Notre Pere Odds and Grand National Form
Became the first Irish horse to win the Welsh National when a seven length victor from Cornish Sett at Chepstow in December 08 and was quickly installed towards the head of the market for the 2009 Grand National.
Connections voiced concerns about the viability of the likely ground at Aintree but any need for a decision was removed when injury intervened and Notre Pere was withdrawn in March of that year.
The Irish and Scottish Nationals were then mentioned as possible targets but the ground proved unsatisfactory on both occasions and the horse was prepared instead for his impressive win at the Punchestown Festival where he proved much too good for a very good field in the Guinness Gold Cup.
Since then Notre Pere has been disappointing going the whole of the 09/10 season without a win. This may be in some part due to a very heavy fall he took on his reappearance in 2009 when a short price favourite for the JNWine at Down Royal.
As a result he has dropped down the mark that he won the Welsh National from and could possibly now win another big race.
Notre Pere attempted the Aintree fences in the 2010 Becher Chase but met interference at a number of the obstacles and finishing a ditant fifth does not really tell connections if he is a live Grand National prospect.
