    The racing horses are pack horses (horses used to transport agricultural products - PV). The riders are farmers with "muddy hands and feet". Thanks to these "unique" details, the Horse Racing Festival in Go Thi Thung has become more attractive, bringing laughter to the audience in the spring. Photo: Hoai Luan

Dung truoc dam dong, ngua de bi hoang chay loan xa. Toi phai dung roi thuc manh no moi chiu dua, hon nua phai tap trung cao do, neu khong se bi no hat rot la bi loai ngay“, ong Son noi.
    Mr. Nguyen Huu Son - the rider of horse racing number 23 shared: "This race depends a lot on the horse, because it is a pack horse, it is very arbitrary. Standing in front of a crowd, the horse can easily panic and run wildly. I have to use a whip to urge it to run, and I have to concentrate highly, otherwise it will be thrown and disqualified immediately". Photo: Hoai Luan

    Unaccustomed to the cheers and encouragement of the crowd, many horses panicked and ran away from the track. Photo: Hoai Luan
