Horse racing is Hong Kong's popular sport.

In times of economical downturn, one tradition remains strong in Hong Kong: the hope for good luck.


More than 1 million people place USD 27.5 million in bets each race day in the South-Chinese metropole. Crowds pack the stands at Shatin and Happy valley where average attendence is approx. 46,000 people.


There is no better place to study expressions of joy and disappointment, of sucess and failure.
