It’s neat that he took an interest in Japanese racing enough to buy and breed horses there, when so many other jurisdictions have an easier barrier to entry (I know he has horses in Ireland and Dubai now and then) but like France or Australia.
And of course the horse is gonna have the most Fipke name ever.
