STRUGGLE no more to find a Christmas present for the sports-mad fan who has everything, or perhaps for your Dad, who can be notoriously hard to buy for.

Membership of the Irish National Stud’s new horse racing club is the perfect Christmas present as it makes the possibility of racehorse ownership a reality for those who previously thought it was something they couldn’t afford.

The club enables sports fans to experience what it is like to ‘own’ a minimum of six racehorses, all for the annual cost of €399.

INS Racing owners will enjoy some fantastic days out at Ireland’s best race meetings. The gift is presented in a keepsake box and includes free racecourse entry to every meeting which includes an Irish National Stud declared racehorse in Ireland, regular trainer updates via a bespoke INS Racing app, access to yard visits, educational workshops, special events and, as a bonus, a share of the club’s prize money.

SEASON TICKET

Also included for the €399 annual membership is a season ticket to the Irish National Stud & Gardens worth €48, a 2019 calendar of events, an Irish National Stud racing pin and an information booklet about the club’s horses in training.

INS Racing has been developed by the Irish National Stud, with the support of Horse Racing Ireland, to grow the sport in Ireland and allow fans to get much closer to the action.

Chanelle McCoy has become one of the first members of INS Racing, having officially launched the new initiative.
