I'm actually not sure if the BC has ever done an installation like this in the United States

Take a sneak peek at the Breeders' Cup Exhibition presented by @Cygames_PR! 👀 Fans will be able to experience the Breeders' Cup Exhibition from May 17 through June 7 at Tokyo Racecourse.

It's hard to put into words how it feels to see the scene go from two dozen people to hundreds

@ilovemephone @NotF0843635728 US sports not governed by legal national cartels are basically beyond obscure or have collapsed in popularity since ww2. see also: boxing
English
@rdrisms @NotF0843635728 it’s weird cause plenty of other american sports know the recipe. like having actual merch a la jerseys and mugs and stuff and also being able to keep up with it Normally and there being like, detailed and decent databases of games and players

keiba and uma are rife with misinformation in English not because of children or tiktok or youtubers but because nearly all of it has been in Japanese and almost nobody cared enough to translate or retell it from a culture that has been slow to embrace digitization
English
@ilovemephone @NotF0843635728 I'd go so far as to say that western racing doesn't really know how to serve fans in the way "conventional" sports do
in baseball, we have bbreference, fangraphs, baseball savant, film room, etc. racing only has PPs which are often not free and incomprehensible to casuals

@ilovemephone @NotF0843635728 BH and EQ are both crappy industry, not fan-oriented sites and nobody wants to build a better one because the whole sport is in contraction. Every time I see the in-pdf advertisement for standing studs in the equibase reports it pisses me off
English
@NotF0843635728 Definitely, although my emphasis here is about the reporting and feature writing that brings those statistics to life
the well-documented nature of keiba in terms of stats is definitely a result of market demand and JRA centralization
English
i usually take any opportunity i can to shit on the western press for their general and increasing neglect of racing, but hard to blame them here. this is an entire market that did not exist until last year, or if one wants to be extremely charitable, the last 10 years or so

I watched an entire NHK documentary about Chiyonofuji, the last great Yokozuna of the Showa era, because of her

to me what makes Rickey special is not the 11 g/jpn1s or lengthy career, but that his first G1 win was at a 272/1 odds upset, reflecting a total failure of both sharps and casuals to identify his quality (remarkable in a country that probably has the biggest tips industry)

every time people find out copano rickey was a dirt demon i laugh oomf got 11 combined g1s + jpn1s for love of the game + feng shui power
