The Hong Kong Jockey Club will simulcast for betting the Japan Cup from Tokyo Racecourse during the Sha Tin race meeting on Sunday, 28 November (race time 2.40pm).

The Japan Cup (G1 2400m for 3yo+) was first run in 1981 and has built a reputation over the years for being one of the finest mile and a half contests in the world. A purse of 648 million yen (approximately HK$44 million) makes it the joint richest race in Japan alongside the Arima Kinen.

Final declarations with barrier draws for the Japan Cup will be available on Friday, 26 November.
