"…What do you want? I’m talking to my “sister” right now. Please don’t interrupt."

- Admire Vega

Profile
A thoroughbred who was predicted to have great skill from a young age. She seems unusually indifferent towards racing, but doesn’t go a day without practicing. She seems to hold great hostility towards not only trainers, but all officials in the Twinkle Series, which may have something to do with the circumstances of her youth…?

Real Life
"Six years have passed since his mother Vega won the Double Tiara. Her son has also become the first-magnitude star!"

- 1999 Japanese Derby, by Masaharu Miyake (Fuji TV)

Admire Vega is a recehorse in the early 2000s. He won the Derby and shared the Triple Crown with T.M. Opera O and Narita Top Road.

Top-tier bloodline (Sunday Silence and Vega), but Vega carried twins. Conventional wisdom in horse racing is that twins do not perform well in racing, so they killed one of the fetus while still in the womb, and let the other be born. Admire Vega was the surviving one.

After Kikka Sho, his stable aimed at Takarazuka Kinen, however, he got suspensory ligament dismitis and retired.

As a broodsire, four G1 winners were born, including two hurdle racers.


 * Though Vega sounds feminine, he is a stallion. It comes from his mother's name.
 * His jockey Yutaka Take won the Derby twice in a row, for the first time in Japanese horseracing history.
