anyone know what time this race goes off U.S. time? I want to log into twinspires to watch it. 2,400 meters (1 1/2 miles) at Tokyo Racecourse. Looking forward to seeing Sodashi and Uberleben. JRA makes plushies of horses who have won 2 G1 races, but they made some of the gorgeous Sodashi and they sold out there in 2 hours, a record. My goodness but the white princess is beyond gorgeous but much more than a pretty face. Video: twitter.com/i/status/1394426810201370626

Sodashi just couldn't relax Not her day. She was right there....then she lost ground in that very last part of the stretch. It's such a joy seeing that beautiful pure white streak running in a race.
I put w/p on both her and Uberleben ---- not thoroughly disappointed since that is the first G1 win for Gold Ship. Both the sire and BMS stand at Big Red Farm where owner died recently so I am happy for them.
Nice race though:

Japanese Derby 12f on Turf w/field of 17, some truly beautiful pedigrees, elite 12F pedigrees, one of best G1 races I've seen in memory. I had to stay up late but got some other friends to watch with me and we emailed back and forth.
They also showed the horses in groups and individually for a full 25 mintues or so......got a good look. Everything about it was top notch. Drug free racing has a different look and feel.
