FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Local hope JIVING JERRY might be up to defying top-weight, with in-form pilot Simon Torrens in the plate. The seven pound hike the selection received for winning at Killarney last time shouldn’t be insurmountable, and runner-up there, Mick Charlie, has run well for another silver medal since. By Jeremy out of a Topanoora mare, Jiving Jerry should be well equipped to deal with whatever going he’ll face here. He’s only five and there may be more to come. There was simply no living with Scalino at Punchestown on September 9th, when Badness Backfires finished a thirteen length second. The third horse that afternoon, Casamari Abbey, triumphed at Clonmel on Thursday, so the chance of Badness Backfires has to be taken very seriously. Among the others with a chance is Crack On Corrie.
