Every week The Irish Field interviews a racehorse owner and gives them an opportunity to air their views on the sport.

Edited by Olivia Hamilton and supported by the Association of Irish Racehorse Owners, The Owner column asks owners such questions as :

>How did you get into racehorse ownership?

>What was your best day at the races and why?

>What qualities do you look for in a trainer?

>What would help to make Irish racing more competitive for the smaller owner/trainer?

>Tell us about your horses.

>Do you prefer flat or jump racing, and why?

>How have you been treated as an owner on the racecourse?

If you would like to be considered for a future column please contact Olivia Hamilton at oliviahamilton@theirishfield.ie or call 01 405 1149.
