Verdict

GERANIUM produced a late surge over track and trip to open her account last month and there looks more to come on that evidence. Hughie Morrison’s filly is preferred to another recent winner in Directory, who beat the re-opposing Roman Warrior over course and distance though the latter has disappointed subsequently. Reshaan finished closer over 7f here last time while Extra Large is a one to note now handicapping for the first time, though Exeat has the stronger form in novice company.
