Description

[Machine Translation] Having lived in the professional world for a long time, the question of when, where, and how to retire has always been on my mind for the past two or three years. (omission) In fact, 23 jockeys who have supported the world of horse racing have left the turf in 2012 alone. This is the largest number in the past 15 years, and the number of jockeys has plummeted from 252 in 1982 to nearly half that number today. Why is it that one after another, jockey after jockey is quitting the sport, even though they have passed the rigorous examinations and finally become the jockeys of their dreams? ( from the introduction ) The Mile Championship in the fall of 2012. In the center of the winner's circle, where the winning jockey's interview was held after the race, there was a smile on his face for the first time in a long time. Yutaka-san (jockey Yutaka Take) had won a G1 race for the first time in about two years. I had already gone home, so I watched the interview on TV, but I felt very sad. I was already at home, so I watched the interview on TV, but I felt very sad. (Shinji Fujita, winner of the Derby, Takarazuka Kinen, Arima Kinen, and many other G1 races, reveals what he wants to tell you.

騎手の一分 競馬界の真実 (講談社現代新書) / 藤田伸二/著

プロの世界で長く生きてきたのだから、いつ、どこで、どういう形で引退しようかという「引き際」は、この2~3年、常に頭の片隅にあった。(中略) これまで競馬界を支えてきたジョッキーたちが、実は2012年だけで23人もターフを去っている。これは過去15年でもっとも多い数字だという。1982年には252人いた騎手が、いまや半分近くにまで激減している。厳しい試験をくぐり抜けて、ようやく憧れの騎手になったはずなのに、なぜ、次から次へとこうもみんな、騎手を辞めてしまうのか。(序章より) 2012年秋のマイルチャンピオンシップ。レースの後、勝利騎手インタビューが行われたウイナーズサークルの中央には、久しぶりの笑顔があった。ユタカさん(武豊騎手)が、約2年ぶりにG1を勝ったんだ。「お久しぶりです」俺はもう家に帰っていたから、そのインタビューはテレビで見たんだけど、何だかとてもさびしく感じた。あの武豊をこんな状態にしたのは誰なのか――。(第4章より) ダービー、宝塚記念、有馬記念など、数々のG1を制してきた藤田伸二が明かす、「伝えておきたいこと」。
