Geraghty fit for Kicking King date

BARRY GERAGHTY has been passed fit to ride former Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Kicking King in The Star “Best For Racing Coverage” Chase at Punchestown tomorrow.

Geraghty aggravated an old injury in a fall at Fairyhouse on Saturday which forced him to miss his rides in the Munster National meeting at Limerick on Sunday – costing him two winners.

But after a visit to orthopaedic surgeon Paddy Kenny, the leading rider was given the all-clear.
