Shadai Farm Location: Hokkaido, Japan Principal: Teruya “Terry” Yoshida Website: shadaifarm.jp/english Background: The Yoshida family’s Shadai Farm, located on the island of Hokkaido in Japan, is one of the world’s most famous Thoroughbred operations and an important patron of Keeneland sales. At last year’s Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale, Shadai purchased the Storm Cat mare Zealous Cat for $1.3 million. Principal Teruya “Terry” Yoshida’s grandfather, Zenuske Yoshida, was one of the first Japanese to import Thoroughbreds from the U.S. on a major scale. He died in 1946, leaving the family business to his son Zenya Yoshida (Terry’s father) and his two brothers. Zenya Yoshida founded Shadai in 1955. Zenya Yoshida formerly owned a stud farm in the Tokyo region that the Japanese government purchased in 1958 as part of the land for Narita International Airport. Yoshida used the money to buy land on Hokkaido, which is now Japan’s principal center of Thoroughbred breeding, and developed Shadai Farm. 21

When Teruya Yoshida graduated in economics from Keoi University in 1969, his father sent him to Kentucky to manage Fontainebleau Farm, then the American branch of Shadai. He spent five years at Fontainebleau, during which time he spent $100,000 for Northern Taste, a son of Northern Dancer who won the 1974 Prix de la Foret at Longchamp. Northern Taste was the champion stallion in Japan for 11 consecutive years. Sunday Silence, winner of the 1989 Kentucky Derby (G1), Preakness (G1) and Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1), entered stud at Shadai in 1991 and became a perennial leading sire. He died in 2002 at the age of 16. Shadai Stallion Station currently stands about 28 stallions. They include 2002 Kentucky Derby (G1) winner War Emblem.
