|} The Punchestown Gold Cup is a Grade 1 National Hunt chase in Ireland which is open to horses aged five years or older. It is run at Punchestown over a distance of about 3 miles and 1 furlong (5,029 metres), and during its running there are seventeen fences to be jumped. The race is scheduled to take place each year during the Punchestown Festival in late April or early May. The present version of the race was introduced in 1999, when it replaced a previous version for novice chasers only. It was formerly sponsored by Heineken, and it used to be known as the Heineken Gold Cup. It was backed by Diageo between 2005 and 2011, and from 2011 to 2014 sponsored by Tote Ireland - the title promotes the tote.com. Since 2014 the race has been sponsored by Bibby Financial Services. The Punchestown Gold Cup usually features horses which ran previously in the Cheltenham Gold Cup. The last to win both races in the same year was War of Attrition in 2006. ==Records== Most successful horse (2 wins): * Neptune Collonges – ''2007, 2008'' ---- Leading jockey since 1999 (5 wins): * Ruby Walsh – ''Imperial Call (1999), Commanche Court (2000), Neptune Collonges (2007, 2008), Boston Bob (2014)'' ---- Leading trainer since 1999 (3 wins): * Willie Mullins - ''Florida Pearl (2002), Sir Des Champs (2013), Boston Bob (2014)'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Punchestown Gold Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
