Narita Top Road

Common card · No. 321399

Narita Top Road (Japanese: ナリタトップロード, Hepburn: Narita Toppu Rōdo; April 4, 1996 - November 7, 2005) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse and sire that competed from 1998 to 2002. Considered one of the top three of his generation due to the intense 1999 Classic showdowns alongside T. M. Opera O and Admire Vega, in which he finished on podiums in all three legs. He was the winner of the Kikuka Shō in 1999. He never won another G1 race after the Kikuka Sho. Still, he frequently finished on podiums or in the top five for the rest of his career. Due to his relentless effort and long-standing tenure, Narita Top Road was described as a "supporting lead that always chased his rivals" by the fans and racing associations alike.
