• In the Momiji Stakes, he lost to Fuji Kiseki.
  (The 2nd race of “Fuji Kiseki All Races“)
  The difference was only about a length, but Fuji Kiseki still had a lot of energy left.
• In the Radio Tampa Hai Sansai Stakes, he was 2nd favorite.
  He won by a nose over the 2nd place finisher, Narita King O.
  It was his first grade-race win.
• In the Wakaba Stakes, he was 1st favorite.
  He was caught cross-running and crashed into the inner railing.
• Before the Satsuki Sho, the first classic race, many horse racing fans predicted that Fuji Kiseki was sure to win the Double Crown and had a good chance of becoming a Triple Crown winner.
  But he retired due to injury.
• In the Satsuki Sho, he was 4th favorite.
  His mental aftereffects from the Wakaba Stakes were a concern, but he came in 2nd.
  Genuine won the race.
• In the Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby), the second classic race, he was 1st favorite.
  In the slow-paced race, he showed a great finishing kick.
  He won by 1+1/2 lengths over the 2nd place finisher, Genuine.
  It was his first G1 win.
  He became the first Derby horse sired by Sunday Silence.
• He did not win when it came to the autumn season.
  Then he developed flexor tendonitis and retired.

Evaluation of Him

• He is sometimes referred to as the weakest Derby horse.
  Compared to the other weakest Derby horses mentioned, his racing results are not so bad.
  ///
  However, he was often compared to Fuji Kiseki and Dance Partner, who are the same age.
  As mentioned above, Fuji Kiseki was said to be a Triple Crown horse if he had not been injured.
  ///
  A week before he won the Derby, Dance Partner won the Oaks on the same track conditions in a faster time than he did.
  He was ridiculed as a slower Derby horse than the Oaks horse because, unlike today, it was common that fillies were weaker than colts.
  Moreover, he was placed lower in the Kikuka Sho than Dance Partner, who would have been in poor condition coming back from France.

As a sire

• His crops were mainly active in dirt races in Japan.
  He also worked as a stallion in Australia.
• He sired three G1 horses.
  (Except for the G1 races won by Hollow Bullet, which are G1 races with no international rating.)
• Jeram Special was born in Australia.
  He won a G1 race in Malaysia.
• Hollow Bullet was born in Australia.
  She won the two G1 races in Australia.
• Man of Purser won the Derby Grand Prix.
