Horse Racing Ireland (HRI) has announced a new annual racing membership for 18 to 25-year-olds. HRI Racing25 is open to all full-time students and anyone aged 18 to 25 and is available at www.hri.ie.

Membership costs €25 and allows members free entry to five key racedays from a selection of 21 racedays around the country including Navan on Saturday, Clonmel Oil Day, Kerry Group Hilly Way Chase Day at Cork Racecourse Mallow, Super Sunday at Tipperary in October, Fairyhouse Winter Festival and Christmas Racing at Leopardstown.

In addition, HRI Racing25 members will also have access to exclusive behind the scenes trips to racing yards, stud farms and meet and greet opportunities with racing stars. Members will also be offered reduced admission for additional premium racedays.

The first trip of 2020 for HRI Racing25 members is a stable tour to trainer Joseph O’Brien’s yard in Owning, Kilkenny on Friday January 24.

Places on the trip are limited and are allocated on a first come, first served basis.
