Newton Geronimo continued his progress when routing the opposition at Worcester but has been raised 15lb for his trouble. BYRON FLYER (NAP) has only a 5lb hike to contend with having also won at Worcester on his latest start when landing a Class 2 handicap. That looks stronger form than One More Go’s victories in maiden and novice company and Ian Williams’ charge gets the nod. Barry Geraghty is back on board the returning Hammersly Lake who is preferred to stablemates Forever Field and Cool Macavity while David Pipe’s Kalifourchon could go well raised only 3lb for winning over a longer trip here earlier in the month.
