			On March 15th, Nishino Flower's win streak ended when she placed 2nd at the Tulip Sho and lost to Adorable. After the Tulip Sho however, her jockey Masao Sato felt responsibility for his defeat and lost confidence in riding her, so Hiroshi Kawachi became her permanent jockey<ref>Yushun Magazine 1998</ref>.
