'Success Backpa' (Korea, chestnut, 5 years old), ridden by jockey Jin Gyeom, claimed victory at the 25th YTN Cup (G3) held at Let's Run Park Seoul's 7th Gyeongju track on April 19.

'Bet Captain', starting from the inside gate, took the lead early and set the pace. 'Success Backpa', along with 'Speed Young' and 'Global Hit', followed closely to form the lead pack. Under the typically cautious pace of long-distance races, each horse focused on conserving stamina.

'Success Backpa' gradually took the lead at the fourth turn and gained further momentum in the straight stretch, widening the gap. 'Global Hit' and 'Speed Young' chased but were unable to overturn the flow. The final time was 2 minutes 8.9 seconds.

'Success Backpa' and jockey Jin Gyeom shared the joy of victory. Jin Gyeom said, "Until last year, we focused on avoiding the sand, but now the horse has shown steep growth, even staying with the lead despite hitting the sand."
