TENTIAL Targets Athlete Well-being with Jockey Rusei Sakai

TENTIAL, a pioneering company based in Shinagawa, Tokyo, which specializes in health and conditioning products, has announced an exciting partnership with the esteemed JRA jockey, Rusei Sakai. Known for his prowess on the racetrack, Sakai is on a quest to achieve significant milestones in his career, including reaching a total of 600 wins in the JRA by September 2025, paving the way for a bright future in the sport.

TENTIAL's mission revolves around creating a society focused on health and well-being. With a commitment to enhancing daily life, the company provides state-of-the-art conditioning solutions aimed at optimizing the performance of athletes and ordinary individuals alike.

With an extensive background, Sakai made his JRA debut in 2016 and has since gained invaluable international experience, including a long-term stint in Australia starting in 2017. He has achieved victories not only in Japan but also in prestigious races in Dubai, Hong Kong, and recently claimed his first overseas G1 victory at the Saudi Cup in March 2025. His accomplishments include winning the prestigious Shuka-sho in 2022, and not to mention being a consistent challenger on both domestic and international stages.

For jockeys like Sakai, maintaining peak performance alongside weight management poses unique challenges. Frequent international travel and the associated jet lag can significantly impact an athlete’s physical condition and performance on race day. This partnership with TENTIAL aims to address these specific conditioning issues, offering tailored support for sleep, recovery during travels, and nutritional guidance.

This partnership extends beyond merely providing products; it involves comprehensive conditioning support as Sakai prepares for future races. The contract includes access to TENTIAL’s innovative products such as the recovery wear 'BAKUNE' series and supportive bedding products. More importantly, the conditioning support spans three critical aspects – sleep, nutrition, and breathing – ensuring Sakai is fully equipped for the demands of his upcoming competitions, including challenging events like the prestigious Breeders' Cup Classic in Del Mar, USA, in November 2025.

In his statement, Sakai expressed gratitude towards TENTIAL for recognizing jockeys as serious athletes. He emphasized how varying time zones and the fatigue from long-distance travel were significant challenges he faced. He looks forward to utilizing TENTIAL's advice to refine his conditioning and performance.

This collaboration reflects TENTIAL’s broader commitment to supporting individuals who dare to pursue their potential. The company aims to continue fostering an environment where health and well-being take center stage, aspiring to transform societal attitudes towards conditioning and performance.

As TENTIAL seeks to pave the path towards a health-conscious society, Sakai's determination to maximize his potential aligns perfectly with their vision – reinforcing the importance of condition optimization in achieving success in the fast-paced world of competitive sports.
