Hong Kong Mile

The Hong Kong Mile is a Group 1 flat horse race in Hong Kong for three-year-old and above thoroughbreds run over a distance of 1,600 metres (approximately 1 mile) at Sha Tin Racecourse in mid December.

It was first run in 1991 as the Hong Kong Bowl with a distance of 1,400 metres (7 furlongs). The race took its present name and distance in 1999. It is one of the four Hong Kong International Races, and was first run as a Group 1 in 2000.
