Their white gene is dominant, so she didn't get it from the dam. Buchiko's 2022 colt is not white either. Buchiko will either give a white gene or a bay gene.

So with Sodashi being retired, what stallion will they choose for her next year?

I think maybe Drefong?

I think sending her to Orfevre would be cool.

I seriously hope that Makoto Kaneko will send her to Orfevre so that her baby could get the distance and love either surface (especially dirt).
Both Drefong and Mind Your Biscuits would be cool, too.

I would think that he is a real possibility, too.

And she can be bred to the Sunday Silence-line stallions (including Equinox), Epiphaneia, Maurice etc, of course!

Mick Fire(JPN), 2020C. Sinister Minister(USA) x Mariage(JPN) by Brian's Time(USA), won the final running of the Derby Grand Prix 2000m dirt for 3yos at Morioka on Oct 1st 2023.
The winner of the Dirt Triple Crown in Minami-Kanto Circuit remains unbeaten with 7 wins from 7 starts!

Mandarin Hero(JPN)(Shanghai Bobby) was 2nd.
That was an exciting race!!! 8-)

The 2020 Triple Tiara winner Daring Tact(JPN), Epiphaneia(JPN) x Daring Bird(JPN) by King Kamehameha(JPN), retired from racing due to her old injury.
She was winless after the Shuka Sho where she completed the Triple Tiara while remaining undefeated.
But her gutsy efforts especially in the 2020 Japan Cup (3rd) and 2022 Japan Cup (4th) are unforgettable, too.
She lost her best form due to a suspensory injury.
Thanks for the memories and best of luck to her as a broodmare (at Okada Stud)!!

Happy retirement to her. I enjoyed watching her her run when she was at her best. The 2020 Japan Cup was a great race.

Personally I will be happy even if Sodashi is bred to Gold Ship himself with a similar reason as I like Orfevre, haha. :D
Gold Ship is successful at stud (BRF) siring five group winners including Japanese Oaks winner Uberleben. 8-)
His babies seem to have been full of stamina and not excessively quirky, so far, haha! :lol:

NAR races are usually in the morning EST time. I watched Ushba Tesoro the other day and I think it was around 7am.

Would love to see Geoglyph win but I think he might be better on turf.
