Singapore Horse Racing Results
The Lion City Cup is the premier race in Singapore, and is considered to be one of the country's premier domestic sprint races. The race is run on turf and is open to horses three years old and up. In 1990, War Plan won the race, which was televised in Hong Kong. Local racegoers were also treated to a telecast of the Hong Kong Derby. In 2001, Superb Effect won the race for the second time. In 2017, Lim's Cruiser defended his title and won the race again.
Singapore does not have a local breeding industry, so all of the thoroughbred bloodstock is imported from abroad. Most of the horses are imported from England, New Zealand, and Australia, while a few are from France and Ireland. Some horse owners purchase their horses from overseas breeders and send them to Singapore-based trainers. Jockeys are licensed by the Singapore Turf Club.
The Singapore Racecourse hosts several international and domestic races. It hosts a domestic Group One race in mid-July, which is held over 1800 metres. The race is open to three-year-old and older horses. The races are held annually. In recent years, it has been open to international runners.
Singapore's Turf Club Riding Centre (STCR) is one of the country's premier horse-riding facilities. It has a modern administration building and two world-class riding arenas. The centre also has a viewing gallery that can accommodate up to 250 spectators. The STCRC also has a world-class equine medical facility.
While watching horse races is a thrilling experience, it's important to understand the rules and be aware of the potential risks. Horse racing is a serious undertaking, and betting is not for novices. Proper analysis is necessary for the best bets. For this reason, it's best to choose a horse that's likely to win. The stakes involved in Singapore horse racing results are usually lower than in other races.
Singapore has a long and rich history of horse racing. Horses from different countries have won this country's major races. The race tracks' racing activities attract people from across the world. In Singapore, there are many equestrian facilities and stables. In addition to racing, there are also horse breeds available for purchase.
When considering a horse breed, you should consider its size. A yearling horse is born after the first of August. A stallion's size and speed makes it a desirable breeding horse. During the season of breeding, a stallion's body weight is higher than that of a gelding's. The latter will put more stress on the legs.
Another breed to consider is the Thoroughbred. Thoroughbreds are famous for their racing abilities and are the fastest breeds in the world. They are also known for their temperament.
