The Penang Turf Club, established in 1864, was British Malaya's second after the Singapore Sporting Club. It began on Macalister Road with a land grant of seven furlongs and 81 3/4 yards, with wood and attap buildings and stands. A popular social venue, by 1898 it was holding Spring and Autumn Meetings on Wednesdays and Saturdays, which were declared public holidays with the funicular railway running late services especially. It moved to Batu Gantong in 1939. Its President, Chancery lawyer Ong Huck Lim, kept the Club running under Japanese occupation, and saw to its rehabilitation post-war and during the Malayan Emergency. Its patrons were the Commissioner General of South East Asia Malcolm Macdonald, High Commissioner for the Federation Henry Gurney, succeeded by General Henry Templer after his assassination in October 1951, Sultan Yussuf Izzuddin Shah of Perak, Sultan Sir Badlishah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Abdul Hamid Halim Shah of Kedah, and Resident Commissioner for Penang and Province Wellesley Robert Porter Bingham. The Perak Turf Club, formed in 1886, held ordinary races for the Federated Malay States with major tournaments held at Penang, Selangor and Singapore. In 1934 it moved from Taiping to Ipoh. It continued to operate during the Japanese occupation, and was restored post-WW2, chaired by Captain OHM Sturges, ahead of a boom in the 1950s.
