Enjoy Responsibly made every post a winning one as he sprang a 20/1 shock in great style in the €30,000 Bourn Vincent Memorial Handicap Chase at Killarney.

David Mullins gave the Gigginstown gelding a peach of a ride from the front as he jumped for fun in the 2m1f feature contest.

The Henry De Bromhead-trained gelding had his rivals on the stretch jumping the third last and a spectacular leap at the last sealed things as he went on for a 10-length win over Sizing Solution

The winner had been well held over hurdles at Kilbeggan on his last outing having also been down the field previously over fences at Punchestown.

"That was a super performance and David gave him a super ride," said de Bromhead.

"He had been a bit disappointing but he just loves jumping and his good run at Aintree (5th in Grade 3 Red Rum Handicap Chase) would have been enough if he repeated it, which he did.

"He'll go for the 2m1f handicap chase at Galway next."
