JAPAN_WORLD_CUP
Cinema Keiba/JAPAN WORLD CUP is a fictional horse race [[3D]] CG video series promoted/held by The [[Japan Racing Association]] since 2010. The videos were created by "Mashima Riichirou":[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=57284] and "Jinni`s Animation Studio":[https://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=creator&creatorid=22091].

The race itself is presented as a 1600m G1 race on turf held in Tokyo Racecourse. It features a colorful cast of horses and non-horses racing each other in a extremely chaotic fashion. The result of the race is random with all outcomes being recorded in the DVD. This means that even perennial underdog Haribote Elegy has a chance to win.
