On the 20th, in R7 at Sapporo, the 16-runner race was won by 104/1 outsider Warewa Uminoko. Second place was secured by the favored Shadow Eris, and 19/1 Paulette finished in third. The trifecta returned a dividend of 17.73 million yen, creating a major upset. There were just four winning tickets.

Additionally, it marked the first time a dividend exceeded 10 million yen at Sapporo racecourse. The winning jockey Tomita expressed his surprise, 'Is that true? Warewa Uminoko was underrated, and I knew she has ability.'
