Asian Winds

Asian Winds (Japanese: エイジアンウインズ, Hepburn: Eijian Uinzu; 28 March 2004 – 14 March 2025) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare. She competed from 2006 to 2008, recording six wins in eleven starts, including the Hanshin Himba Stakes and the Victoria Mile. Asian Winds was a bay mare bred in Japan by Shadai Farm. She was sired by Fuji Kiseki, a son of Sunday Silence. Her dam, Sakurasaku II, was sired by Danehill. She was purchased by Yosimi Ota and trained by Hideaki Fujiwara. During her career, she was ridden by Christophe Lemaire, Ryota Sameshima, and Shinji Fujita. Asian Winds debuted in December 2006 on the dirt track at Hanshin Racecourse, finishing third. She won her next two starts on the dirt in December 2006 and January 2007, followed by another dirt victory in March 2007. In late 2007, she transitioned to turf racing.
