Hong Kong Racetrack

[robfla]

I'm considering a trip to Hong Kong Dec 22 - Dec 30 ( approx )

couple questions:

is there live racing during this time?

any advise, thoughts on traveling to Hong Kong as a US citizen? I hear it is one of the safest places to travel.


Thanks

If you were able to rearrange travel dates for a couple of weeks earlier, you'd be in Hong Kong for the biggest day of the HK racing year.

The Cathay Pacific Hong Kong International meeting is held on a Sunday in the middle of the month. The exact date will be announced soon but it'll either be on the 12th or 19th (90% it'll be on the 12th).

No, it's not safe at all.

In fact i should probably hide in your suitcase and accompany you.

Saw in one of your posts you're going to HV on the 23rd...

Nice cause they're handing out free money that day.

She's one of a handful of girls in HK... a very small handful!

Anyway please wave to her when she wins for me.
