A Shin Bullseye after racing

An American-bred son of Belgravia out of Miss Fear Factor, he debuted in 2013 as a two-year-old and spent his career mainly over sprint distances on turf. In the spring of 2016, at five, he took the Ocean Stakes at Nakayama as the fifth favourite for his one graded win, then held on for fifth in the Takamatsunomiya Kinen three weeks later. He left JRA racing in 2017, ran a single race at Sonoda in the autumn of 2019, and that same year, aged eight, moved to Saijo Agricultural High School in Higashihiroshima. He has lived with the equestrian club's students ever since, and in 2021 he became eligible for the retired horse support programme.
