Horse Stewards

In Hong Kong, there is a horse race in autumn that has been a tradition since the English colony. This is a type of gamble, and a huge commission is taken by the government and race organization from each participant. However, you are definitely a loser in this gamble. You lost ten thousand dollars but won seven thousand dollars, and three thousand went to the government and race organization.
Despite this, Hong Kong people are crazy about horse racing, which shows that gambling is a part of human nature. In Hong Kong, many horse owners have high social status because it is not easy to become a horse owner.
In Australia, the horse industry is a significant enterprise. Every horse has a family record, and if its ancestors won many races, it adds to its value. Additionally, there are many horse stewards in Australia whose duty is to safely escort horses to any destination.
