Away from post nine under Ikezoe, the chestnut relaxed under cover toward the back of pack, some 10 lengths off Earnestly (Jpn) (Grass Wonder)=s early pace. They continued through an easy gallop as Victoire Pisa and Buena Vista tracked in second and third, respectively, before the pace quickened on the final turn. Orfevre, produced on the outside in upper stretch, still had five lengths to make up, but lowered his head determinedly and ate up ground with each stride. He finally hit the front in the final 200 meters and outfought a dead-game Eishin Flash (Jpn) (King=s Best) and the running-on To The Glory (Jpn) (King Kamehameha {Jpn}) to the wire. The win margin was 3/4 lengths, with another neck back to third. Earnestly, in the mix until mid-stretch, faltered to be 10th, while Buena Vista came home a one-paced seventh, one spot ahead of Victoire Pisa.

  • Race Distance
    odern horse racing in Japan had its beginnings in racing events that were organized by foreign residents of Yokohama in 1862. In 1861, when Japan was about to move from the feudal system into the Meiji Restoration, foreign residents living in Yokohama, predominantly British, introduced the first Western-style horse racing by establishing the Yokohama Race Club to Japan. Western style horse racing was held in foreign enclaves, and hence, unfortunately, very little is known or recorded about initial era in Japan’s modern horse racing history. At about the same time that the name of the Japanese central city was changed from Edo to Tokyo, Western-style horse racing began to be found in the major metropolitan cities across the country. In 1906, the government embarked on a policy which tacitly allowed to bet. This led to the introduction of modern horse racing featuring sales of betting tickets in Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and other metropolitan cities, from which most racing operations benefited. However, this profitable system was short lived; two years later, the government prohibited betting and instituted a system of paying direct subsidies for prize money and other horse racing expenses. During this subsequent period of government-subsidized horse racing, prominent legislators, businessmen, as well as breeders, began active efforts to introduce a horse racing law. Eventually the government began to take proactive position to promote horse racing in order to expand breeding in Japan and to improve quality of the Japanese horses. In 1923, horse racing legislation, so greatly desired by the horse racing industry, was enacted and led to the formation of 11 racing clubs.
