is a thoroughbred breeding facility located in Abira on the island of Hokkaido in Japan. The farm was begun in the late 1970s, early 1980s by the late Zenya Yoshida and is now run jointly by his sons (Katsumi, Haruya and Teruya Yoshida), known collectively as the Shadai Group.〔( Racing and Sports ) 11-11-06〕 As of 2006, the brothers own 3,000 horses worldwide.〔 The farm houses stallions from Japan and many other countries and racing circuits.〔(NY Times article on War Emblem (4-28-08) )〕 The grounds also house a racing museum and tourist park called the Northern Horse Park and the Northern Farm Kuko, a large horse training and conditioning facility. The most expensive acquisition was War Emblem, who was bought for 17 million dollars in 2002 to replace Sunday Silence who died suddenly that year of a heart attack. War Emblem was a reluctant breeder, siring only 106 registered foals between 2004 and 2011. He did not sire a foal after 2012 and was pensioned and returned to the United States in the fall of 2015 to Old Friends Equine. Other recent acquisitions include 2010 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes winner Harbinger〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bloodhorse.com/stallion-register/sr_sire_page.asp?refno=7797116&origin=search&source=weatherbys&searchsource=weatherbys )〕 and 2010 Epsom Derby and Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner Workforce. ==Current Stallions== *Belshazzar *Captain Thule *Casino Drive *Daiwa Major *Danon Chantilly *Dance in the Dark *Deep Brillante *Deep Impact *Dream Journey *Eishin Flash *French Deputy *Gold Allure *Harbinger *Heart's Cry *Just A Way *King Kamehameha *Kinshasa no Kiseki *Kurofune *Lord Kanaloa *Manhattan Cafe *Neo Universe *Novellist *Orfevre *Rulership *Smart Falcon *Symboli Kris S *Turtle Bowl *Victoire Pisa *Workforce *Zenno Rob Roy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shadai Stallion Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
