Red Rail's racing career

18 JRA starts, no wins (two 2nds, one 3rd), including two jump races. Finished 2nd in both the Bandaibashi Tokubetsu and the Bandaisan Tokubetsu in 2020.

Red Rail after racing

A son of Deep Impact who debuted at the end of 2018 and ran in both flat and jump races without ever winning. In the autumn of 2020 he came within a stride of victory with back-to-back runner-up finishes in the Bandaibashi Tokubetsu and the Bandaisan Tokubetsu, but a ruptured left front suspensory ligament ended his career after a race at Kokura in September 2021. Following a long recovery he moved in the summer of 2023 to a retirement farm in Kawachinagano, Osaka, where his days are now spent among the people who come to see him.
