I woke up at 1400 hrs.
Time to bet and watch the third crown race, Kikkasho (GI).
We all knew Yutaka Take's Admire Main was going to take a big lead...
He actually did lead the race till the last furlong and all we needed was the colts staying in the back to overwhelm as forecasted...
But it wasn't the double crown horse, nor the winner of the preliminary race that conquered...

it was Yutaka's younger brother Koshiro Take's underdog colt Song Of Wind that won the last crown... double crown horse Meisho Samson finished 4th and the winner of the preliminary race and 3rd at the Derby, Dream Passport finished 2nd... Yutaka's Admire Main, the runner-up of the Derby finished 3rd...
oh no... no payback again...

14時に目が覚めた。
3冠目の菊花賞(GI)に賭けて、レースを見る時間だ。
みんな武豊のアドマイヤメインが大逃げを打つことは知っていた…。
実際、彼は最後の1ハロンまでリードを奪っていて、あとは予想通り後ろの方にいる若駒たちが圧倒してくれれば…
でもレースを支配したのは、2冠馬でも無く、トライアルの優勝馬でも無かった…
写真:豊の弟、武幸四郎が人気薄のソングオブウインドが最後の3冠目を勝った…2冠馬メイショウサムソンは4着に終わり、トライアルを優勝、ダービー3着だったドリームパスポートは2着に終わった…
あ、やべ…また払い戻し無しだ…
