Hong Kong’s long affiliation with horses goes back to the mid-19th century, when the first official race meeting was held at the Happy Valley Racecourse in December 1846.
There are various equine-themed events planned around town to celebrate the coming Year of the Horse, both at and outside the racecourse. Here are three that are worth checking out.
