| MACAU RACECOURSE |
Macau racecourse can be found in Taipa and is run by the Macau Jockey Club which was established in 1980.
|
| In 1980 the Macau Trotting Club was formed but failed to
secure the popular support needed to make the venture a success and horse racing began in
1989, administered by the Macau Jockey Club. |
| The principal races are the Macau Derby, which is held each April, along with the Macau Sprint Trophy. In May it hosts the Macau Gold Cup over 1800 metres, while in June the Star of the Sand Stakes. |
| In 2008 the Macau Derby was run on the 28th April over 1800 metres and was won by the New Zealand bred Farson, ridden by Fausto Durso. The previous years 2007 Derby had been won by Ka Lam Fortune. |
