Cinderella's Horse Carriage found!!!

Does this look like a Cinderella's Horse Carriage to you?
It's look so fairytale to me... Then where is Cinderella?



Just joking, there is no Cinderella. This Horse Carriage is just for display for people to take photo at the Singapore Turf Club. Yesterday (17 Jul 2011), I was invited to the Singapore Turf Club to witness the Emirates Singapore Derby- one of the top horse races that is held annually at the Kranji Racecourse in Singapore every mid-July.

This race was staged left-handed on turf and is contested over 2400 metres of 1.24 miles or 10 furlongs. The race was open to four-year-old race hoses only.

Fund-raising remains an important element of the Emirates Singapore Derby. This year, Emirates hopes to raise at least $100,000 to benefit five voluntary welfare organisations under the umbrella of the Community Chest of Singapore. Fundraising activities include the pre-sale of donation tables and outright donations.

It was pretty an eye opening and interesting experience for me for the 2nd time entering into the Singapore Turf Club to watch the the 16th Emirates Singapore Derby!


I was invited with the Emirate Singapore Derby Package. It was sold at $65 per pax or $120 per pair.

Clint (John Powell) won this year's Emirates Singapore Derby!!!
Congrats!!! =)


Interviewing the winner, Powell. It was a second Derby win for Powell who took the race in 2005 aboard Hello And Goodbye.

He paid tribute to Clint when he said after the race: "I was always a bit worried about catching Better Than Ever in the straight when I got out but to Clint's credit he fought hard and continued to cover the line all the way to the winning post."



See what we got?

Ya it was a nicely printed photo for us to bring home...
