	=== ~~Subheader~~ ===		=== Two-year-old season (1987) ===

			Sakura Chiyono O made his debut on August 8th, in a 1,000-meter turf race on Hakodate Racecourse. As the overwhelming, he won the race by three and a half lengths. Though he had to miss out on the Hakodate Sansai Stakes, he was entered into the open-class Fuyo Tokubetsu instead on October 3rd, where he won once again by two lengths.<ref>https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/サクラチヨノオー#cite_note-優駿1988-5-130-11</ref>

	=~~== Subheader ===~~		On October 31st, he then ran in the open-class Icho Tokubetsu, where he lost for the first time and placed 2nd. He then challenged his first G1 race, the Asahi Hai Sansai Stakes<ref group="Note">Renamed the Asahi Hai Futurity Stakes in 2001.</ref> on December 20th. Though the race was meant to take place earlier that month, it was delayed due to snowfall.

			Sakura Chiyono O ran within the pack during the race. At the straight, he gradually took the lead, and won the race. This earned him his first graded and G1 victory, alongside sharing a father-son victory in the race, as his sire Maruzensky won it in 1976. Despite his G1 victory as a two year old, he lost the vote for JRA Award for Best Two-Year-Old Colt to the Hanshin Sansai Stakes<ref group="Note">Became a filly-exclusive race in 1991, and was renamed to the Hanshin Juvenile Fillies in 2001.</ref> winner [[IRL:Soccer Boy\|Soccer Boy]].
			=== Three-year-old season (1988) ===

	~~===Retirement===~~		Sakura Chiyono O's first race of the year was the Kyodo News Hai (G3), though he was unable to catch up to the other horses, and placed 4th. Later, on March 6th, he then entered the Yayoi Sho (G2), where he won by two lengths. With this victory, he was granted priority entry to the Satsuki Sho on April 17th. While he briefly took the lead, [[IRL:Yaeno Muteki\|Yaeno Muteki]] had caught up to him, leaving Sakura Chiyono O in 3rd place.

			Despite the loss, on May 29th, he competed in the Japanese Derby. Sakura Chiyono O ran in 5th place throughout the race. At the final corner, he accelerated from the outside and began to take the lead. While Yaeno Muteki alongside [[IRL:Mejiro Ardan\|Mejiro Ardan]] were charging from behind, he held them off and won the race, attaining his second and final G1 victory.

			However, due to developing tendonitis on his right front leg, he was unable to continue racing throughout the rest of the year.<ref>[https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E3%82%B5%E3%82%AF%E3%83%A9%E3%83%81%E3%83%A8%E3%83%8E%E3%82%AA%E3%83%BC#cite_note-%E5%84%AA%E9%A7%BF2002-6-63-43 https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/]https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/サクラチヨノオー#cite_note-優駿2002-6-63-43</ref>
