What a shame.
Eishin Flash cancelled to run in 2013 Arima Kinen (The Grand Prix) Eishin Flash (6-y-o horse, trained by Hideaki Fujiwara), cancelled to run in the 2013 Arima Kinen (The Grand Prix) (G1), scheduled for Nakayama Racecourse on December 22, 2013. Trainer Hideaki Fujiwara comment: "We were getting him ready for the Arima Kinen but this morning we noticed something irregular with his gait. As a result of a thorough examination and what appears to be a sprain in the fetlock area of in his right foreleg, (Eishin Flash) is to be pulled from the Arima Kinen and retired. Just thinking of it makes my heart heavy. He has given us his everything all along and it must have been tough on him. I have only feelings of gratitude for what he has given us. And, I would like to express my gratitude to all those who were a part of his life, the stable staff, the breeders and those involved in raising and training him, as well as his departed (former) owner Toyomitsu Hirai." |
Nice way to bow out.

Great day of racing on Saturday from morning to night and ending with the Takamatsunomiya Kinen (Chukyo Racecourse).

Barrier draw...
http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/140328.html Straight Girl is a machine at that track and distance... Hakusan Moon should be the other favorite but I think I will use Lady of Opera, Real Impact or Smart Orion in the 2nd spot instead. I keep looking at Snow Dragon and even though there are knocks against him and it makes more sense to use Red Oval, Copano Richard (his regular jock is in Japan so he has Micro up), Earth Sonic or Majin Prosper think I will include him in the 2nd and 3rd spot(s) and maybe toss in good old San Carlo underneath (both should be at a price). Good luck if you're playing. Oh and golfer? My favorite horse in the race is Silk Fortune who I am not using. Just sayin! Sunday Star are you playing this? Ed? Cardus? Dagolfer? Anyone? |
Happy I put Snow Dragon in the 2nd spot BUT had it backwards. :wf Had a teensy place bet but that is all I had...

I guess Hart Star will be the favorite...
Looking at Marble Cathedral and Nuovo Record but not sure... might sit it out. Good luck if you're playing. |
looks like Deep Impact has a new star...Harp Star. wow, what a closing kick.
|
nice win for Isla Bonita. he's a good looking horse!
|
PPs, Tenno Sho.
Thougths, Sunday Star? Anyone? I have not looked yet... too many other races but will get to it tomorrow. http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140423.pdf |
my first thought is Kizuna will take it....but i have a hunch Gold Ship will fire a big one.
|
I'm sitting it out... have had enough for one day but best of luck SS!

Looking at the NHK Mile Cup and I'm thinking I'll go with Shonan Wadachi who should be at very good odds.
Interesting race and lots of ways to go. Started looking at pps with a completely different mindset but yeah... I think that's my boy. Thinking about using Kings of the Sun (so pretty :D), Atom, Belle Lumiere, Peak Tram and Rosa Gigantea underneath. Good luck if you're playing. edit - Used Kings of the Sun on top in one... Quote:

the Victoria Mile (brought to you by Deep Impact) running this weekend
i like Smart Layer, Denim and Ruby, and Meisho Mambo |

Have not yet looked at PPs but excited to see Whale Capture and Denim and Ruby! http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140508.pdf |
Man this is overwhelming... such a good field. 5 G1 winners.
My vision is getting blurry from looking.. I think I might just make a big mistake here, go the sentimental route and play Whale Capture to win it (again). Morning line... http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140517.pdf |
barrier draw
http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/140523.html Harp Star going for the 2nd jewel of the fillies triple crown. she will have to beat 17 others to get there. i'm pulling for her...she has the making of another great Japanese filly. |
PPs, Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby)...
http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140521.pdf SS... will Isla Bonita be the favorite? At this early stage am interested in One and Only, Win Full Bloom and World Imnpact (...and possibly the filly, Red Reveur). Need to play this one so will look more later. Let me know who you like! Poor Glorious Days - sent all alone for the Ysauda Kinen (his 3rd try). Oh for the days when a few of the raiders would go over together! Hope he wins but who knows with Just a Way and Mikki both pointed. Joao Moreira has the mount. :) |
Barrier draw...
http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/140530.html * * * May 30, 2014 Win Full Bloom scratched from Tokyo Yushun Win Full Bloom (horse number 7) has been scratched from the Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) (G1, Race 10) on Sunday, June 1, at Tokyo Racecourse due to lameness in his left shoulder |

Hope you did well, Sunday Star.
Only had a win bet... played a tri and a super but didn't use Meiner Frost or Tagano Grandpa anywhere. It's all good (... and have read that Ekimae is alright).

Have you seen the pp's for the Yasuda Kinen? Man I did not realize Whale Capture was pointed! Very exciting race. :) http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140528-03.pdf |
Hey Sunday Star it is exhausting work losing all kinds of bets! :D
So today whatever I handicapped I sucked at but the few things that were okay were cause of horses I just like SO I will forgo reason here and do a simple win bet on my HK raider, Glorious Days, a show bet - which I rarely do - using Whale Capture, put something together with Just a Way, Mikki and the other favorite (I just blanked out.Duh!) and call it a day. Good luck if you're playing! Odds... http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140607.pdf edit: Okay $20. to win on Glorious Days $10. show, Whale Capture tri... 6/7,8,10/1,3,7,8,10,11,13,16,17 exacta... 6,7/6,7,8,10 |
Just a Way wow, looked dead in the water but class came through over the crazy longshot

Gold Ship, Win Variation, Gentildonna, Denim and Ruby, Verxina, Hit he Target, Hokko Brave...
I'd say the Takarazuka Kinen looks like it'll be a good one (!). http://japanracing.jp/_news2014/pdf/140618.pdf |
definitely - looks like a great race. hopefully Denim and Ruby will get back on track. i think soft ground will favor Gold Ship and firm ground will favor Gentildonna. but Win Variation and Hokku Brave should not be overlooked.

Okay I am rooting for Gold Ship, Gentildonna, Denim and Ruby and Verxina (yes I know that is ridiculous. I am about two seconds away from deciding on passing completely but am not sure if that's the smart thing to do)...
Had to get that off my chest first. :D Was going to use Win Variation and Hokko Brave on top but it is just not cost effective so even though I fear Hokko Brave. Win Variation / Hokko Brave, Verxina, Hi the Target and will throw Denim and Ruby, Tosen Jordan, Gentildonna and Meisho Mambo in underneath. (To hell with it I just added in Gold Ship and Fame Game... $1. tri for $24. and a little $10. win on Verxina). Good luck if you're playing. edit - Did a wps on Verxina instead (she's at 38/1 with 7 mtp) and then an exacta with her and WV on top. Leaving it at that. edit - Gold Ship wins.. Verxina 3rd. |
nice run by Gold Ship. i guess he likes that track and distance :rolleyes:
apparently Gentildonna needs a race after the Dubai trip. she didn't have it. not sure what happened with Win Variation....expected a better run from him. and Verxina made a nice run to hold on for 3rd. i wish they would send one or two of their good ones to the Breeders Cup. i suppose the timing isn't right though...and their purses are so rich at home. |
Wish they would too, SS.
Hey did you hear about this? I think it's ridiculous. https://www.thoroughbredracing.com/a...ese-racetracks |
