    <dc:creator>jnchapel</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["China's legions of millionaires are likely candidates to afford an €85,000 breeding fee for Sea the Stars. Over the past several years, horse-industry insiders have looked to China as the next big market to save sporting events that have been hard-hit by economic woes. Wealthy Chinese exploring new hobbies and ways to invest their money seem likely horse-buying candidates. But they may also be difficult to lure, industry insiders say. In 2008, China lifted its 60-year ban on horse racing, paving the way for Olympic events and new jockey clubs, but betting on events remains forbidden. Would-be horse-racing watchers have found little interest without gambling, causing some tracks to close down. A course built a decade ago in Nanjing has been turned into a parking lot."]]></description>

    <dc:creator>jnchapel</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["It’s got to do with being the first one to get racing going in China," said the trainer based in Beijing. But for now, despite intense interest among wealthy Chinese, the sport here is largely limited to pleasure horses and private clubs, he said, and that is not likely to change anytime soon. With revenues falling in many parts of the world, that is bad news for racegoers. "There are so many people around the world, especially in America and Australia, who are waiting for this, because the bottom is falling out of the market there,” the trainer said. “They think the Chinese will be the saving of the horse all over the world."]]></description>

    <title>Mainland racing still far from an appealing wager</title>

    <dc:creator>jnchapel</dc:creator><description><![CDATA["There are reports of racing initiatives of various sizes and ambitions under way in Wuhan, Tianjin, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Nanjing, even the racing lottery on Hainan island, and all of them being as careful as possible to get things rolling without upsetting anyone in Beijing. There are probably many others we haven't heard about, but they share one very obvious problem. Until China approves gambling on horse racing on the mainland, which is not on any radar yet, there is no commercial imperative to make these things happen the right way - and there must be doubts about the backers of some of these projects even being capable of that."]]></description>

Now, the Jockey Club's racing operations director is the logistical mastermind behind what could be the biggest challenge in more than 125 years of racing in Hong Kong - extending the Jockey Club's operations to the mainland."]]></description>
