TRACEY Collins recently invited the INS students, class of 2019 to visit her training stables at Conyngham Lodge. Having been so impressed with the students, she generously offered to lease her mother’s there-year-old homebred filly Independent Missy to them for her first outing at the Curragh on the Friday of the Guineas meeting.

It was a great opportunity for the students to experience racehorse ownership and, with the help of HRI Horse Ownership Department, the filly ran in their designated colours.
