Off-Course Betting Branches to resume Mark Six betting service

 

The Hong Kong Jockey Club (the Club) has been closely monitoring the latest COVID-19 developments. As the pandemic stabilises, and after carefully considering various factors including the operation of Off-Course Betting Branches (OCBBs) and the demand of customers, the Club has decided to resume Mark Six betting services at the OCBBs from 15 May (Saturday).

 

To minimise the potential public health risk at the OCBBs due to over-crowding, the OCBBs will open until 9:15pm on Mark Six draw days and live broadcast of Mark Six draws will not be available. Any OCBB located in any ¡§specified area¡¨ delineated by the HKSAR Government or in the vicinity of confirmed cases will not open. Customers may visit the Club¡¦s website at https://is.hkjc.com/ocb/ocbbizhour_en.pdf for the latest information. Customers may also purchase Mark Six lottery tickets online or via Telebet betting services.

 

Public health measures including body temperature scanning, mask-wearing, social distancing and cleaning and disinfecting will continue to be implemented in the OCBBs.

 

 

*Entrants to OCBBs must be aged 18 or above
