Rare Bob Odds and Grand National Form 2013
Useful handicapper for Dessie Hughes who managed to win a 42k race at Leopardstown in 2010/11.
All Rare Bobs wins have come on soft or heavy ground but that is not to say that this is horse is a mudlark as he has run some fine races on good ground. He has finished fourth in an Irish National as well as running fine races in the John Smiths Handicap at Aintree in 2010 and again last year. This shows that good ground would not be a handicap to him in the Grand National. More of a concern would be the form he showed at the track when tackling the Becher Chase. Rare Bob's trainer Dessie Hughes has a fine record in that race and so Rare Bob's participation was highly anticipated but he weakened badly after the third last and was beaten over sixty lengths into fifth place.
Dessie Hughes record over the Aintree fences in recent years would mean that this horse deserves consideration but his performance in the Becher Chase would dampen enthusiasm.
