If you ve spent a lot of time watching racing on the West Coast, you may have been surprised to see Akifumi Kato s name in the program at Turf Paradise in Phoenix, Ariz., last week. Could it be the same jockey who once dominated Playfair Race Course, taking four editions of the Playfair Mile?
Indeed, it is the same Akifumi Kato who made the winner s circles in the state of Washington familiar spaces in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. In fact, Kato turned 69 years old on Jan. 7, the same day he booted home his 2,034th career winner, She s a Lady Griz, earning him the unusual distinction of having ridden a winner a year for 50 years.
