Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.The Singapore Turf Club was founded in 1842 as the Singapore Sporting Club to operate the Serangoon Road Race Course at Farrer Park. It is today the only horse-racing club in Singapore and is part of the Malayan Racing Association, which also regulates the three Turf Clubs in Malaysia, the Selangor Turf Club, Penang Turf Club and Perak Turf Club The Singapore Turf Club is the only authorised operator of horse racing, and totalisator (horse betting) services in Singapore. The first race was held on 23 February 1843 when prizemoney on offer was only $150. In 1924, the Club changed its name to the Singapore Turf Club. This was done to reflect its role as a horse racing club more accurately. The Club moved to Bukit Timah in 1933 before relocating to its present location at the Singapore Racecourse at Kranji in 1999. Racing is staged all-year round on either Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, or Wednesdays.
