft, soft in places and it is the same on the cross-country course," he said.

"The New Course is slightly quicker and is good to soft. We are forecast some heavy showers for the next two days, some wintry but only two to three millimetres in total and then it is due to get significantly warmer towards the end of the week.

"The forecast says it could be 6C or 7C overnight and double figures through the day but there is no sign of any more rain beyond Wednesday.

"It's looking like Festival week will be warm and dry with chilly nights, but there are currently no signs we'll see the frost covers.

"Watering through the week is a possibility. We aim to start with ground on the slow side of good, it is difficult to know how fast the ground will dry out, though, so we may need to water through the week which we have done five or six times in the last 14 years."
