Did you know: Owned by an American lady called Betty Moran, unlike many future Aintree Grand National winners, Papillon did quite well as a young horse. Having won a maiden hurdle at Punchestown on his debut in February 1996, he was sent straight over fences the following season and made an immediate impact, winning a maiden chase and the Grade 3 EBF Novice Handicap Chase, both at Fairyhouse.
