VOICED : Switzerland hosts horse races

The transcript describes the unique skyring event in Switzerland, likened to a Roman chariot race on snow. Held on the first three Sundays in February, it attracts thousands of spectators. The event is part of the White Turf Meeting, a prestigious equestrian event where spectators enjoy luxury while watching horses race on snow.
