Japan vs. Ireland

Two noses kept Forever Young from becoming the first Japan-based horse to win the Kentucky Derby six months ago.

“I believe the bumping didn’t much influence the result,” Yoshito Yahagi, trainer of Forever Young, said this week.

He’s won every race he’s started including his prep for the Breeders’ Cup, the Japan Dirt Mile last month.

Forever Young takes on a Kentucky-bred son of Justify who has raced exclusively on turf in Great Britain for Irish trainer Aidan O’Brien.   He is seeking his first BC Classic win after running 17 horses in 14 runnings of this 1 1/4-mile fixture.

It's important to note that Forever Young has just one blemish on his seven-race career and that was the Kentucky Derby.
