This is a charity race with a range of abilities in and out of the saddle. Six-times winner STILL STANDING hasn't been in the best of form but has generally raced at a much higher level and has won over hurdles around here. Takarengo's close third at Leopardstown last month puts him in the frame while Telecon has been going well over hurdles and Tony Martin may be able to rekindle The Mouse Doctor, who won plenty of races for the yard in his early days.
