In another video circulated online, the horse was later seen being safely escorted off the road near an exit towards Turf Club Ave by a Land Transport Authority official.
There have been multiple incidents of horses wandering onto roads in Singapore. In August 2021, a horse stopped traffic on Vanda Link by trotting at a leisurely pace in front of multiple vehicles.
In April 2020, a white mare named Cocorita made its way onto Eng Neo Ave for around 20 minutes. The mare was trying to find her way back to her stable at Paisano Polo Academy at Turf Club Road, her owner Ronnie Lim explained then.
The latest runaway horse from the storied Bukit Timah Saddle Club drew some tongue-in-cheek comments questioning its right to use the highway for its frolicking.
One Facebook user Khalid Hilmi asked whether it would be liable to pay Electronic Road Pricing charges, while others noted the horse may be heading for “interviews” to find its next job after being “retrenched”.
Singapore’s Ministry of Finance said in June that the Singapore Turf Club will close its facility by March 2027, with the last race scheduled to take place in October 2024.
