TENSHINRAMMAN - THE FOLLOW-UP
'Tenny' was one of only two Carrot Club horses to win a race yesterday (the other being a colt called Epiphaneia, crossing the line first on his debut), with her victory being shown on TV last night in the Chuo Keiba Digest programme, which is a regular broadcast on channel 8.

The seemingly effortless run-in at Tokyo, plus the stunning pace shown at the end of her first outing at Niigata, has people thinking she's perhaps better suited to longer distances, but Tanaka-san (the jockey that has ridden 'Tenny' on both of her track excursions so far) is convinced of one thing - Tenshinramman is a real racer that has a long and exciting career ahead of her. This picture shows her in the paddock, minus jockey, as he was still getting ready after winning the first race of the day!
