How did you get into racehorse ownership?

I was brought up in Carlow and my father John was always involved in racing. He had horses in training with Paddy Mullins who was a neighbour of ours and my father also bred a few. Kiltotan and Swift Serenade were two horses he raced. One he bred was Straight Fort who won the two-mile Champion Chase at Cheltenham for Tom Dreaper in 1970.
