Sha Tin Racecourse, Horse racing stadium in Sha Tin District, Hong Kong.

The racing complex contains two grandstands with a total capacity of 85,000 spectators, along with stables capable of housing 1,260 horses.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club inaugurated the Sha Tin Racecourse in October 1978 to supplement the existing Happy Valley facility due to growing racing demand.

The racecourse holds 474 events per season, including international competitions like the Hong Kong Cup, Hong Kong Mile, and Hong Kong Derby.

The facility includes an equine hospital, racing laboratory, swimming pool for horses, and riverside training track for comprehensive racing operations.

Penfold Park, a public green space, sits within the center of the racing track, creating an unusual combination of sporting venue and recreational area.
