Rice Shower (in Japanese: ライスシャワー, March 5, 1989 − June 4, 1995) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse who won the multiple Group 1 titles.
History
His name refers to the tradition of throwing rice at weddings for good luck.[3]
Rice Shower's first race was on September 21, 1991, when he won the 1991 Fuyo Stakes at Nakayama Racecourse.[2]
On November 8, 1992, Rice Shower captured the first major win of his career by winning the 1992 Kikuka-shō, defeating the favored Mihono Bourbon in the process. This was the horse's only win of 1992, though he came in second at the 1992 Tokyo Yūshun.[2]
Rice Shower had a strong 1993 season. He captured the Nikkei Sho on March 21, then followed it up by winning the April 23rd, Tenno Sho, which are both Group 1 titles,[2] dashing hopes for Mejiro McQueen to win the race three times in a row.[2]
He was winless in 1994, but in 1995, he captured the Tenno Sho (Spring) for a second time on April 23.
Rice Shower died on June 4, 1995. He fell during a race at the 1995 Takarazuka Kinen and was euthanized. He was 6 years old at the time.
