Abstract: Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $h{o}_n=(n,n-1,n-2,ldots,1)$ be the ``staircase partition of size $N=n+1choose2$. The Saxl conjecture asserts that every irreducible representation $S^{l}ambda$ of the symmetric group $S_N$ appears as a subrepresentation of the tensor square $S^{h{o}_n}otimes{S}^{h{o}_n}$. In this short note we show that every irreducible representation of $S_N$ appears in the tensor cube $S^{h{o}_n}otimes{S}^{h{o}_n}otimes{S}^{h{o}_n}$.
