This is a charity race with varying degrees of ability in and out of the saddle. Jessica Harrington has three entries and Hell Bent won the Cork Derby the last time he ran in June. Stablemate JUNGLE COVE landed handicaps at Leopardstown and Ascot last summer and will be ready after a pipe-opener at Limerick a week ago. Stuzzikini has been going well over timber and won at Kilbeggan last week but the once-useful Dalton Highway was beaten a long way at Gowran recently on his return from a very long break. Cafe Con Leche never got interested over timber at Ballinrobe and eventually refused at the last but he was a convincing winner at Limerick on his previous start.
