The Emirates Singapore Derby is known to be one of the most anticipated events on the local racing calendar. The running of the Group 1 Emirates Singapore Derby over 2,000m on turf at the Singapore Racecourse will commence on Sunday, 10 July 2016. For the very first time, two public roadshows were organised to bring about public awareness to racing fans as well as members of the public.
Jessie, my cousin and I went to the first day of the roadshow and met cookie there. Together, we took an instant photo for memory. There was a series of fun and interactive activities like horse feeding and horse petting which we've missed out.

We do, however get a chance to go up on stage for a Q&A and photo-taking session with the two Singapore Turf Club's mascots - Racer and Clover. My question that I answered correctly was, "Name the person who rides a horse." With that I won an Airbus A380 Fridge Magnet from Emirates.
Emirates is the title sponsor for the Singapore Derby and the longstanding partnership between Singapore Turf Club and Emirates has made Emirates Singapore Derby not only a premier racing event, but also a highly covetable social event as well.
My cousin and I also queue up to try our hands for the Horseshoe Pitching. None of the horseshoes that I threw even get close to the rod for scoring. It was tough even after we tried to imitate the way the experts threw. Was told that eventually, this game might be classify as a sports in the Olympics in future! First prize for the Horseshoe Pitching can get up to S$2,000.
