WITH the closing date for the Tattersalls’ George Mernagh Memorial bursary rapidly approaching, one of the 2014 recipients, Janet Murray, relates how she used her €5,000 bursary.

“Having spent a lifetime with horses, there is nothing to equal the joy of producing a young talented horse and realising their potential particularly for a homebred. I was asked in 2007 to manage the young event horses for the WBFSH Young Event Horse Championships at Le Lion d’Angers and it seemed a good fit,” she says.
