Kyoto 1600m: Course Aptitude
Success in the 2025 Mile CS requires a specific set of skills tailored to the unique layout of the Kyoto 1600m outer course.
1. Mid-Race Lull and Relaxation
The course’s mid-section often sees a pace lull. A horse’s ability to conserve energy and relax during this phase is critical for a strong finish.
2. Downhill Acceleration & Flat Straight
A downhill section into a long, flat 404m straight demands rapid, explosive acceleration (“instantaneous power”) over sustained stamina.
Required Aptitudes:
- Calmness: Ability to settle during a moderate mid-race pace.
- Acceleration: Capacity to build speed from the downhill section.
- Explosive Power: Ability to overtake rivals quickly on the flat straight.
