Puro Magic’s recent blistering performance highlighted Japan’s sprinting division, potentially drawing attention from The Everest (Gr 1 1200m) slot-holders for future international competition. On July 27, the Melbourne Cup and The Everest were approved for the Japanese betting market, a move expected to boost the Australian Turf Club and Victoria Racing Club. Earlier, on June 7, Yutaka Take became the oldest jockey to win a Japan Racing Association Grade 1 race when Sixpence secured victory in the Yasuda Kinen (G1) at Tokyo. This followed Seina Imamura’s historic win aboard Juryoku Pierrot in the Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks) (G1) on May 24, making her the first female jockey to compete in and win a Japanese classic.
