Shinjuku Derby Go-Round

Always wanted to ride a hot-blooded racehorse at full speed? Well now you can – virtually. Gearing up for the 82nd Japan Derby, to be run at Fuchu's Tokyo Racecourse on May 31, the JRA is putting on this promotional bash where you can enter the 'keiba simulator' and charge around on the computer-generated streets of Shinjuku like a champion jockey. On May 31 from 3pm, the main event will be shown on a huge screen next to Takashimaya's ground floor exit.
