JAPAN_WORLD_CUP

Cinema Keiba/JAPAN WORLD CUP is a fictional horse race 3D CG video series promoted/held by The Japan Racing Association since 2010. The videos were created by Mashima Riichirou and Jinni`s Animation Studio.

The race itself is presented as a 1600m G1 race on turf held in Tokyo Racecourse. It features a colorful cast of horses and non-horses racing each other in a extremely chaotic fashion. The result of the race is random with all outcomes being recorded in the DVD. This means that even perennial underdog Haribote Elegy has a chance to win.
