About
Big Beluga, a 5yo b horse from Japan trained by Mitsunori Makiura, is by Harbinger out of Ichiokuno Hoshi. So far the horse has recorded two victories, the most important being the $15,200,000 Allowance Race at Sapporo on 23 August 2025, where it collected the prize money. It has proved to be a lucrative runner for bettors; backing Big Beluga for its whole career would have generated a 2 % return on investment.
