Surging Forward

Hong Kong’s racing fans were unfazed in their passion for the sport during the 2020/21 season

The 2020/21 racing season speaks volumes about Hong Kong’s resilience and unique appeal. Despite the many challenges brought on by the pandemic, we managed to overcome all the obstacles while creating several thrilling triumphs along the way. Through all the nail-biting action, record breaking moments, numerous milestones and glories at the Racecourses, the spirit of our champions shone bright and served as a ray of hope for both local and international sporting communities.

With meticulous planning and execution, we were also able to successfully host one of the biggest international events on the racing calendar – the LONGINES Hong Kong International Races – back in December. As we wrap up yet another exhilarating season with the Champion Awards Presentation, we applaud the success of Golden Sixty (金鎗六十) as Horse of the Year, and the crowning of Joao Moreira as Champion Jockey and Caspar Fownes as Champion Trainer, as well as Tony Cruz Award winner Vincent Ho and all the other award recipients this year.

We look forward to more successes in the coming season.
