  • THE 36TH FEBRUARY STAKES (G1) Japanese Horse Racing, Which Is Influenced by British Racing, Is Held Mainly on Turf
    FROM: Masahiro Usuda General Manager, Media & Publicity Department, THE JAPAN RACING ASSOCIATION (JRA) DATE: February 17, 2019 SUBJECT: RESULT OF THE 36TH FEBRUARY STAKES (G1) Japanese horse racing, which is influenced by British racing, is held mainly on turf. However, dirt tracks that were popular in the U.S., quickly became widely used around the country since the Tokyo Racecourse implemented a new dirt track in 1960. While the mainstream of major JRA races remained over turf, the February Stakes (then called February Handicap), which was established in 1984 in conjunction with the new grading system, was one of just three graded dirt races at the time—the current number of graded dirt events is 15. The race was upgraded to G2 in 1994 and then to G1 in 1997, and stood as the highest-prized event until the Japan Cup Dirt (called the Champions Cup from 2014) took over in 2000. Past winners include Wing Arrow (JPN, by Assatis; ’00), Agnes Digital (USA, by Crafty Prospector; ’02), Gold Allure (JPN, by Sunday Silence; ’03), Admire Don (JPN, by Timber Country; ’04), Kane Hekili (JPN, by Fuji Kiseki; ’06), Vermilion (JPN, by El Condor Pasa; ’08), Espoir City (JPN, by Gold Allure; ’10), Transcend (JPN, by Wild Rush; ’11), Copano Rickey (JPN, by Gold Allure; ’14&’15) and Gold Dream (’17)—all ten are winners of multiple-G1 races as well as JRA Award winners. This year’s line-up featured 2018 Champions Cup (G1, dirt, 1,800m; Dec.2) contenders Sunrise Soar and last year’s February Stakes champion Nonkono Yume, who finished third and seventh, respectively, while runner-up Omega Perfume went on to claim his first G1 title in the Tokyo Daishoten (G1, dirt, 2,000m) three weeks later with 2017 Best Dirt Horse Gold Dream in second.

PILES ON THE PRESSURE He’s got everything you’d want in a racehorse. Cue Card could have cried enough at the last, but he stuck his head out and finished Thistlecrack put his more experienced rivals to the sword in the second, so it’s brilliant.” Gr.1 King George VI Chase, the feature race on Boxing Day at Thistlecrack, who won the Gr.1 Long Walk, Gr.1 World and Gr.1 Kempton Park. The eight-year-old son of Kayf Tara, who was Liverpool Stayers’ Hurdles last season, is likely to cement his Gr.1 having only his fourth start over fences, treated the former Cheltenham Gold Cup claims in the Gr.2 Cotswold Chase at winners Silviniaco Conti (Dom Alco) and Cue Card (King’s Prestbury Park at the end of January, but Cue Card could head Theatre) to some daring fencing as he tracked the former before straight for the blue riband.
