A Rear View of Runners, Happy Valley Racecourse, c. 1910s
Numerous pictures show that tracks in Happy Valley were paved to be an oval shape, but this photo suggests that there was once a straight runway connected to the bend at northeast (known as Hong Kong Football Club bend today). According to records, races for 3/4 miles were started there in the 1930s.
