Real Life[]
- “The Story of Queen Begins
Your family such as your brother succeeded gorgeously.
The rivals will keep chasing you.
But you don't need to care about stories that someone made.
Just go forward with your full power.
Weave your own stories of Queen.” - ―JRA Portrait of the Bucephalus[2]
Daiwa Scarlet[3] is a racehorse in the middle of 2000s. She won four G1s and all races she ran were within quinella, second place or greater. She and Vodka are known as two tops of 2007-Classic fillies because they defeated many male horses.
- Scarlet and Vodka's rivalry is well-known. They fought 5 times. Scarlet won 2 times, 1 time both are lost (Daiwa Scarlet finished earlier), and Vodka won 2 times.
- At 2008 Tenno Sho Autumn, Daiwa Scarlet lost to Vodka, by only two-centimeter difference. Fans say that match is one of the best bouts for two.
- At the moment of finish, Fuji TV announcer Aoshima "Bakushin O" Tatsuya shouted "Dai sessen no goal! (It's a super close match and finished!)" probably. But his voice sounds like "Dai sessen DOGOOOON!". Now, "Dai sessen DOGOOOOON!" is treated like a synonymous for super close match in horseracing, It is adopted in Uma Musume game version commentary, too.
- She won the Arima Kinen for the first time in 37 years as a mare, just like Vodka won the Derby.
- She is the last winner of JRA Award for Best Horse by Home-bred Sire. From 2008, preferential treatments for maru-chichi[Note 1] were abolished because Japanese-bred sires could rival foreign-bred ones enough. Actually, from 2008 until now, leading sire of Japan has been home-bred, starting with her father, Agnes Tachyon.
- She bore ten fillies in a row. eleventh foal is the first colt in her children.
- In 2022, Daiwa Scarlet's granddaughter Scarlet Tale mated with Vodka's son Tanino Frankel. The two's descendant was foaled on January 9, 2023.
- On January 17, 2024, Daiwa Scarlet was retired from breeding.
Notes[]
- ↑ Horses by Japanese-bred sire. Preferential treatments for maru-chichi and foreign-bred restrictions in Japanese horseracing were for protecting Japanese horse productions from freeing of trade since 1971.
