I work as a horse trainer in Tokyo

Chapter 171 A rainy weekend

On Friday, Izumi confirmed the weather forecast again.

"It looks like it's definitely going to rain."

"Judging from the current situation, rain is a certainty, but it will not affect this week's competition. The racecourse is also well prepared."

Chijiang Taishou also communicated with him for a long time.

Although the rain has a big impact, it is also a good thing to be able to play normally.

"But it seems that it mainly starts from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning, and most likely stops in the afternoon."

Izumi Hikaru is also relatively reassured.

It is certain that the venue will be affected by the rain. If it rains for such a long time, it will not evaporate in one morning or one afternoon. It just depends on the conditions of the venue at that time.

But with the time to appear in the circle, he feels that it is not a problem to change it slightly.

"There's nothing we can do about it, there are exactly four horses coming out this week."

Chijiang Taishou also spread his hands helplessly.

The game is a game, and as long as it is not postponed due to extreme circumstances or delayed rain, you still have to participate in the game.

When such a situation occurs, it is actually easy for the race to become confusing. Most horse racing races are held under normal weather and at normal racecourses.

Once the venue becomes heavy, it is particularly unfriendly to inside track racing.

This is also one of the problems of artificial racecourses, but it is also a benefit. Compared with natural racecourses in Europe, at least riders know where the most serious water accumulation can be avoided, but there is definitely no way to solve the situation on the inner track.

"This is where it starts."

Hearing the splashing sound outside, Izumi turned his head and looked out the window.

It has been cloudy this morning, and it is normal to rain in the afternoon.

Now the racecourse has not notified them specifically, and they have to prepare in accordance with the original order.

"It's raining really fast. The carriage is already ready."

"Then arrange for the psychic doctor and the psychic sequence to get on the carriage. Drive slower today."

Izumi glanced at the time.

It's almost time, mainly because it's raining and the car can't go too fast.

"Okay, Master Izumi."

Shinji Kuramoto also went out to take charge of this matter.

咴咴——

咴咴——

The voice of the spiritual doctor was also heard from the stable.

Do you still have to go out when it rains?

No!
It hates the feeling of being wet by rain.

On the contrary, the psychic sequence behind it walked out first, and the carriage also stopped at the gate.

Da da da--

The mental sequence was nothing. Soon it came to the carriage and then shook the water on its body.

Where is this going?
The psychiatrist behind him who looked reluctant was also dragged over.

Seeing familiar partners going out together, the situation in the spiritual sequence has improved a lot.

For example, when many famous horses go on overseas expeditions, they will also bring companion horses with them. This is mainly to appease the emotions of the participating horses. As for another group of horses, they may go to participate in the competition, but most of them just go to accompany them on the trip.

咴咴——

Chichi——

The two horses that got on the bus also had a brief exchange.

bump!
With the sound of the door closing, the surrounding staff also breathed a sigh of relief.

They were also wearing plastic raincoats.

Done without a hitch.

Tomorrow is Special Week and Heart Grass.

As the two got on the bus, the horses in the stable looked at the rain outside curiously.

For some racehorses, rain is naturally not a good thing.

As a result, they couldn't go out to play casually, but fortunately in the morning, Izumi Hikaru had already ordered the staff to take them around.

"Master Izumi, let's set off then."

Kuramoto Shinji said.

No matter what the weather is like, if they haven't received a notice now, they must arrive at the racecourse on time to report.

"Well, be careful on the road and just call me directly when you get there."

Izumi Hikari was holding an umbrella.

He also bought this umbrella at a convenience store. If he puts this kind of umbrella at the umbrella stand at the door somewhere, he won't even know which umbrella he has when he comes back.

"Ok."

This is not the first time for Shinji Kuramoto.

He has accumulated enough experience here and is now also the second-in-command of the stable attendants in the stable.

After seeing them off, Izumi Hikaru also stretched.

Today's work is also over.

There is nothing else to do on a rainy day, so just sit in the office and read the latest reports, and then read the reviews of the sports channels.

He was watching this Kyoto Shimbun Cup too.

The ones that received the highest ratings were also Special Zhou and Holy King Halo.

These two horses can be said to be the well-deserved pinnacle, which means that in the special week, they still got the No. 1 status with a high winning rate. The host's evaluation was also quite high. The host also expressed his appreciation for Izumi Hikaru's horse training ability. Agree.

To be able to achieve this level shows how much effort the trainer has put in.

And based on the current situation, Bizhou is still in a stage of continued growth, and we don't know when it will reach its strongest state.

After comparing the next few horses, you can see many differences.This is not something that the trainer can change, and the host is talking more about growth.

Growth means hope.

But these horse racing can indeed be transferred to other routes in the future. There is no need to compete with strong horses. Anyway, there are many high-prize races in China.

It won't work in a competition of this level, but it will be different if you go to other high-level rewards.

This is the same situation as the seven horses running behind the Kyoto Grand Prix.

"Are you looking at poisonous milk again?"

"Anyway, there is nothing else to do now. I have to go check out the situation on the field tomorrow morning."

Izumi Hikaru also took a pen and took a few notes.

We also need to see which horses the program team will give a good prediction for. These data can also be used as a reference.

The rain continued.

After it was almost done, Izumi Hikaru went to the stable for a walk.

Listening to the rain hitting the windows is also quite interesting.

After walking around in a circle, he moved a stool, sat at the door of Special Week, and then read a comic book.

And especially Zhou would bite his clothes when he had nothing to do.

This week's competition is over, next week Good Opera and Old Dreams will participate in the competition.

The golden journey is still continuing to prepare for the Autumn Royal Prize in three weeks.

Donghaijiao has to wait until the end of this month.

After the number of horse racing increased, he had to be responsible for arranging more things.

And the good thing is that there are horses competing almost every week.

This also means that there will be income basically every week.

Now that the state of the horse racing has reached double lap, he doesn't have much to worry about.

As long as there are no other problems, it will be fine.
-
On Saturday, Izumi Hikaru also arrived at the Kyoto Racecourse early.

Naturally, he came so early to take a look at the conditions of the venue.

After an afternoon and a night of rain, the grass and mud at the Kyoto Racecourse have become heavy venues.

Compared with the grass and mud, the situation here is obviously more serious, because it is mainly filled with sand. Once the horse runs, it will easily cause a large amount of mud and water to hit the horse behind.

That’s not a good thing for a lot of racehorses.

Especially since the psychic doctor doesn't like rain.

The only good news now is that Psychic Doctor can run ahead. As long as he runs fast enough, it will be difficult for the horse in front to cause him such problems.

He was watching the field from one side, while the other riders were on the other side.

Riders will also be subject to special controls the day before the race, and they will be cut off from the outside world when entering the preparation center of the racecourse.

This is mainly to ensure the fairness of many competitions.

Simple conversations are still possible, and there is no big problem in slightly changing tactics during the debut circle.

“It feels like there’s no hope on this first day of mud.”

Izumi looked around and sighed.

Now that I have signed up, there is nothing I can do if I encounter such a situation again. I just hope that this competition will not consume too much on the Psychic Doctor.

The situation on the inner grass track is also not optimistic.

Neither Psychic Doctor nor Psychic Sequence are powerful racehorses.

Instead, he regretted not scheduling the Sunday picnic for this week's game.

This mare is full of strength and is definitely a good hand in running heavy ground. If she participates in the big prize in the future, she will definitely hope that the other party can come to a heavy ground after the rain.

Wait for it to rain!
"Master Izumi, let's go back first. It's starting to rain heavily again."

Chijiang Taishou also took two umbrellas.

Based on today's situation, this rain will probably last all day.

This is an extremely severe test for both horse and rider.

"I didn't expect Master Izumi to come see the venue so early."

Fukunaga Yuichi on the other side of the field also saw Izumi Hikaru.

This is really trying too hard.

"That's my master, but it's really hard to run in this place today."

Chi Tianqianyi was also a little helpless.

"This is also the rain and snow we will experience in the future, and we will have to compete in this weather. It is a good thing to get used to it now."

Wada Ryuji is the way.

There were Psychic Doctor games in the first few games today. I don’t know what new changes will be made on Master Izumi’s side.

"It seems that there is really no way to run on this side. The water accumulation is a bit too serious. If you step into it, it will be like stepping into a quagmire."

Takefeng is also observing the Kyoto Racecourse.

This year, Kyoto Racecourse has been open for a long time due to the rest of other racecourses. Coupled with the influence of weather, the condition of the venue has indeed become much more serious.

"Pull the horse out as much as possible. If it is pinned in and collapses, the horse's energy may have been exhausted before the race is finished."

Takeshiro Takeshiro has a similar view.

Finally, he mentioned a few more points that needed attention.

"I'm just taking a general look at it now, but the most important thing is to see how it feels when running. There may be problems in other places as well."

Wu Feng continued.

Given the current situation, there will be many new problems with the special week's rewards.

But he still has confidence in the special week.
