Overview

Kineusu Bokujo (杵臼牧場) is a Japanese horse stud farm located in the Kineusu district of Urakawa-cho, Urakawa-gun, Hokkaido. It is a private, family-run breeding operation whose stated goal is to raise horses that are strong in both body and mind, with the ambition that every foal it produces will eventually win a race. The farm is led by representative Shinichi Kamata (鎌田信一), and its official information is published through the Pacalla platform, a service that connects racehorse fans with breeding farms. The farm's core activity is breeding and mid-term rearing (生産と中期育成) of Thoroughbred racehorses. Its best-known produce includes T.M. Opera O (テイエムオペラオー), one of the most celebrated racehorses in Japanese racing history, and Stella Wind (ステラウインド). The farm also produced Black Hole (ブラックホール), whose victory in the Sapporo Nisai Stakes in 2019 gave the farm its first graded-stakes win in 19 years, a result the farm highlighted with pride. Kineusu Bokujo maintains a public presence through its Pacalla farm page, where it posts news and updates, and it participates in the "Mokushi de Tsunagu Project" (もくしでつなぐプロジェクト), an initiative that uses wood shavings (mokushi) to connect farms, horses, and fans. The farm welcomes visitors in principle, though tours may be unavailable depending on the season, and it asks interested parties to contact it in advance. As a small private breeding farm, it does not disclose financial details or a founding year in the available sources.
