How lucky are we to share the same timeline as Forever Young? 😭🇯🇵 This Japanese superstar burst onto the U.S. racing scene when he nearly won the 2024 Kentucky Derby alongside Sierra Leone and Mystik Dan. Then, in 2025, he won the Breeders’ Cup Classic, becoming the first Japanese horse to win the race, cementing his place in history. 🏆 Now, ahead of a return to the 2026 Breeders’ Cup Classic, Forever Young is finally back on U.S. soil and set to make his stateside debut this Friday at the re-opening of Belmont Park in New York. It will be the first time racing has taken place at Belmont since 2023, and what better way to kick things off than with a superstar like Forever Young? 🇯🇵✨ #umamusume #フォーエバーヤング #ottb #japan #racehorse @NYRA
