Symboli Rudolf (Japanese : シンボリルドルフ, March 13, 1981 - October 4, 2011)[1][2] was a Japanese thoroughbred racehorse who won the Japanese Triple Crown, sired by Partholon [ja], a son of Milesian, out of Sweet Luna, a daughter of Speed Symboli [ja]. Symboli Rudolf was inducted into the Japan Racing Association Hall of Fame in 1987.[3] Due to his racing career and his namesake, Rudolf I, the horse was dubbed "Kōtei (皇帝)", or emperor.[4][5]
Racing career
Symboli Rudolf became the first undefeated Triple Crown (not losing a single race until winning Kikuka Sho, later succeeded by Deep Impact in 2005 and Contrail in 2020) as well as the first Triple Crown winner since the introduction of Racing Grades in Japan.
Symboli Rudolf ultimately went on to win a total of 7 Grade I races in his career.[2]

As a stallion, Symboli Rudolf sired numerous grade winners.[8] The horse's most successful progeny was by far Tokai Teio, who won 4 GI races, including the Tokyo Yushun in 1991 and the Arima Kinen in 1993.[9] Other notable progenies include Ayrton Symboli [ja], who won the Stayers Stakes in 1992 and 1993, and Tsurumaru Tsuyoshi [ja], who won the Kyoto Daishoten and Asahi Challenge Cup in 1999.[10][11]
Symboli Rudolf passed away on October 4, 2011 at the Symboli Farm in Narita, Chiba.[1][2]

In popular culture
A sake brand, Nanakanba (七冠馬), is sold by Hikami Sake Brewery in honor of the horse. The Tamura family, who owns the brewery, is related to the Wada family, who owned the Symboli Ranch.[4]
An anthomorphized version of the horse appears in Uma Musume Pretty Derby.[17][18]
