Sha Tin Races

Gambling at the School Christmas Party!

Not only did we have alcohol at the Back to School Night, but we went to the horse races and gambled at the Primary school Christmas Party.

This was my first experience at the races, and we were in a fancy box high above the track. The box was complete with tv screens that displayed information about the races, a wall of windows, a serving staff, and doors that opened up to an outside seating area.

We had a few big winners in our group! Sadly, I was not one of them. I won money steadily on the first three races that I bet on and then lost just as steadily on the last three. I only came out about $10 short though.

Next time I will try the Happy Valley races. The track isn't quite as fancy, but you are much closer to the action.
