The jockey aboard Event Horizon was Kohei Matsuyama, one of Japan's leading riders who has achieved a total of 13,000 JRA career rides. He is also well known as a longtime Mononofu, and is recognized to the extent that the official social media accounts of Momoiro Clover Z's regular program Momoclo Chan have introduced him as a 'Mononofu jockey.'

Event Horizon is a full younger brother of the G1 winner Deirdre, and attracted attention as a blue blooded horse when it fetched a price of 308 million yen at the 2024 Select Sale.

With KANAKO also involved in a campaign for Funabashi Racecourse this year, high expectations are placed on the future success of both horse and rider.
