00:01Japan is bidding for revenge.
00:04Twenty years after Hearts Cry suffered an agonizing defeat in the King George,
00:09Japan is readying a two-pronged attack on the race later this month.
00:13Terry Ishida tells us more.
00:17Twenty years since Hearts Cry, I've been always dreaming
00:21to send our good horse to race in King George Stakes.
00:26I think distance is okay and if the surface is not heavy, I'm happier
00:33because European ground, heavy ground is quite different from our Japanese surface.
00:41I hope horse lands in the ideal condition against strong horses in New York.
00:47Like anybody horse found in the world is dreaming to win the race like that.
00:53We luckily have Woodberg in the race.
00:58He was very close second in the Emperor's Cup to a chronogenic Japanese top race horse.
01:07How good, I can't say how good he is, but he suits this race.
01:12But I want so much, so I really want the race to be performed on a good ground and a
01:21big audience in Europe.
01:23I was so honored to have a membership of the Jockey Club.
01:28I'm so happy and honored to attend this kind of race with such a nice race horse from Japan.
01:37Later.
01:39Love.
01:44Let's say this.
01:45I am so glad how he is, you am.
