Fame Game after racing
Three Diamond Stakes tell you what he was: a stayer to his bones, and second in the 2015 Tenno Sho (Spring). He retired to a farm in Koori, Fukushima, run by a farrier, where the legs that always needed watching are in expert hands. He is turned out alone during the day and reported to be stable.
