RACING YOUR HORSE
|
With your trainer appointed and the horse in training you are on track for the track. Depending on the rate of progress it may be time to register with Horse Racing Ireland. New owners are registered every Monday - provided the application is received, in order, by the previous Friday - club and company registrations may take up to four weeks to finalise.

What owner format suits you?
Firstly you need to establish what type of ownership best suits you. This often depends on how you wish to appear on the racecard. For example if it is simply an individuals name then sole ownership is the way to go. If there are a couple of people involved a partnership may be more suitable as either the individual’s names or a “partnership” name can be used and so on depending on the situation.

How to open your HRI acount?
Regardless of what format you choose every owner, trainer and jockey must open a HRI account. To open this account please return the appropriate registration forms with the minimum opening balance of €1000 to HRI. All cheques and drafts should be made payable to HRI. If you choose to email or fax your applications please give clear instruction as to how you wish to make the initial payment. HRI can accept credit card payments by phone. An initial deduction from the opening balance will be made for registration fees (colours, owner registration, partnership fee etc) and then the balance will remain in the account to cover entry and riding expenses. You will receive an itemised statement each month. Your HRI account can be “topped up” with cash, cheque/draft or by credit/debit card. Please retain the account number for your convenience. |
