Race For Gold

Race For Gold

Some of the city's most elite racehorses will convene at Sha Tin Racecourse on Sunday 1 March, vying for the Citi Hong Kong Gold Cup.
The second leg of Hong Kong's Triple Crown, this 2000-metre middle-distance race is sure to draw powerful contenders from the leading stables. The battle of champions is about to unfold!
Last season’s Triple Crown champion, Voyage Bubble, will face a strong challenge from the history‑making eight‑year‑old star galloper Romantic Warrior this season. In the first leg of the Triple Crown, the Stewards’ Cup, Romantic Warrior has already struck first with a decisive victory. A clash of two champions is about to unfold — a showdown no racing fan should miss!
We invite all horse racing fans to witness a crowning moment of G1 Champion.
