Sha Tin Racecourse was filled with music, acrobatic displays and cheering on Thursday as some 10,000 tourists and local residents gathered to celebrate National Day. Despite Hong Kong sweltering in 33-degree Celsius (91.4 Fahrenheit) heat on October 1, spectators fanned themselves under clear morning skies, eagerly awaiting special performances for the 77th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China and the marquee Group 3 National Day Cup. Jockey Club boss Winfried...

Hong Kong’s athletes edged the city ever closer to another historic medal haul at the Asian Games on Thursday, with the cyclists, sailors and men’s squash team all adding to the tally. The women’s squash team have guaranteed themselves at least a silver on Friday, while tennis star Coleman Wong Chak-lam eased into the semi-finals of the men’s singles, and in rugby sevens, the men began the defence of their title with two dominant performances in Nagoya. Ever since the schedule came out, there...

Alexandra Eala faces her toughest test of the Asian Games so far on Thursday when she takes on China’s Wang Xinyu in the semi-finals of the women’s singles. Victory will take the 21-year-old a step closer to gold, but after battling past Chinese Taipei’s Joanna Garland in the last eight, she said it had not been an easy decision to come to Japan in the first place. While Eala and the rest are in Nagoya, the China Open is taking place in Beijing, and as a WTA 1000 event, it is mandatory for tour...

It was nearly two years coming but when the Premier League’s verdict arrived this week it buried Manchester City. Quite how far beneath their current exalted status will become clearer in the fullness of time, although the 21 months needed to reach a conclusion over the 100-plus charges levied against them would suggest it will be a while before the club discovers if it will be fined, stripped of titles, docked points, relegated, or all of the above. “I’d put them in the lowest league they can...

Hong Kong will collect at least two more bronze medals in squash on Thursday, although the men’s and women’s teams have loftier goals in mind at the Asian Games. Semi-finals against Pakistan and India at the Nagoya Kinjo Futo Arena stand between the Hong Kong players and a shot at gold. With cyclist Ceci Lee Sze-wing in action in the women’s Madison, Coleman Wong Chak-lam into the quarter-finals of the men’s singles, and the start of the rugby sevens, the city’s athletes will have designs on...

Zheng Qinwen begins her China Open campaign on Friday confident she can recapture the form that made her among the best women’s players in the world, despite the pressures that come from trying to win at home. The former world No 4 and Olympic gold medallist said she was fully prepared for what lay ahead, even though she dropped outside the top 100 at one stage this season. But an impressive run to the quarter-finals of the US Open has helped her bounce back to near the top 50, and good...

Zac Purton is hoping the best version of Colourful King shows up when he goes for a fifth 1,000m win in Thursday’s Group Three National Day Cup at Sha Tin. The David Eustace-trained galloper has won a pair of minimum-trip races at both Happy Valley and Sha Tin, with his two wins last season coming at the latter venue. Ending last season by winning the Class One Pearce Memorial Challenge Cup (1,000m), he also posted a huge effort to finish second in the Group Three Bauhinia Sprint Trophy, where...

Under 1,000 spectators watched Asian Games hosts Japan beat South Korea in the semi-finals of the women’s football at a 50,000-capacity stadium, with a top official admitting Wednesday that attendances at some events were “disappointing”. Japanese organisers have been on the defensive over ticket sales since the opening ceremony on September 19 took place in front of thousands of empty seats in Nagoya. Officials said on that occasion that the threat of a typhoon put people off, and heavy rain...

China’s 21-year-old Chen Yuxi became the oldest gold medal winner in women’s 10m platform diving at the Asian Games for 52 years on Tuesday. The victory marked Chen’s first individual Asian Games gold medal, finishing ahead of teammate Lu Wei, 20, who claimed silver. The pair had previously topped the podium together in the synchronised event. Chen’s win also rekindled interest in her compatriot Quan Hongchan, who is two years younger and missed the Asian Games through injury. China have claimed...

Francis Lui Kin-wai is eager to see Hot Delight prove himself at 1,400m when one of the city’s most electrifying four-year-olds faces his first test at the trip at Sha Tin on Thursday. An outstanding winner of four of five starts in his debut campaign last season, Hot Delight will return in the highlight of the National Day undercard, the Class Two Beijing Handicap, but Lui is guarded about his claims. The son of Too Darn Hot proved he would be a serious Classic Series contender and was compared...

Manchester City used “sham” commercial contracts as part of schemes ⁠to inflate revenue and understate costs by more than £900 million over nearly a decade, ⁠the Premier League said on Tuesday after an independent commission ruled the club guilty of serious breaches of financial rules. The commission found City guilty of all charges relating to breaches of the league’s financial rules over nine seasons, between the 2009-10 and 2017-18 campaigns, as well as three of four charges concerning their...
