Japanese racehorse
Embroidery (Japanese: エンブãƒã‚¤ãƒ€ãƒªãƒ¼, Hepburn: EnburoidarÄ«; foaled February 1, 2022) is an active Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse best known for winning the 2025 Oka Sho and ShÅ«ka Sho.[1][2][3]
2024: two-year-old season
[edit]
Embroidery debuted on June 2, 2024, in a 2-year-old maiden race at Tokyo Racecourse over a distance of 1,600 meters. Closing sharply along the rail in the stretch, she narrowly lost by half a length to Million Rose, finishing second.[4] Her next start came in a 2-year-old maiden race at Niigata Racecourse on July 27. Breaking sharply to take the lead, she dictated a slow pace before accelerating in the stretch to win by 7 lengths, securing her maiden victory in a record time of 1:45.5, breaking Niigata’s previous 1,800 meter turf course record for two-year-olds by 0.9 seconds.[5] On September 29, she started as the favorite in the Saffron Sho but finished 5th after a slow start.[6] She rebounded on November 16 in a 2yo 1-win class race, claiming her second career victory.[7]
2025: three-year-old season
[edit]
Embroidery opened her 3-year-old campaign in the Queen Cup on February 15, marking her graded stakes debut. Tracking second early, she surged clear in the stretch to win by two-and-a-half horse lengths in a race-record time of 1:32.2. This victory also made her the first graded stakes winner sired by Admire Mars.[8]
On April 13, she contested the Oka Sho (Japanese 1000 Guineas) at Hanshin Racecourse. Racing mid-pack, she threaded through traffic in the stretch to win decisively, securing her first grade 1 title and extending her graded stakes winning streak.[9] Notably, Admire Mars, a first-year sire with his first crop of foals, became the first freshman stallion since Epiphaneia (sire of Daring Tact, 2020 Oka Sho winner) to produce a Japanese classic winner.[10][11]
Following her Oka Sho triumph, Embroidery was sent to Northern Farm Tennei for a brief rest. On April 25, her owners, Silk Racing, announced via their official website that she would target the Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks) at Tokyo Racecourse on May 25.[12]
