2026 Punchestown Gold Cup Entries
Gaelic Warrior ran out a hugely impressive winner of the Gold Cup at Cheltenham, and Willie Mullins' star is entered up at Punchestown. As is Fact To File, who beat Gaelic Warrior in the Irish Gold Cup, but missed the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham due to the fast ground conditions.
Inothewayurthinkin kept on from the rear to finish third in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, and seems like to take his chance at Punchestown. As does Grangeclare West, following his early unseat in the Grand National at Aintree.
Impaire Et Passe could make a quick reappearance, following a late fall when travelling well at Aintree. Grand National absentee Nick Rockett could also represent Willie Mullins, along with Aintree eighth Champ Kiely and former Grade One winner Lecky Watson.
Ben Pauling has handed an entry to King George VI Chase winner The Jukebox Man. Joseph O'Brien could be represented by Banbridge. Gordon Elliott has entered Grand National runners Gerri Colombe and Firefox. Spillane's Tower and Haiti Couleurs also feature in the Punchestown Festival entries.
