There were reports of an 8.9 magnitude earthquake and a tsunami in Japan. Obviously the priority is to save lives, bury the dead, remain safe during aftershocks, and repair the damage. If, when we have an opportunity to get a better handle on the situation, there's any information about Japanese racetracks or horse farms that anybody hears about, please pass it on. It sounds as if the Miyagi prefecture took a bit hit from the wave. From my brief efforts to google, there is not a racetrack there. Tokyo does have one, and I heard 4 million are without power there.
I believe a lot of stud farms are in Hokkaido. It's an island on the northeastern point of Japan. I haven't heard whether there is damage there, but they did receive a tsunami warning.
