I work as a horse trainer in Tokyo

Chapter 310 Aiming for Triple Crown

After the good opera training in the afternoon, it was time for the official interview.

"What do you think about the second chrysanthemum viewing since the opening of your stable?"

This year’s chrysanthemum viewing is also attracting much attention.

Everyone felt it was a pity last year, but the pity has happened again.

Whether Good Opera can successfully win the Triple Crown is something that everyone wants to know now. As a horse with European blood, it has exceeded many people's expectations to achieve such results.

From the purchase price alone, the horse owner has already made a huge profit.

And there will be more room for this horse next year. The previous strong horses have the idea of ​​​​retiring at the end of this year. This was revealed in previous interviews with the Japan Cup.

"In terms of opinions, I don't actually have that much, but the pressure is still very high. When I failed last year, I still remember the feeling in my heart. This year we will use our strongest state to deal with this game."

Izumi Hikaru said while looking at the camera.

That great escape was certainly not something a racehorse could crack.

But this time it was obviously not the great escape of the century like last time.

"In terms of distance, do you think Good Opera can adapt to long-distance competitions?"

The long distance of three thousand meters is a test for horse racing.

Mejiro Ranch used to pursue long-distance horse racing, but now after the reform, the focus of the central competition is obviously more on the middle distance, and Mujiro Ranch Horse Racing has an extremely good ranking in the long distance.

"Although I have never run a three-thousand-meter race before, whether it is training or previous competitions, I have proven that Hao Opera is very strong in endurance."

Izumi Hikaru said with confidence.

Endurance and strength are both areas where a good opera is strong.

The first pity is that there are too many strong horses abroad now, otherwise you would really have chosen to give it a try.

"Actually, everyone is still curious about Good Opera's arrangements for the second half of the year. After all, there are still two months after the Chrysanthemum Appreciation ends."

Ishimura Yuri asked as he looked at Hao Opera who was in a daze.

She has become accustomed to the other person's daily daze.

Good Opera is so quiet most of the time, but there is a strong fighting spirit on the playing field. Although it cannot be said to be very high in terms of performance, it is still much better than in previous games.

"We have a goal now. After discussing with the horse owners, we have plans to compete abroad. This will also be the first time our stable participates in an overseas event."

Although he is a horse trainer, he is also doing the work of a horse owner.

How the event is arranged is up to Izumi Hikaru.

In order to prevent two of your own horses from colliding with each other, it is best to race abroad.

Hao Opera, who was in a daze, quickly ended his interview.

After it was over, Izumi Hikaru gave the other party a few carrot sticks.

Golden Journeys and Special Weeks also get a few.

The two of them have also resumed training during this period, their physical examinations are completely fine, and their fatigue is slowly recovering.

By the end of this week's competition, the training level has improved a bit. After all, the horses they have to deal with are very strong.

Dong Haijiao has been training with Stinger during this period.

They both signed up for this year's Mile Champions Cup.
-

Chase before Thursday's game.

Izumi Hikaru has finished watching Narita Road and The Admiration for Orihime.

There were no issues with the pre-race condition of these two horses.

Good Opera still follows the previous agreement and pursues the chase with Naughty Suzuka.

However, this time during the pursuit, he could clearly see that the opponent's tactics had changed. Compared with the previous advance, it was now a pursuit of the horse from behind.

As for the competition, there were only a few races in total, and Wu Feng did make a proposal to change the running method.

For a racehorse, most racehorses are likely to undergo many changes in running style from their debut to retirement.

One is a new discovery for riders and trainers.

One possibility is the influence of the competition venue. Special Zhou’s running style in the first half and second half of this year is obviously different.

After running the Kobe Shimbun Cup with Good Opera, the opposing team obviously asked Naughty Suzuka to make a new attempt.

As for the next performance on the chrysanthemum field, it is definitely not clear.

There are definitely a variety of choices to be made regarding the running methods of horse racing, and there are even options to add props and some changes to horse racing habits.

The difficulty of breeding a pony is high.

Izumi clearly felt this way when he was training other less famous racehorses. The strongest feeling was when working with horses with bad tempers like Emperor Nickname and Donghai, it was difficult for them to meet the standards.

But there is a trainer who needs to overcome these problems, accumulate experience and find new ways to change during the training process.

Chichi——

Chichi——

Although the good opera is not very familiar with the partners who are chasing together this time, there is no sign of laziness during the chase.

The two racehorses set out together.

Wada Ryuji and Laoning Masayoshi both pushed forward.

Lao Ming Zhengyi also came to Lidong Training Center specifically for riding this time.

Good opera is outside, naughty Suzuka is inside.

We've only played each other once before. The acceleration of a good opera is to successfully catch up with the front from the rear.

This time, the other party really didn't say much about the final touches, and they stuck to the good opera all the way.

"I feel that there are really no problems in the recent training. I have a strong ability in the end kick."

Master Tachibana was very satisfied with this.

This time, his stable can be said to be the stable that attracted the most attention at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation.

Among the two horses in his stable, one is the second most popular and the other is the fourth most popular. Not all stables can have this kind of strength.

He also felt good about chasing after Orihime's horse racing.

During this period of time, he devoted all his energy to these two horses, and the riders also found the top riders in the country.

If he can finish in the top two in Grade 1 like Izumi Stables did, then he will definitely make headlines.

“The strength of the last foot is really good, but the running method beforehand is also very strong.”

Izumi Mitsuichi was on the side.

There is indeed no problem with the last foot, and it seems that the opponent's tactics will also change this time.

As the only long-distance competition for three-year-olds, Chrysanthemum Appreciation is indeed very difficult and highly differentiated.

However, this year's tactical situation is not as difficult as Special Week.

As long as you can control the way forward, it is not very difficult to win this game, but there is indeed one more naughty Suzuka in the horse racing that needs attention.

Wada Ryuji, who was chasing before the game, also noticed the strong enemy next to him.

In addition to the two previous giants, there is now another naughty Suzuka.

Compared with the Kobe Shimbun Cup, he obviously felt that the opponent's strength had increased, which was also the result of changing tactics.

One more thing to add to the list of things to watch out for.

Grandma Masayoshi is very satisfied with the strength of Naughty Suzuka.

There's a great opera next to it!

He also succeeded in getting a good horse this time.

It was undoubtedly a surprise for him. In the final stage of the singles competition, there was still some gap between the two horses, but Hao Quan still used his strength to keep them away some distance in the final stage.

But these are acceptable ranges for riders and teams.

After all, there are more tactical issues in the game. With fifteen horses competing together, the route is definitely not as clear as the chase before the game. The other rider is also a newcomer, and his experience is obviously not as good as their predecessors.

Compared with previous competitions, this year’s Chrysanthemum Appreciation was indeed not full.

A distance of three thousand meters is enough to dissuade many racehorses.

After Hao Opera finished the chase, he began to conduct a physical examination and weight measurement.

After finishing the rest, I went back to the stable and took a comfortable bath, and the sweat on my body was quickly washed away.

There was no high-intensity training for the remaining three days.

Ryuji Wada and Hikaru Izumi briefly talked about the results of the chase.

This time, I didn't feel any problems with others, and even said that my condition was much better than I thought before, and the growth effect was very obvious.

I didn't expect that Master Izumi's game arrangement would be really useful.

But this time the opponents are also very strong, and what we are most looking forward to now is the confirmation of the gate location.

During the pre-game interview, Ryuji Wada had a straight face.

During the interview, I was asked a lot of questions, the most important of which was the outlook for the Triple Crown horse. After so many years of development in the horse industry, there are many racehorses that can achieve the Triple Crown, and most of the racehorses have also been lost in the Chrysanthemum Awards. The possibility of domination.

It is said that Chrysanthemum Appreciation is a difficult challenge for both horses and riders.

In an interview, Wada Ryuji said that Haoda Opera has made the best adjustments.

"Who do you think Wada Ryuji's biggest opponent is in this game?"

"I feel like I admire Orihime and Taketoyo-senpai."

Wada Ryuji thought for a moment and then said.

He doesn't have much confidence in the end kick and can beat the opponent again, so this time he must be as careful as possible.

As the jockey of the most popular horse race, he will be targeted more than before.

If it was really that easy, there wouldn't be just a few Triple Crown horses over the years.

As for tactics, he definitely still has to wait for Izumi Hikaru's tactical arrangements. In the previous games, the tactics Izumi Hikaru devised for him perfectly brought out his harmonious opera strength.

At the end of the interview, there was also a question about tactics. Ryuji Wada expressed that he still hopes to make the good opera run more comfortable.

Aiming to win the last of the three crowns, the Chrysanthemum Award!

After the interview, Wada Ryuji briefly chatted with all the riders who were interviewed.

The person we talked about the most was my friend Yuichi Fukunaga. Yuichi Fukunaga successfully got a horse that was the sixth most popular horse in the Chrysanthemum Awards.

"Long Er, you have to be careful."

"Come here on horseback."

Wada Ryuji knew that he was no longer the same.

He must seize such an opportunity tightly.
