Accompanied by a narration that begins, “We run at all times,” the legendary racehorses of their eras appear on screen.
Oguri Cap, Deep Impact—it feels as if these famous horses were racing across the turf just yesterday.
The background music that heightens the emotion, Gen Hoshino’s ‘Isshun’ (A Moment), is such a wonderful song.
I’ve heard that Hoshino wrote this piece specifically for the JRA 70th Anniversary brand commercial, which shows just how deep the sentiment for JRA’s history runs.
This is a moving song you’ll want to keep listening to—whether it brings to mind the great racehorses or the person you love.
