The guy that calls the races for the Hong Kong Jockey Club is the best. “The Voice” has always been horrible. Too loud. Too obnoxious. Too slow for the flow of the race. And in his old age. He should just enjoy the nursing home.

Correct on 'the voice'!  He has been announcing for 50+ years, it isn't too difficult to watch/listen to his calls over this time period and judge for yourselves!

 Just like petrellie , it's all about "Depends"
Best time of year watch the young horses racing for great money. Nothing better than following the horses, going to wherever their next stake is, with family.

This is the weakest Adios card in memory.

I agree Frankie. Most of the actual Adios races have been diminished since they moved it
up , making it too close to NAC + M[1] Pace, but the this card is pretty puny. The boys will
have to be steppin to get to M[1] with the Adios being carded as the 15th race. Seems like
they used to put it about the 10th or so but I think they found that a number of people left.
No pic 3's anymore either.
