Grand Du Nord joined our list of bumper winners for this season when staying on strongly up the hill at Hexham on Monday afternoon, to win a decent looking bumper for the track, by a length under Billy Garritty.
Grand Du Nord made quite an impressive debut two runs back at Newcastle, when staying on into fourth, but on his return to the track in February, could only manage 10th place, although only beaten by six and three quarter lengths. This was his first start on grass, and he is definitely a horse to keep on the right side of.
