FOREVER YOUNG…forever immortalized as the first Grade I winner at the new Belmont Park ✨
Traveling back to the US once again, the Eclipse Award-winning Japanese superstar dominated Friday’s GI Jockey Club Gold Cup by 3 1/4 lengths in his first race back since finishing second in the G1 Dubai World Cup on March 28.
The JCGC victory marks his fifth Grade I/Group 1 victory worldwide, while improving his overall record to 12 wins, one second, and two thirds in 16 career starts. The Yoshito Yahagi trainee, owned by Susumu Fujita and ridden by Ryusei Sakai, has earned $32,313,590 in his career.
“I think I will never see a horse like this again in my life and in my career,” said Yahagi.
