Formscan By Michael Graham - GERRI COLOMBE showed some of his back class when runner-up in a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse last month. He returns to a venue where is two from three and he ought to give Jack Kennedy a good spin. Nick Rockett needs this run to qualify for the Grand National at Aintree which he memorably landed last year. It is reasonable to assume that he will come on from the run as he hasn't been out since that famous Aintree success. Perceval Legallois looks clear next best in this small field, while the admirable Roi Mage won this race four years ago but is a 14-year-old now.
