About
At Punchestown R1, the Kildare Hunt Club Cross Country Chase for the Ladies Perpetual Cup was won by Fountain House, an 8yo bay trained by Ian McCarthy. Sired by Lucky Speed out of Cabra Cruizor, the horse has recorded ten victories to date. On 3 May 2025 at Punchestown, Fountain House secured its biggest triumph, collecting the £15,000 CHNHF prize. Punters have found the horse lucrative; backing it throughout its career would have generated a 42% return on investment.
