Head to where the action is! Nothing beats watching a thrilling horse race at the Singapore Turf Club. The Singapore Turf Club (STC), renowned for its horse-racing, is the oldest existing club in Singapore. It was founded by Scottish merchant William Henry Macleod Read and began as the Singapore Sporting Club on 4 October 1842. The 81.2 hectares Singapore Racecourse ranks among the premier racecourses in the world and boasts some “firsts” such as the racetrack that features a mixture of El Toro-Zoysia and local Bermuda Couch grass. It also has a glass-sided horsewalk which runs through the grandstand and connects the parade ring to the racetracks.

Racing is conducted in the evenings under spectacular floodlights on Friday, and in the afternoons on Sunday.

Great short tour outside Singapore.

Carl J Bartholomew

Little did we realize when we booked this tour that we would have unobstructed "finish line" seats at the annual Gold Cup Race. We told the tour guide we had a pickup for dinner at 6pm and he arranged for us to watch the final Gold Cup race before taking us directly at our next tour site rather than us having to go back to the hotel. We were VERY impressed with this tour! It was the highlight of our stay in Singapore.

A GREAT DAY TO SPEND AN AFTERNOON AT SINGAPORE RACES. oNLY WISH I COULD PICK WINNERS

Helen J Cook

There was only 3 of us on the tour. Our guide was very informative on the meeting,on the betting procedure. All were very helpful to me as I have a hip problem and the coach driver/ tourguide organised a golf cart to take all 3 of of us right to the door. Our little lucky charm did it's work & I had a reasonabale collect. My race book will be a good momento also. Thoroughly enjoyed the night except for the food - cost very good but would have like to seen a small selection of western food also. Everything was on time from pick up to return. Thanks.
