💨 Abstract

Singapore's Singapore Turf Club held its final horse race on October 5, marking the end of over 180 years of horse racing in the city-state. The 120-hectare racecourse will be handed back to the government for redevelopment by 2027 to meet housing, leisure, and recreational demands. The crowd included retiree Lawrence Phua, who had helped sell horse racing guidebooks as a boy.
