- She was born in the U.S. and was in the category of a “外国産馬 (foreign-bred horse)”.
In Japanese horse racing, there were many wonderful foreign-bred horses such as Hishi Amazon and El Condor Pasa, but they could not run in the Classic races or the Tenno Sho because of restrictions on the races they could run in.

- She lost to Vodka in the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies.
She lost to Daiwa Scarlet in the Oka Sho. - In the Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks), she was the 5th favorite.
Vodka did not run in this race because she was scheduled to run in the Derby the following week, and Daiwa Scarlet did not run in this race because of the common cold.
Robe Decollete overtook Bella Rheia just before the finish line to win.
She broke the race record.
In 2001, Tokyo Yushun and Kikuka Sho became open to foreign-bred horses, and she became the first foreign-bred horse to win a Classic race.
And as of 2022, she is the only foreign-bred horse to have won a Classic race.
She was also the first grey horse to win a Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks). - After the Japanese Oaks, she ran in the American Oaks, which was popular in Japanese horse racing at the time due to Dance in the Mood and Cesario.
After returning to Japan, she did reasonably well in short-distance races, but retired without winning a race after the Japanese Oaks.
