“This year's prize money is 20 million RMB/$2.7 million and next year's is 30 million RMB/$4.1 million,” Yueshang said. “That means we will have completed the three-year plan for the Chinese-bred Thoroughbred series regular races. However, we will strive towards a prize money of 40 million RMB/$5.5 million next year and plan to introduce graded races. This is also the reason why CHOA has launched the 'Three-Year Chinese-bred Thoroughbred Series Regular Races', step by step promoting the growth in the number of domestic horses.”

Via a pre-recorded video, Tom Reilly, CEO of Thoroughbred Breeders Australia, announced the TBA's online horse course targeting Chinese horse lovers. The course is free and in Chinese.

Irish-bred runners claimed two out of seven races on Chinese mainland's richest raceday, Saturday Sept. 1. Yin Ling Shi Shang (Ire) (Inns of Court {Ire}) won his debut in the Coolmore Cup S. and Baton Rouge (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) earned his fourth win from five starts in the Tattersalls Cup S. He is a full brother to European highweight and dual Group 1 winner Magician (Ire), who was recently purchased by Chinese interests and will continue his stallion career in China next year.
