I have attended every Dubai World Cup since 2016…. Even went in 2020 before cancellation… 10 consecutive years, 9 runnings, 4 as media, 5 as stable coordinator. Had major FOMO all week not being there this year. But my little boy Tom sure appreciated me being home.

From Saudi Derby fourth to UAE Derby glory! Congratulations to Japan's newest @KentuckyDerby contender, WONDER DEAN. 👏 #ワンダーディーン #TheSaudiCup #DWC26

Congratulations to the connections of Wonder Dean in the UAE Derby! 100 points on the Euro/Mideast Road to the Kentucky Derby! 🌹

4レース UAE Derby（ＵＡＥダービーG2 ダート1900m） 日本からはワンダーディーン（栗東・高柳　大輔厩舎）　O.マーフィー騎手、パイロマンサー（栗東・吉村　圭司厩舎）J.ドイル騎手が出走。 ワンダーディーンが直線で弾じけて1着でゴール。　 #DWC26 #DWC #DubaiWorldCup #ドバイワールドカップ

@CL0k3 @KentuckyDerby The connections felt good about it. Seems they were right! Hope they feel good on the first Saturday in May!

@KeibaKate @KentuckyDerby i genuinely did not expect him to win, was rooting for him because Wonder Acute damsire (as an Umamusume fan is obligated to), but hey, turns out he was the best at 1900 lol

Japan has now won FIVE UAE Derbys in a row now! Wonder Dean on the left, I’ll see you in Kentucky on Wednesday and to the right, Danon Bourbon, See you in Kentucky on hopefully the 21st! Another 2 @KentuckyDerby runners for Japan! Let’s GO!

@kaitlinebenson Danon

Danon Bourbon too good 🇯🇵 Both he & Don Erectus have 40 Kentucky Derby points! Who comes?

The flicker that started with Lani has turned into an eternal flame of @KentuckyDerby dreaming for the Japanese. I love it! (Partially cause it’s my job but it’s also just awesome)

@abracing0 He will go down as one of the greats of all time regardless. Many greats lost. And his worst 3 finishes have all been 3rds.

Oh what could’ve been If Forever Young won this day, he’d surely go down as one of the greats on dirt

@paomaphotos @Kontenasan_bf Glad you enjoyed it! It’s my neighborhood track

I really enjoyed my day out at Nakayama racecourse today, what an impressive facility. While well out of the city it's easy to get to via public transport, the walk from the station is all covered and features photos of champion horses along the walls. Entry was free, and there were numerous well priced food and beverage options available.

@reddogcw They always have a lot of security every year. And there’s always more when Sheikh Mohammed is in attendance.

Seeing posts about how great security is for #DubaiWorldCup. Cool, but I thought everything was sunshine and rainbows there… why would they need security? 🤔
