Mejiro Dober Factoids (1/2)
>In real life, all of Dober’s grade victories were in mare-limited races. So it was rumoured that she did not like colts.
>She also got scared by her little brother/cousin Mejiro Bright once in the 1998 Takarazuka Kinen.
>Her initial reaction toward the trainer is cold and harsh till the trainer bonds with her.
>This is based on historical facts. Dober’s first groom, Ryukichi Horiguchi, was about to retire when Dober was handed to him. He treated Dober very well and nicknamed her “Bell-chan”. Dober trusted and showed a lot of intimacy to Horiguchi. However, Horiguchi collapsed in January 1997, and died on February 19th.
>Dober was handed to new groom Ryuichi Anse. This sudden groom switch made Dober very nervous and was in a state of distrust. Because of this, she refused to listen to any command and went berserk in the 1997 Tulip-Sho, thus losing the race. Anse spent a lot of time improving this relationship.
>In her story, we are basically in the position of Anse.
>Mejiro Dober had a hard start to life.
>Her mum, Mejiro Beauty, had suddenly stopped foaling naturally after a miscarriage she had while carrying a Sunday Silence foal so she mated with Mejiro Ryan with the help of fertility drugs to birth Mejiro Dober.
>After Dober was weaned, she then broke her right hind leg and while the operation was successful, she had to stay tied up in her stable to heal even though she wanted to play. This may have contributed to the “living in seclusion” part of her personality.
>Despite all this, she still managed to become a racehorse.
