As of June 2025, there were around 3.11 million ethnic Chinese residents in Singapore. Singapore is a multi-ethnic society, with residents categorized into four main racial groups: Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Others. Each resident is assigned a racial category that follows the paternal side. This categorization would have an impact on both official as well as private matters. Modelling a peaceful, multi-ethnic society The racial categorization used in Singapore stemmed from its colonial past and continues to shape its social policies, from public housing quotas along the ethnic composition in the country to education policies pertaining second language, or ‘mother tongue’, instruction. Despite the emphasis on ethnicity and race, Singapore has managed to maintain a peaceful co-existence among its diverse population. Most Singaporeans across ethnic levels view the level of racial and religious harmony there to be moderately high. The level of acceptance and comfort with having people of other ethnicities in their social lives was also relatively high across the different ethnic groups. Are Singaporeans ready to move away from the CMIO model of ethnic classification? In recent times, however, there has been more open discussion on racism and the relevance of the CMIO (Chinese, Malay, Indian, Others) ethnic model for Singaporean society. The global discourse on racism has brought to attention the latent discrimination felt by the minority ethnic groups in Singapore, such as in the workplace. In 2010, Singapore introduced the option of having a ‘double-barreled’ race classification, reflecting the increasingly diverse and complicated ethnic background of its population. More than a decade later, there have been calls to do away from such racial classifications altogether. However, with social identity and policy deeply entrenched along these lines, it would be a challenge to move beyond race in Singapore.

According to a survey on racial and religious harmony in Singapore, **** percent of respondents aged between 18 to 25 years old in Singapore stated that they had close friends who were also Singaporean Chinese. Singapore is a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society, with citizens categorized into four main ethnic groups, known as CMIO: Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Others. Those categorized under the "Others" include Eurasians, Caucasians, Arabs, and Filipinos, among others. Those from an ethnic Chinese background make up the majority of the population in Singapore.

Forword

Gambling is bad, m'kay.

This repository provides horse race data for the Hong Kong Jockey Club and the Singpore Turf Club. The data was obtained by scraping their respective public websites, and comes with no guarantee of correctness whatsoever.

A particularly cool thing is that we also provides historical odds for a period of time for HKJC race. Being able to predict what would be the final odds for a given horse on a given race is extremely valuable, but historical data are, as far as we know, not publicly available. We thus wrote a scraper, that ran for 2 seasons, that probed the odds at regular interval up to the race start. This allows for cool time series analysis that can't be done with historical data available on the public websites.

That dataset is provided as a set of compressed CSV files, that can easily be reloaded to a database of your choice, a pandas dataframe, or even Excel if you don't know any better. The HKJC website is just a little less crappy that the TurfClub one, in general HK data contains more information than their Singaporean counterpart.

Original Data

Dataset

horses

List of all the horses (some retired) for HKJC and SGTC that ran a race, up to 2018-07-01.

performances

Each row of this table is the result for a single horse in a single race, with their position, final odds (for first place -- more explicit dividends can be found in the all_dividends table for HK races). This is the main source of information for the statistics you want. Note that some races found in the performance table do NOT have their counterpart in the races table.

This contains historical results from 1979 up to 2018-06-27 for Hong Kong, and 2002-03-08 to 2018-04-24 for Singapore.

races

List of all the races ran between 2016-09-28 and 2018-06-27 for Hong Kong and 2016-09-25 to 2018-04-24 for Singapore. Note that some races not found in this table still have available performances in the performances table.

all_dividends

Each row of this table contains the JSON-encoded dividend results (which can be used to infer the final odds) for each race ran in Hong Kong between 2016-09-28 and 2018-06-27.

sectional_times

Each row contains the sectional times for races ran between 2008-06-05 and 2018-06-27. That's basically, for a given horse in a given race, what was their placing and time at given section of the track.

live_odds

Live odds evolution for Hong Kong race ran between 2016-09-27 and 2018-06-27. HKJC is a "pari-mutuel" system where odds for a given horse / bet evolve up to the start of the race. This dataset was collected by poking for the odds at various interval before a race (with the interval getting smaller as the race was getting closer, since that's when the odds tend to vary the most). As far as we can tell, this kind of information can not be found in historical dataset, and can only be collected in real-time.
