Common card · No. 316001

Inari One (Japanese: イナリワン, Hepburn: Inari Wan; 7 May 1984 – 7 February 2016) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. Initially a successful racer running local-level races on dirt courses, he was later entered into national level turf races as a five year old. He won major grade 1 races, including the 1989 Spring Tenno Sho, Takarazuka Kinen, and Arima Kinen. He was voted both Japanese Horse of the Year and Best Older Male Horse in 1989 for his successes. Inari One was part of the "Heisei Big Three," along with Oguri Cap and Super Creek, who helped to renew interest in horse racing in Japan in the late 1980s.
