This is a cheer song by the idol group UMATENA, produced in conjunction with Saga Horse Racing’s 2025 slogan.

It embodies Saga Racing’s passionate wish to send powerful racehorses from the regions to the big stage, and its straightforward lyrics—declaring that dreams come true when spoken aloud—have surely given courage to many listeners.

Boasting an emotional, catchy melody that transcends idol pop, the track was released in January 2025, first performed at the group’s first-anniversary live show in April of the same year, and drew major attention for featuring the first-ever animated music video in regional horse racing history, created by Cygames Saga Studio.

Saga-jin no Torisetsu [Parody Song]Hibi Mayuno

Released in September 2020 as part of a video project, this piece is irresistible for anyone with ties to Saga.

Its easygoing humor invites a chuckle and makes you want to experience the warmth of the region for yourself.

Poem of the Frontier Guardssadamasashi

This is a moving song that portrays the eternity of nature and the fragility of human existence, questioning the very roots of life.

Inspired by the Manyoshu, its lyrics philosophically express the suffering and sorrow of living, as well as the pain of losing what we love.

Released in July 1980 as the theme song for the film “The Battle of Port Arthur (203 Kōchi),” it reached No.

2 on the Oricon charts.

Precisely because it depicts the impermanence of life fading away amid the tragedy of war, it brings the preciousness of peace all the more powerfully to the fore.

It is a soul-stirring work that we hope everyone will listen to—so that we do not forget a sorrowful history, and so that we can more deeply cherish the lives we have now.
