IF you enjoy the thrill of racing, why not take up the opportunity to join in and experience the adrenaline rush that comes with watching your own horse winning. A new Co Meath-based club offers everyone the hands-on pleasure of horse ownership for less than the cost of two pints each week.

The Royal Racing Club really is a social club that brings racing fans together as they visit the stables to see their five horses and spend the day at the races as owners. Members share their horses’ journey seeing them work and train at home, then hopefully enjoy together the thrill of a race win.
