Haiseiko (ハイセイコー, Haiseikō) (March 6, 1970 - May 4, 2000) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse.

Racing career

In 1972, at age two, Haiseiko began racing at the Oi Racecourse for the Japanese National Association of Racing. He was undefeated in six starts at Oi Racecourse.

At age three, Haiseiko was traded to the Japan Racing Association. He won the Satsuki Sho, the first of the Japanese Classic Races but then finished third Take Hope in the Tokyo Yushun and second to the same horse in the Kikuka Sho.

At age four, Haiseiko won the Takarazuka Kinen.

Stud career

Retired to stud, Haiseiko sired the Tokyo Yushun winner Katsurano Haiseiko, the Satsuki Sho winner Haku Taisei, the Tokyo Derby winner King Haiseiko and Outrun Seiko. He was the Leading Sire in NAR for 1990.

Honors

Haiseiko was inducted in the Japan Racing Association Hall of Fame in 1984.

The last NAR race Haiseiko ran and won, the Seiun Sho, was renamed the Haiseiko Kinen [ja] in honor of the horse in 2001 after he died. Three statues of Haiseiko have been erected as well; with one each at Oi Racecourse, Nakayama Racecourse, and at the Michi no Eki Thoroughbred Road Niikappu [ja].
