	=== Three-year-old season (1986) ===		=== Three-year-old season (1986) ===

			On January 26th, Mejiro Ramonu entered the Queen Cup (G3). However, due to her nervous behavior before the race, she did not run well, and placed 4th.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mejiro_Ramonu#cite_note-11</ref> However, on March 16th, she won the Hochi Hai Yonsai Himba Tokubetsu (G2),<ref group="Note">Renamed to the Fillies Revue in 2001.</ref> which marked her first graded victory. With this, she was set to compete in the Oka Sho on April 6th. She raced within the back of the pack, and despite being blocked by another horse, Mejiro Ramonu fought hard in the stretch and won the race by a neck. Not only was this her first G1 victory, this was the first leg of the Triple Tiara

	=~~==Retirement===~~		Because of concerns that Mejiro Ramonu would struggle in the Japanese Oaks, she was entered into the Sanspo Sho Yonsai Himba Stakes (G2) on April 27th.<ref group="Note">Renamed to the Flora Stakes in 2001.</ref><ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mejiro_Ramonu#cite_note-14</ref> However, despite the concerns, Mejiro Ramonu won the race with ease, and she was entered into the Japanese Oaks on May 18th. She suffered a late start, so she was forced to run from the very behind. In spite of this, she gradually began to accelerate in the stretch and take the lead, and won the race by two and a half lengths. With this second G1 victory and the claim of the Tiara's second leg, she was sent to take a break at Mejiro Farm in the summer.

			During the break, she continued her training in August at Hakodate Racecourse. However, due to heat issues, she was sent back to Miho, where she had to go through bloodletting.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mejiro_Ramonu#cite_note-:2-5</ref> She also showed lameness while training at the time.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mejiro_Ramonu#cite_note-:3-15</ref> Despite this, she competed in the Rose Stakes (G2) on October 12th. Though she struggled at the stretch, she held onto her momentum and won the race in a close finish.

			Mejiro Ramonu competed in the Queen Elizabeth II Cup on November 2nd, the final leg of the Triple Tiara. She began to take the lead at the third corner, and she held onto her position as other horses surged behind her. Winning by a neck, not only did she attain her third and final G1 victory, she also became the first mare in history to win the Triple Tiara in Japan.

			As she was set to retire, her final race was the Arima Kinen on December 21st. Despite fighting hard, she lost and placed 9th, the lowest in her career. However, for her victories, she received the JRA Award for Best Three-Year-Old Filly. On February 8th, 1987, a retirement ceremony was held for her, and she was inducted into the JRA Hall of Fame that year.

			== Retirement ==

			Mejiro Ramonu retired to become a broodmare at Mejiro Stud. While her foals did not win major races, her great-grandchildren have won G1 races. In 2008, her great-grandson Field Rouge won the Kashiwa Kinen (Jpn1). In 2019, her great-grandson Glory Vase won the Hong Kong Vase, a foreign G1 race.

			On September 22nd, 2005, Mejiro Ramonu passed away due to old age at 22 years old. Her grave is currently at Lake Villa Farm.<ref>https://uma-furusato.com/search_horse/0000158372.html</ref>
