Nike Planet after racing
Known to everyone as Oni-kun, a Fukushima favourite who retired without a win. He was a weak, retiring sort in the herd once; patient care turned him around, and now he leads the charge out into the field. No wins, and the children adore him. Proof that a racing record measures only one thing.
