History

The club began as the Macau Trotting Club in 1980 in an attempt to introduce harness racing in Asia, but it was not a popular sporting event and gave way to the formation of the current thoroughbred racing club in 1989.

Facilities

The MJC has one track on Taipa converted from the old trotting track. The old track is now the inner sand track and the newer outer track is turf. The stables at the MJC are home to about 1,000 horses.
