"Gift from the Horses" by Tokyo TV - Clip featuring MMSC

In December, the MMSC was thrilled to be a part of a documentary titled "Gift from the Horses", produced by Tokyo TV, which featured the second careers of Thoroughbred racehorses after their time on the track. Japanese actor Kanata Hongo (Returner, Fullmetal Alchemist) starred, and we thoroughly enjoyed demonstrating to him and the full crew how we transition OTTBs into a new career!
In this clip, adoptable OTTB Torrontes teaches Mr. Hongo how to use our obstacle course, and War of Ideas delights the crew with his jumping skill.
Watch the entire "Gift from the Horses" documentary (mostly in Japanese) here: • Video
Special thanks to Tokyo TV and especially Production Manager Aki Ikeno for coming to Kentucky and highlighting Thoroughbred aftercare!
Inflatable jumps provided by Air-ESS Equine Products.

I swear Kanata Hongo must have a portrait hidden in his basement that's aging instead of him. Such a talented actor, fangirling over him for 14 years and he hasn't aged a day since 10 years ago. I now look older than him :(

[@zeuna]

I know what you mean, he's 30yo and hasn't changed one bit

[@flaxenRdn]

And now watching him in Yuyu Hakusho live action, he still look the same 😅

I love Kanata's Hiei. The older he gets, the more beautiful and powerful he becomes, I think.

大好きな番組です。動物好きの本郷奏多さん、馬たちも本郷さんが大好きなのですね、とても気持ちよさそうにブラッシングしてもらっていました。それにしてもジェントルマンの本郷さん、馬がとてもお似合いです。馬上のお姿をぜひ拝見したいです。
