Chimera Verite after racing
A graded dirt win at Monbetsu in the autumn of his juvenile year had people looking forward to his career. The JRA wins did not follow, but the memory of delivering on a big regional stage remains. His registration was cancelled in the spring of 2022 and he became a riding horse on the Hiruzen plateau.
