The Hong Kong Jockey Club will simulcast for betting the Tancred Stakes from Australia and eight races on Dubai World Cup Day on Saturday, 25 March.
Tancred Stakes from Australia (Sat 25 March – 13.00pm Hong Kong time)
The G1 Tancred Stakes, to be run at Rosehill Racecourse in Sydney, is Australia’s only weight-for-age 2400m Group One race open to three-year-olds and older. The winner is exempt from ballot for the prestigious G1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) and the G1 Sydney Cup (3200m) to be held during The Championships next month.
Dubai World Cup Day from UAE (Sat 25 March – 1st race 20.05pm Hong Kong time)
The Dubai World Cup meeting, now in its 27th edition, is one of the most anticipated sporting events with a huge global following. A host of top names from around the globe is set to contend for the US$30.5 million of prizemoney on offer.
After a three-year absence, Hong Kong-trained runners will once again return to this glamorous meeting. The five-prolonged charge is led by leading stayers Russian Emperor and Senor Toba in the G1 Dubai Sheema Classic where they will take on formidable equine stars such as the reigning Japanese Horse of The Year Equinox and Godolphin’s G1 Breeders’ Cup Turf champion Rebel’s Romance. Hong Kong sprinting duo Sight Success and Duke Wai will bid for glory in the G1 Al Quoz Sprint while Glorious Dragon will feature in the G1 Dubai Turf against strong international opposition.
Takamatsunomiya Kinen from Japan (Sun 26 March – 14.40pm Hong Kong time)
During the Sha Tin race meeting on Sunday, 26 March, the Takamatsunomiya Kinen (G1 1200m) will be simulcast live for betting from Chukyo Racecourse.
The Takamatsunomiya Kinen is open to four-year-olds and upwards and is one of only two Group 1 turf sprints in Japan. The feature offers total prize-money of approximately HK$21.5 million.
