    Banei Tokachi Obihiro Horse Race Track image
    Drawn to this from some of the guide book reviews. We are not big horse racing fans or even regular betters but this was a brilliant event to visit. We even broke our journey Sapporo to Kushiro just to come here for a couple of hours and weren't disappointed. Make sure you check online first for the event timetable (racing is limited to weekends) and there's also a very helpful guide to ease you through the betting process - all quite straightforward. The racing itself is fascinating - my wife described it as horse drag racing in slow motion. There's quite a bit of pausing as the horses need a break between the hump sections of the track and the riders have to make sure they stay in lane. Even watching the small train system to get the sleds back to the start line was interesting. If you're passing Obihiro at the weekend I would suggest this is a must see stopover - you will never see anything quite like it anywhere else! See more..

    The Hakodate Racetrack is always crowded in the summer season. The Japanese people love tp see the beautiful horses and the wide open lush green turf racetrack. Ofcourse placing a few bets is always exciting. The horses are bred on stud farms in the Tokachi and Chitose areas in Hokkaido and horse racing is here to stay! See more..

    交通のアクセスが悪く、平日のナイター競馬。
    非常に条件が限られる中、たまたま休みが重なり友人と2人で訪れました。元々は働いていた場所ですが、働いていた時とは施設が新しくなっていて、観戦するには手頃なスペースでした。ナイター競馬でしたが、気温も高くて半袖で過ごせましたが、念のため長袖の上着は一枚持って行った方が無難な場所です。
    馬との距離が札幌競馬場よりも近く、馬好きにはたまらないスポットです。     See more..
