Forecasts

Gerri Colombe (1/2), Highland Charge (9/4), Forged In Fire (7/1), Walter Grey (100/1), Ellens Angel (125/1), Sweet Scotch (300/1)

Verdict

GERRI COLOMBE marked himself down as a good prospect with an impressive debut win at Fairyhouse and is as short as 12/1 for the Champion Bumper at the Festival next month. Highland Charge showed a good attitude to win first time out and is feared most ahead of Forged In Fire, who beat Champion Bumper winner Ferny Hollow on sole start last season but has disappointed over hurdles this term.
