This week's Calves Week Class Zero entrant, the J122 Jelly Baby, won Sunday's seven-hour SCORA Kinsale to Baltimore Race.

Just three boats, all from Royal Cork Yacht Club, made the line for the race, postponed until Sunday due to weather. 

The Brian Jones skippered big boat won in both IRC and ECHO with Kieran O'Brien and Fiorentina Carroll's MG335, Magnet second in both handicap divisions. Third was Ronan Twomey's Rosmarina.

As Afloat reported previously, Jelly Baby will be in a five-boat battle for Class Zero honours at Calves Week that starts on Tuesday, August 8th.
