The 2024 Longines World Racing Awards will be held Jan. 21 in London, England. The event, which is organized by the Swiss watch brand Longines and the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities (IFHA), will return to the famed Savoy Hotel.
The ceremony will honor the highest-rated horse in the 2024 Longines World’s Best Racehorse Rankings as well as the Longines World’s Best Horse Race. In the previous edition, Equinox was named the 2023 Longines World’s Best Racehorse with a rating of 135, while the Japan Cup in association with Longines (G1), which Equinox won in his final start, was celebrated as the 2023 Longines World’s Best Horse Race.
The Longines World’s Best Racehorse Rankings are established by international handicappers according to the performance of the horses in top races. The highest-rated race is determined by averaging the rankings of the first four placed horses. The full list and further information on the Longines World’s Best Racehorse Rankings are both available on the IFHA website http://www.ifhaonline.org.
The trophy celebrating the Longines World’s Best Racehorse is a crystal vase named Equus, whereas the Longines World’s Best Horse Race trophy represents a proud horse head. Every year, the trophies are engraved with the name of the Longines World’s Best Racehorse and Horse Race respectively, and the representatives of the winners are presented with elegant Longines timepieces.
