At a high school in Shinhidaka Town, Hokkaido, where high school students are raising thoroughbreds, a male foal was born this month and is growing well. The high school expects to have one more foal early next month, which will be auctioned off when each is one year old.
A second-year student caring for the foal said, "The way they walk and stand up unsteadily is cute. I want him to grow strong as a racehorse"
