GERRI COLOMBE was very impressive at Limerick over Christmas and can become just the second Irish-trained winner of this race. Nicky Henderson and Paul Nicholls have landed this Grade 1 prize 6 and 4 times respectively and their representatives, Balco Coastal and Monmiral, can give Gordon Elliott's charge most to think about.
