Paul Nicholls launched a successful raid on Hexham on Saturday and has two runners at another run-of-the-mill northern meeting. Zoran is the first but the Flat winner failed to land the odds on his hurdles bow at Plumpton and reportedly struggled with his breathing. Geromino won at Newcastle in March and only failed by a head to defy a penalty at Hexham but GORDON’S JET may have the greater scope and will have learned plenty from his win at Chepstow where he was novicey at a few of the obstacles. My Poem won on the all-weather for Sir Michael Stoute but is having a first run for Oliver Greenall.
