Jeweler (Japanese: ジュエラー, foaled 17 January 2013) is a Japanese
Background
Jeweler is a bay mare with a large white
She was from the first crop of foals sired by Victoire Pisa, whose wins included the Satsuki Shō, Arima Kinen and Dubai World Cup. Jeweler's dam showed high-class form in Europe, winning three of her eight races including the Prix Penelope in 2001.[2] After being exported to Japan she became a successful broodmare whose other foal have included the multiple Grade 3 winner One Carat. She was a female-line descendant of the French broodmare Brescia (foaled 1953) who has been the ancestor of many major winners including Anabaa.[3]
Racing career
2015: two-year-old season
On 29 November 2015 Jeweler began her track career in a contest for previously unraced juveniles at Kyoto Racecourse. Racing over 1800 metres on firm ground she won from Admire Kizuna and thirteen others.[4]
2016: three-year-old season
On her three-year-old debut Jeweler was matched against male opposition in the Grade 3
In the Oka Sho at the same track on 10 April the filly started 4/1 third choice in the betting behind the 2015 juvenile champion Major Emblem with Sinhalite being made the second favourite. The other fifteen runners, none of whom started at less than 20/1 included Solveig (Fillies' Revue), Blanc Bonheur (Hakodate Nisai Stakes) and Denko Ange (Artemis Stakes). After racing at the rear of the field in the early stages Jeweler was switched to the wide outside on the final turn and began to make rapid progress in the straight. She reeled in the leaders with a sustained run, caught Sinhalite in the final stride and won by a nose with At The Seaside and Major Emblem in third and fourth.[8] Fujioka commented "Her conformation tells us that she should suit longer distances so I have high hopes for her to do well in the remaining two legs of the Fillies’ Triple Crown".[9]
