Picture this.
It’s a warm February afternoon at Sha Tin. The low murmur of anticipation rolls through the racecourse, phones already raised, eyes fixed on the track. Everyone senses it – this isn’t just another Group 1. This is one of those days that racing fans remember for decades.
Down at the start, Ka Ying Rising is circling. Seventeen straight wins. Level with Silent Witness. One more and Hong Kong racing history changes forever.
Now picture where you’re standing.
You’re at Sha Tin Racecourse, on the balcony at Genso, positioned perfectly as Ka Ying Rising will thunder past the Silent Witness statue – the symbol of a record set in 2005 – and surge straight into history.
And you were there.
The Best Seat For A Big Moment
Genso sits on the 3rd and 4th floors of Grandstand II – with the outdoor viewing terrace opening out above the Sha Tin forecourt. It’s the kind of spot people flock to for the atmosphere: sparkling drinks on ice, specialty cuisines, and live music sets that keep the energy humming between races.
But on February 22, the vibe comes with a bonus: position. You’re not tucked away behind glass or watching from a distance. You’re on the terrace, close enough to feel the pace and hear the crowd lift as the horses thunder past.
On a day when Ka Ying Rising could make history, that “chill” setting turns into one of the most unforgettable places to witness it.
On February 22, the Group 1 Queen’s Silver Jubilee Cup becomes more than a race. It becomes a bridge between eras.
Silent Witness’s 17 consecutive wins once felt untouchable. Now Ka Ying Rising stands shoulder to shoulder with that legacy, chasing a moment that will echo through Hong Kong racing for generations.
