Maybe you have some interest in horse racing, but you have never experienced it.
If that sounds like you, I can introduce a model course to have fun at TCK.
This edition will introduce a ladies' night out at the races for first-timers!

Take the Tokyo Monorail to Oikeibajo-Mae, get off at the station, and the horse racetrack (Keibajo in Japanese) will be right in front of you!
As you approach the racetrack for the first time, your heart will pound with excitement!

Once you've settled on your favorite horse, fill out the betting card and buy a wager ticket.
Until you get used to it, I recommend choosing either Tankatsu, meaning betting on the first horse to arrive at the finish line, or betting on one of the top 3 horses, called Fukusho.
You can buy wager tickets from just ¥100, making it easy to enjoy betting on the races!
