Consecutive G1 Champion Equinox presented "himself" as "JRA Horse of the Year".
On December 11, last year, Masashi Yonemoto (47), who was introduced in the morning edition of this paper, "Silk Racing", whose horse Equinox (Kimura Tetsuya stable = Kyusha), is the "2022 JRA (Japan Japan Horse Racing Association) Award for Horse of the Year. JRA announced on the 10th.
On the same day, Mr. Yonemoto went to Northern Farm Tenei in Tenei Village, Fukushima Prefecture, and met again with Equinox, who won consecutive G1 titles last year at the Emperor's Award Autumn (October) and Arima Kinen (December). "I was able to report the award to Equinox himself," he said with joy.
Representative Yonemoto's comments are as follows.
“Thank you very much for being selected for this prestigious award. The Equinox has made me feel that it has grown in every race last year, and I think it has demonstrated a great performance. It was Arima Kinen who got out of the 4th corner of the Emperor's Award, which stretched sharply and sharply, with outstanding response.I think that he is still in the process of growing, so I am looking forward to his success this year.Thank you for your support so far. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in the ranch and all the fans who have always supported us.”
“Genius” Equinox wins Arima Memorial with the smallest 6th race “easy win” in history
Chuo Horse Racing's 67th Arima Kinen (GI) was held on the 25th on the 2,500-meter turf at Nakayama Racecourse with 16 horses running, and Equinox (rided by Christophe Lemaire), who was the favorite to win the race, won the championship.
Equinox won the Arima Kinen, which was held for the first time in six years on Christmas, in the sixth race, the smallest career in history.
“If it happens twice, it happens three times,” laughed Lemaire jockey from France, who took the reins. Following Heart's Cry in 2005 and Satono Diamond in 2016, Christmas won the year-end Grand Prix race.
Although I got caught on the road, I persevered outside the middle group and proceeded with the race. He accelerated out of the final corner and left behind. Following the Emperor's Award, Aki, who caught a runaway horse in a straight line, he once again demonstrates a strong trailing leg. Lemaire said, "He stretched out again in a straight line and used his great legs. It was an easy victory for him."
Trainer Tetsuya Kimura also praised his "genius", saying, "From the moment he first came to the stables, his footwork was excellent. He's always running, so there's no need for him to grow."
When asked about his plans for next year, trainer Kimura said, "Personally, I think this is a horse worth going overseas and showing to horsemen around the world." Kitasan Black, the father of 7 G1 wins, mass-produced victories on medium- and long-distance routes at the age of 4 and 5, including the 2017 Arima Kinen race, which was his retirement race. The size of the child's growth is also immeasurable.
Yuichi Fukunaga of the last Arima, "It was the best"
The 67th Arima Memorial of Central Horse Racing was held on the 25th at the 2,500-meter turf at Nakayama Racecourse.
Jockey Yuichi Fukunaga (46), who will retire in February next year and become a trainer, rides No. 6 popular Bordoghuche and finishes second. His first victory did not come in his 14th and final Arima Kinen.
It was a development that went behind and went around the outside, and caught up fiercely from the 3rd corner. He was two and a half lengths behind the favorite, Equinox, but finished second with the fastest last leg of the members. ``It was a great performance. He used his long, good legs.
A master who has won three Japanese derbies in Contrail and other competitions said, "There were a lot of spectators, and I realized the goodness of horse racing. I thought horse racing must be like this. I received the best riding request." drifted.
(11) Arima Memorial & Hopeful S Geraldina & Hearts Concerto
Maki Nakajima, also known as "Maki Bao" of the Digital News Center, predicts a total of 12 races in the second half of the GI series. The final race will be the year-end Grand Prix race, Arima Kinen (Nakayama 2500m, starting at 3:25 pm on the 25th), and the 2-year-old champion deciding match, Hopeful Stakes (S) = Nakayama 2000m, at 3:25 pm on the 28th. Start. Arima Kinen is a gathering of gorgeous members such as the title holder who won 2 G1 this spring, last year's champion Efforia, and the 3-year-old Equinox who won the Emperor's Award Autumn. The Hopeful Stakes also gathered strong horses aiming for the leading role in next year's Classic. Mr. Kazunori Matsuzawa, a 30-year teacher in charge of horse racing, is also enthusiastic. Let's guess the big deal at the end of the day and say "Bravo if it ends well".
What about signature betting tickets?
"Argentina wins the World Cup Qatar soccer tournament. Messi's jersey number is 10, and his birthday is June 24... Or is it the blue frame of Samurai Blue, who beat the powerhouses Germany and Spain? No, long. Yuuto's hair is red, isn't it? When Maki Bao was mumbling, his teacher came and said, "Hey, what's wrong?"
Arima Kinen is a signature betting ticket that reflects the social situation. There is also a way to say that," said the master. The theory of success is a method of riding on numbers that often appear, and conversely, attacking numbers that do not appear. “Arima Kinen is said to have an advantage in the inner slots, but over the past 10 years, slots 1-4 have had 6 wins, 2nd place 6 times, and 3rd place 3 times, while slots 5-8 have 4 wins, 2nd place 4 times, 3rd place 7 times. It's a "demonic gate" with not a single runner in the Top 2 except for the 8th time slot.However, it's also horse racing that rewrites the data. It's interesting to buy 8 slots." It's a way of playing that can only be done by a data-loving master.
Regarding trends at the Arima Kinen, "The 1st favorite is responding to popularity with 6 wins and 2nd place once, but the 2nd and 3rd favorites are sluggish with 2 consecutive matches, and instead, 5 runners from the 8th to 11th favorites are in the top 1. I do," said the master. "In the past 10 years, there have been 3 solid 3-digit dividends, but the 9th and 11th favorite ambush (To the World, Sarakia) did well in 2014, 12,350 yen in 2020, 1 A high dividend of 330 yen is popping out.
After the Arima Kinen is over, there will also be the Hopeful Stakes on the 28th.
"Don't run the 1st and 3rd runners in the Tospo Hai 2-year-old Stakes (Tokyo 1800m), a career race. In the past eight years, all the winners of this race have been in the top 3 favorites. The past 5 that have been promoted to G1. 2019 is going to be a particularly tight settlement. It seems that the less popular horses won't have a turn."
"The Equinox finished 2nd in the Satsuki Sho (Nakayama 2000m) in addition to the large outer frame, but also faced a severe mark. Even in the Derby (Tokyo 2400m), which I chased at the fastest going up, I cried to 2nd place by the neck. Emperor Zenso. Award-Autumn (Tokyo 2000m), from 2nd in a special development where one horse ran away, he captured it with an amazing straight 32.7 seconds and won the G1 for the first time.The 3-year-old ace wins the G1 in a row. "
<Hopeful S> (This is the mark before the frame order is decided. The final decision is on the Mainichi Shimbun horse racing page)
“Hearts Concerto was the 3rd runner-up in the East Sports Cup 2-year-old in his previous race. Although he got off to a late start, he was within three-fourths of the length behind the winning horse with the fastest 33.8 seconds of the members. However, it was a masterpiece to win the second place by eight lengths.With his high ability, he will shine as the two-year-old champion.”

I remember the Arima Memorial in 2014 vividly. Having just become his apprentice, this is the first time for him to watch the Arima race. Even though he was told by veteran horse racing fans who watched the race together that "Deep Impact's offspring can't beat Arima," he believed in his favorite, Gentildonna. As a result, I got a win and a frame series. He saw the Queen's last run.
It's been 8 years since then. The Queen's daughter, Geraldina, takes to the stage where her mother graced her finale.
Her mother Gentildonna, her mother's father Deep Impact, and her father Maurice's grandfather Glass Wonder are the descendants of three winners of the Arima Kinen. It's like a pedigree born to win the Arima Kinen. Although the distance is 300 meters longer than the previous run, he jumped into the finish plate with the momentum that the previous run was still likely to grow. Nakayama's aptitude has been proven because he beat the all-comer (Nakayama 2200m) two races ago. I want to entrust this horse with my biggest dream at the end of the year.

Gastric ▽ Grüne Green ▽ Top Knife ▽ Hearts Concerto ▽ Mickey Cappuccino
Like her master, Maki Bao has high hopes for the Hearts Concerto. The 2-year-old S of the previous race, the East Sports Cup, finished 3rd after a slow start. In addition, jockey Kohei Matsuyama commented that he was busy shortening the distance from the new horse match. By extending the distance, you should be able to demonstrate your true power. I want you to win the last G1 of the year and give momentum to next year's classic.
