"Xihu Street will continue to rely on the Horse Culture Industrial Park to drive the employment and entrepreneurship of farmers and herdsmen, and use the 'horse' culture to continue to drive rural revitalization." Chao Zhaomin, member of the Party Working Committee and deputy director of Xihu Street, Economic Development Zone (Tou District), said.

The Speed Horse Racing Classic is not only a sports event, but also an important measure to promote rural revitalization and increase the income of farmers and herdsmen. Yin Li, deputy secretary of the party group and director of the Agriculture and Rural Affairs Bureau of the Economic Development Zone (Tou District), said: "In the process of preparing and holding horse racing activities, we have provided a large number of temporary and long-term employment opportunities for local farmers and herdsmen, effectively increasing their income. In addition, with the development of the horse racing industry, we also encourage and support farmers and herdsmen to participate in the industrial chain of horse breeding and equestrian training to achieve industrial income. Horse racing activities have also led to the development and sale of related agricultural and animal husbandry products, such as mare's milk and horse meat, opening up new channels for farmers and herdsmen to increase their income. We hope to deeply integrate the traditional horse racing culture with modern tourism, agriculture and animal husbandry, and open up a new path of economic development with local characteristics. ”
