Hi,
Im thinking about going to watch the racing at Happy Valley this weekend but havn't got a clue about how much it costs to get in or what time everything starts. Does anyone know where i can find out this info?

Thank you

I'd recomend the public stands / beer garden area for a first timer.

Don't bet on horses that limp.

Weekend racing is held at Shatin racecourse. Happy Valley racing is on Wednesday evenings. The cheapest entrance is Gate G at Happy Valley and costs HK$10 to get in. Buy a South China Morning Post that day and take the section called 'Racing Post' with you.
Enjoy

If want to live it up get a tourist badge which lets you loose in the members section

If you alone or in a small group then the beer garden or the public enclosure can be daunting. Then head for www.hkadrenaline.com

I personally favour the Leading Edge 5th Floor which has a buffet and open bar : call 1817 for bookings [credit card]

Happy Valley is usually only racing on Wednesday eveings, and can be pretty boring on a weekend unless you don't mind watching Shatin racing on the tv.

in case you are going tonight
