Japanese Success for Australian Owner

Tara Madgwick - Sunday August 27
Well known Australian owner breeder Robert Anderson, who won the 2014 VRC Myer Classic with homebred Bonaria, tasted success in a different jurisdiction on Sunday when his new acquisition Beluga won on debut in Japan.

Robert Anderson with Beluga after her purchaseA two year-old filly by Australian bred Japanese based sire Kinshasa No Kiseki (by Fuji Kiseki), Beluga scored a commanding debut win over 1200 metres at Sapporo.

Prepared by Mitsumasa Nakauchida, she missed the kick for champion jockey Joao Moreira, but quickly recovered to race away and win by four lengths.

Beluga is the first winner in Japan for Robert Anderson, who was granted a JRA owners licence last year and has two horses in work with Mitsumasa Nakauchida, a young trainer, who also trains horses for Sheikh Mohammed and Sheikh Fahad.

Beluga was sourced for Mr Anderson from the JRHA Select Yearling Sale last year with advice from  Ross Teitzel and Satomi Oka Bloodstock and secured for 48,600,000 yen (approx. $A559,838).

She features a superb Japanese Black Type pedigree and is the sixth winner from Admire Light, a half-sister to 2008 Champion Japanese Sprinter Sleepless Night from the family of Champion Japanese Mare Hishi Amazon and 2007 Japanese Horse of the Year Admire Moon.
