“If this was not the Triumphal Arch Prize, I don’t know if I was in such a difficult situation.”
These are the words I answered in the “Daily Sports” interview before the race.
ButArch of TriumphThe goal is to challenge and the dream is to winTaketoyoHe expected a reality too cruel for the jockey.
It turns out that the feed used by A. O’Brien’s stables in Ireland, which was scheduled to participate in the Triumphal Arch Award (G1), contains prohibited drugs. European media such as Racing Post reported on the night of the 3rd that they decided not to race because the urine sample tested positive for Zyrupaterol, which is banned in Europe.
This time, the four horses selected were all leading horses in Mogle, Serpentine and Sovereign, including Japan, where Taketoyo was scheduled to ride.
According to the electronic version of the Racing Post, Rev. O’Brien said: “The sample I sent to the Irish Equine Center was fine, but there is a problem with the accuracy of the test. The French laboratory returned a positive result.” All the horses scheduled to run in France tested positive, “he commented on the test results.” It may have been okay to run, but I wasn’t sure. I am very disappointed, “he said in his aching heart.
On day 2, Taketoyo won the Dalia award in the listed race at the Sun Crew racetrack in Amarena with five horses. In “Kiefer’s Salon”, the website of Kiefers, owner of the horse, said: “It was a really strong race! I am looking forward to the grand prize in the future. Gained momentum for Sunday! I will do my best for the award! “
“In Japan last summer, the feed additive ‘Green Cal’ was found to contain theobromine, which is a prohibited drug, and many horses scheduled to run that week were excluded from the race. There was an incident that turned into.
It’s a shame that a similar incident occurred on a large overseas stage called the Triumphal Arch Award due to the great commotion at this time. “
Also, Taketoyo’s jockey has bitter memories of the past due to prohibited drugs.
