Have a Wednesday in Hong Kong? Go to Happy Valley and let your pre-party be an evening at the racetrack. Horse racing is the only legal form of gambling in Hong Kong, thus making it a hot spot for both rich and poor.
I make it a point to head to the race tracks every time I’m in the city, and this time was no exception.
