McMahon & Enright strike again with Sizing Malbay

Brian McMahon and Phillip Enright successfully teamed up for the second day in succession at Punchestown as Sizing Malbay landed the Baltreacy Handicap Chase.
The same trainer/jockey combination were on the mark with Powersbomb in the featured Ladbrokes Handicap Chase here yesterday and added to their haul here with a new recruit to the Galway yard.
The 9/1 chance, available at 12/1 early in the day, led over the last and kept on really well in the closing stages to score by two and three quarter lengths.
The well-backed 2/1 favourite Robin De Roost took the runner-up spot by a head from Fill The Tank
Enright said, “She’s won two hurdles and is running off her hurdle mark today. She jumped well and travelled well all the way.
“She’d a nice run in Kilbeggan on her first run for Brian McMahon. He thought she had improved a bit from that and that she might be competitive.
“Brian has done a great job with her. He’s a great supporter of mine and a very good trainer. Hopefully he’ll get more recognised for it.”
