FUKUYAMA RACECOURSE


This racecourse formerly only ran races with Anglo-Arabian horses, turning out numerous excellent Anglo-Arabian racehorses. However, since 2005, it has introduced thoroughbreds and welcomed a new era. It is convenient even for visitors from faraway, as the Nozomi Superexpress Bullet Train (Shinkansen) stops at Fukuyama Station.
