HKJC-supported HK int'l horse show concludes

The Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show concluded on Sundayat AsiaWorld-Expo with three days of world-class competition featuring elite international riders alongside emerging Asian and local talents.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club, serving as strategic partner, supported the "M" Mark status event for the second consecutive year, providing technical expertise in horse transportation, stable management, veterinary and farriery services, and biosecurity oversight. The show also marked the launch of the Club’s Year of the Horse campaign, a year-long celebration of the enduring bond between horses and humans, reflecting Hong Kong’s spirit of perseverance and excellence.

The Club expanded community access by inviting youth and underprivileged groups to attend, while also debuting the inaugural HKJC Asian Youth Challenge, highlighting the next generation of equestrian champions. An interactive booth allowed visitors to explore equestrian disciplines and meet jockeys and riders, further deepening public engagement.

Equestrian sport has long been central to the Club’s mission, from retraining retired racehorses and operating public riding schools to providing technical and logistical support for major international events, including the Beijing 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Guangzhou 2010 Asian Games, Hangzhou 2022 Asian Games and the 15th National Games in the Greater Bay Area last year. The Club’s continued dedication underscores its role in advancing equestrianism in Hong Kong and the GBA.
