The annual JRA Awards, which will be handed out in a ceremony at Tokyo on Monday, January 26, recognize horses, trainers, jockeys, other individuals and organizations for accomplished performances or achievements in the Gentildonna at 2014 Dubai Sheema Classic thoroughbred racing season. Gentildonna, previously Horse of the Year in 2012, is the eighth horse in JRA history to claim this highest honor twice and is only the second mare following Vodka, who won in 2008 and 2009. Gentildonna was also a unanimous selection for 2014 Best Older Filly or Mare. The Best Two-Year-Old selections for colts and fillies were also unanimous. Just a Way, who earned international recognition by reaching the top of the World’s Best Racehorse Rankings, was chosen Best Older Colt or Horse with 242 votes (85%), while Hokko Tarumae amassed 276 votes (97%) as Best Dirt Horse.

  • Exclusive Topics for Horse Racing in Japan - Spring Edition
    Exclusive Topics for Horse Racing in Japan - Spring Edition - March 2015 The Japan Racing Association The JRA horse racing season starts in earnest with the three-year-old classic trials in March, while established horses begin to prepare towards the spring 2015 G1 events. We take this opportunity to bring you up to date on the progress of last year’s stars and this season’s key runners, hoping that this special spring edition of the seasonal Japan Cup Newsletter will assist you in reporting on upcoming events. Japanese Delegates off to Dubai and Australia The biggest international horse racing event in Dubai takes place in March. Japan has high hopes for the world’s richest racing carnival, where it will place seven starters. The hope is that one of these entries will follow Gentildonna (JPN, by Deep Impact), winner of the 2014 edition of the Dubai Sheema Classic (G1, 2,410m), and Just a Way (JPN, by Heart’s Cry), who received high acclaim as the highest rated thoroughbred with 130lb in the 2014 World’s Best Racehorse Rankings following his dominating 6-1/4-length victory in the Dubai Duty Free (G1, 1,800m)—now renamed Dubai Turf beginning this year. The Dubai World Cup (G1, dirt, 2,000m) is back on dirt after five years since Dubai’s Meydan Racecourse installed a Tapeta all-weather track in 2010. The reinstalled dirt surface has attracted one of our top turf horses, Epiphaneia, as well as dirt specialists. Epiphaneia (JPN, H5, by Symboli Kris S) will face some of the world’s top caliber in his first challenge on dirt.
