==Background== Shinzan was a bay horse bred by Yoshimatsu Matsuhashi, and was foaled in Urakawa, Hokkaido on April 2, 1961. He was sired by Irish Derby winner Hindostan. His dam, Hayanobori, was a great-granddaughter of the Irish mare Beautiful Dreamer who was imported to Japan in the 1930s and became extremely influential; her other descendants included the Japanese classic winners Kazuyoshi, Jitsu Homare, Hakuryo and Meiji Hikari.
