The Hexastalian Horse Racing Authority (Folyan: Hexsztaliai Lóverseny Hatóság, HLH) is the governing body of horse racing in Hexastalia, responsible for flat races, steeplechasing, and harness racing. Its functions include race planning, disciplinary procedures, protecting the sport’s integrity, licensing and registering race participants, setting and enforcing standards for race participants, setting and enforcing standards for racing venues, ensuring the welfare of both horses and their staff, promoting the sport, recruiting and training new staff in the sport, and grading races.

Hexastalia currently has 36 major racecourses licensed by HLH. It is responsible for the governance of 320 events per year. Flat racing is most popular, with 155 HLH administered races every year: 14 Grade 1 races, 15 Grade 2 races, 45 Grade 3 races, and 81 Listed (below G3) races. Steeplechase sees 100 events administered by HLH every year, followed by Harness Racing with 50 and Endurance Racing with 15.
 
Here's a spreadsheet for all of Hexastalia's graded races. If I added the listed races, I would have to name 81 more events and 24 more racing venues, and honestly, I think I'm good.

The Hexastalian Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing is the highest achievement in Hexastalia's horse racing scene. It consists of winning the Káprázatos Cup, Central Stakes, and Hexastalian Derby back to back to back. These races are all Grade 1 events, the highest possible ranking in Hexastalia. They are only open to Hexastalian horses that are three years of age. The last winner of the Triple Crown was Tempestuous in 2018.

The Hexastalian Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing is a series of three horse races consisting of the Káprázatos Cup, Central Stakes, and Hexastalian Derby. To achieve the crown, one must win all three races. These races are open only to Hexastalian horses of three years of age*, who have either earned a placement through participation in qualifying races or meet the standards of quality and are willing to pay the entry fees. Female horses (fillies) were barred from participation before 2013; despite their participation in the races now, they are still a rare sight. Between the Triple Crown's foundation in 1899 and its 1962 running, the Royal Cup was run as the October leg of the series. It was replaced by the Káprázatos Stakes, subsequently renamed the Káprázatos Cup, in the 1963 edition. In total, ten horses have won all three races of the Triple Crown. Their names and years of achievement are as follows:
•Nagy Császár, 1900
•Horizont, 1922
•Kerekasztal, 1934
•Feketerigó Dala, 1953
•Mogyorófa, 1957
•Rajmond Álma, 1961
•Nagy Gondviselés, 1966
•Star Dancer, 1973
•Cicero Neptunus, 1996
•Tempestuous, 2018

*In thoroughbreds, all horses are treated as if they were born on January 1st of their birth year.
