The changes, dates and details for the Turf Trials and All Weather Trials for Hong Kong and Conghua Racecourse from November 2018 to June 2019 are as follows:
- Due to the repairing and renovation programs scheduled in April 2019 to assist the preparation of the Champion’s Day and the recovery of summer grass on turf track in May 2019, the monthly griffin and turf trials will not be arranged at the Sha Tin turf track in April and May 2019.
- As such, two Happy Valley turf trials will be provided on Saturday 6 April and Friday 26 April 2019 respectively. Also, there will not be any Griffin trials scheduled at the Sha Tin course in June 2019 for course maintenance consideration.
- Whenever a CRC trial is arranged on a Friday, Sha Tin AWT trials will be scheduled on the preceding Thursday after the completion of jumpouts and stall tests at the 1800M Chute. If the Thursday falls on a public holiday or raceday, alternate AWT trials will not be provided at Sha Tin.
