Frau Georgia was a winner here in September but was pulled up at Uttoxeter after a break. Geryville has only gone up 2lb for scoring at Newcastle and Into Overdrive is on a roll, though will have to defy a further 5lb rise to complete the hat-trick. If Not For Dylan has been very consistent since the turn of the year and seems sure to be in the shake-up again but SEVEN NO TRUMPS will appreciate this quicker surface and is worth a try over this longer trip being a half-brother to a winning pointer.
