SUBJECT: RESULT OF THE 2024 WORLD ALL-STAR JOCKEYS [Day One]
The World All-Star Jockeys commenced in 2015 as a renewed version of the World Super Jockeys Seriesstaged at Sapporo Racecourse in the summer. The annual event, though called off due to the COVID-19
pandemic in 2020 and 2021, is popular in Japan and throughout the world and boasts a total of more than
250 top-caliber participants from abroad during its 35-year history. This year’s series will also be conductedin celebration of the Asian Racing Conference which will be held at Sapporo between August 27 and
September 1.
In this series, points are awarded to each jockey according to their placing in each race, and the total points
accumulated from the four races run over the two-day period are calculated at the end of the second day todetermine the champion. At the same time, a team competition is carried out where “Team WAS (WorldAll-Star)” comprising overseas jockeys and NAR (National Association of Racing; local public racing)jockeys compete against “Team JRA” jockeys in their bid to attain the most points as a team.
This year’s “Team WAS” included Chak Yiu Ho (HK), Damian Lane (AUS), Joao Moreira (BRZ),Tadhg O'Shea (UAE), Delphine Santiago (FR), Karis Teetan (HK) and Tomohiro Yoshimura (NARHyogo).
“Team JRA” taking on the challenge included Norihiro Yokoyama (Eastern) who was selected for hisvictory in this year’s Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) and Kohei Matsuyama (Western), the JRA Award
Most Valuable Jockey (MVJ) winner in 2023. Keita Tosaki from the Eastern division and Christophe
Lemaire and Ryusei Sakai from the Western division were also among the lineup as the leaders in theirrespective jockey rankings (in wins) as of June 23. Yuga Kawada and Yutaka Take (both Western) werealso selected to join the series based on his outstanding performances.
Last year, Mirai Iwata (JRA) captured his first champion title, following the footsteps of his father, Yasunari
Iwata, who claimed the title in 2005. Close in second and third, respectively, were Rachel King (AUS) and2022 champion Yutaka Take while Team JRA won the team competition and remained undefeated in theseven years since the team competition began in 2015.

FP: Final Position / BK: Bracket Number / PP: Post Position / B: BlinkerNOTE: Figures quoted under Odds are shown in form of decimal odds (single unit is ¥100), and Fav indicates the order of favorites.

1st: (14) Karis Teetan—traveled wide in mid-field, advanced to 4th entering lane, displayed powerfulstretch run to overtake Moreira just before wire
“He was a bit slow out of the gate and was keen to go at one point but I was able to steady him. He foundhis rhythm and showed a good turn of foot.”
2nd: (9) Joao Moreira—reserved in 3rd, made strong bid in stretch to take command 100m out but
outdueled by Teetan just before wire for a nose second“We did our best. The horse was perfect.”
3rd: (12) Ryusei Sakai—quick out of gate, set pace until 100m out, continued to run gamely to secure 3rdplace
4th: (4) Damian Lane—sat around 4th from rear, angled out to turn widest, unleashed strong late charge
from outside—fastest over last 3 furlongs—to finish fourth“The horse ran very well. He might do better on softer going. Once he kicked into gear in the stretch, heclosed strongly.”
5th: (8) Chak Yiu Ho—pressed pace in 2nd, rallied for lead up to 200m pole but weakened“She was very easy to handle. She jumped well and we had a smooth trip.”
6th: (10) Kohei Matsuyama—raced behind Moreira, 4-5th from front, showed good effort but unable tokeep up with front runners
7th: (11) Delphine Santiago—off slow, accelerated early to improve position in backstretch, turned 3rd
corner in mid-pack, entered lane in 7th to 8th, ran eagerly but failed to reach contention“We were bumped by the horse running on the inside of us somewhere between the third and fourth corners.
My mount lost concentration and wasted energy. If it weren’t for that, we might have finished in a betterposition.”
8th: (6) Yutaka Take—unhurried around 10th early, advanced after 3rd corner, had too much ground tomake up
9th: (7) Keita Tosaki—hugged rail in 3rd to 4th, sustained bid but dropped back in last 150m
10th: (3) Norihiro Yokoyama—saved ground around 6th, showed effort until 100m out
11th: (5) Yuga Kawada— broke well, gradually retreated from mid-division to sit near rear in backstretch,shifted out for running room in straight, too late
12th: (1) Tomohiro Yoshimura— jumped eagerly, struggled to keep up speed in backstretch, gradually
fell back towards rear, failed to accelerate in straight
13th: (2) Tadhg O’Shea—off slow, trailed in rear, ran on rails turning for home, never a factor“The 1,200 meters may be a bit too short for him. He couldn’t handle the fast pace so a longer distancemight suit him better.”
14th: (13) Christophe Lemaire—slow break, made mild bid before last corner, ran wide into lane, never
fired
