It’s very interesting. For me it’s a busy schedule it was a busy scheudle becuase I set off from Shanghai at 9 am and got back to Shanghai on Sunday evening so for we arrived at beijing and some meeting was held at the moment, we rehearsaled out upcoming event, and at the midnight of saturday, we went back to our hotel and then the next day we organized the event. It was a very busy schedule.  Actually I didn’t have the opportunity to watch/see the race but I think it’s good but worse than Hong Kong’s, the horses can’t take a flight to Beijing, most of them are lived in China. The racer in Beijing master which were foreigner  the reace which were foreigner in beijing master can’t ride their own horse, (house) maybe the horse is living in China. Maybe the just have two days or three days, to meet their racing horse, their relationship between the racer and the horse are not familiar.

It’s very interesting. I had a  very busy schedule. I set off from Shanghai at 9 am and got back to Shanghai on Sunday evening so for we arrived at Beijing and we went directly into a meeting. We rehearsed for the upcoming event, and on Saturday at midnight, we went back to our hotel and then the next day we organized the event. It was a very busy schedule.  Actually I didn’t have the opportunity to watch/see the race but I think it was good but worse than Hong Kong’s. Foreign horses cannot pass quarantine or fly to Beijing, so the horses they used were all from China. The jockey’s who participated in the Beijing Master’s were  all foreigners,  and they were not allowed to ride their own horses. They just have two or three days to meet their racing horse, so the relationship between the racer and the horse is not familiar.
