A winner at this meeting 12 months ago, GERRI COLOMBE ran the race of his life when finding only Galopin Des Champs too good in last month's Cheltenham Gold Cup and a repeat of that sort of performance can see Gordon Elliott's prolific 8-y-o prove a tough nut to crack here. That said, Shishkin, who missed the Festival, is likely to put up a bold bid to defend his crown, whilst 7-y-o Corbetts Cross, who ran out an authoritative winner of the NH Chase last month, is another to consider.
