For Syndicates and Partnerships, a maximum of 4 seats can be booked for the managers/members/partners of the horse. Grandstand II Car Park will be closed on that day. Owners may park their cars at the Sha Tin Clubhouse Car Park on a first-come, first-served basis. Besides, MTR East Rail Line will not stop at the Racecourse Station.
