Last 10 years,Cherry Blossom AwardThen, the previous run / Tulip Sho group won the most 5 wins at[5-7-6-29]. However, Buena Vista in 2009 was the last horse to win the Oka Sho in the Tulip Sho, and it is rather conspicuous that horses in the second or less in the Tulip Sho will rewind in production.
In addition, following 2018 when he was promoted to GII, he finished 2nd with[0-3-2-12]. In recent years, the activity of “Direct Rote” has been remarkable, and last year, Sodashi and Satono Reinas, who went straight from Hanshin Juvenile F, made a one-two.
However, when the horses that left the results in this direct Rote are lined up, Sodashi, Satono Reinas, Gran Alegria, Almond Eye, Red Reveur, and the horses within the second most popular are lined up. This year, I mightn’t find any horses that were expected to be the most popular in the direct Rote group, but rather I saw that there was a “blind spot” in the previous run / trial group.
■ Sublime Anthem
The winning clock of Fillies’ Revue, Hanshin Shiba 1400m 1 minute 19 seconds 9 is a race record that breaks the conventional record by 0 seconds 8. It was a high-level match, 0 seconds and 5 seconds faster than last week’s Kouma 3-win class. At the start, the horse raced from behind with a slight lack of legs, but he successfully accumulated his legs and put up with the expulsion until the course opened in a straight line. At the end, he won the battle with Namura Clair and won the first victory in the group race with consecutive wins from the unwinning match.
At the beginning of his debut, he was still growing as it took six races to win his first victory, and he had a difficult side in the race and was self-defeating, but recently he has learned horse racing and has become able to ride the flow well. The strong point of this horse is the strength of the defeat, and although there is a disadvantage in front of the goal before the second run, it revives from there, and the previous run is a straight steep slope and it grows further. Although the opponent is strengthened at once, one of the best competitiveness of the generation cannot be underestimated.
Since there are some difficult points, it is a plus that the reins return to Mirai Iwata, who rode three races in a row until the last run. Furthermore, before the second run, which was counterclockwise, there was a scene that swelled out at the corner, so it is also good to continue to rotate clockwise. I saw that the qualification of the hole was sufficient.
