Geraghty set for Diamond sparkler

Barry Geraghty has been formally booked to partner Diamond Harry in the William Hill King George VI Chase at Kempton on St Stephen's Day, where all eight confirmed entries have been declared to run.

Geraghty, who landed the Christmas highlight in 2004 and 2005 aboard Kicking King, steps in for the plum spare ride on the Nick Williams-trained eight-year-old, owned by the Paul Duffy Diamond Partnership and winner of last season’s Hennessy Gold Cup.
