After returning from injury and winning last week's Arima Kinen, jockey Yutaka Take is aiming for an unprecedented milestone in the JRA by winning all flat JRA G1 races throughout his illustrious career.

With his dramatic victory in the Arima Kinen still fresh in the minds of fans. Yutaka Take will be riding Century Bond, a son of Kizuna in the G1 Hopeful Stakes. Although he was unable to ride him on his last start, in the Kigiku Sho, due to injury. The partnership was intact for two races in Sapporo. "I have the impression that he is a very good horse. In the summer, I thought he would need time to mature, but he had a good win in the last race. It is a race for 2-year-olds, so I think every horse has a chance." Yutaka Take said.

"His condition is as good as ever. He recovered quickly after his last race, so much so that he did not need any veterinary treatment. His body has grown overall since his debut. I'll leave all the tactics to Yutaka, who won the Arima Kinen." Assistant Trainer Kanie said.
