Trivia[]

- In real life, Teio was sired by Symboli Rudolf. This is most likely why she appeared to be a big fan of the student council president in the anime.
Real Life[]
- “Biwa Hayahide and Tokai Teio!
Does he show the pride of Derby horse?!
Tokai Teio, the miraculous revival!” - ―1993 Arima Kinen, by Masayuki Sakai (Fuji TV)[1]
Tokai Teio[2] was a racehorse in 1990s. He became an undefeat Double Crown next to his father Symboli Rudolf, but he had to give up Kikka Sho because of leg fractures.
He has overwhelming race ability, though, he broke his leg three times, and repeated resting. Nevertheless he finally won Arima Kinen after almost one year rest.
- His name "Teio (emperor)" comes from his father. His breeder Nagahama Farm named him Hamano Teio as a childhood name. When Uchimura bought him, he succeeded the name but changing his crown to Tokai[Note 1].
- He often stepped like a passage in dressage on the paddock. People often called it "Teio Step." This is referred to Uma Musume.
- He is known as a "good-looking horse". After he retired, his photo album was released, titled "Yume o Kakeru."
- He won Japan Cup two generations in a row. In those days, it was difficult for Japanese horses to win foreign ones.
- The span that he rested before last Arima was 364 days. This is still the record of JRA.
