Daiwa Major (Japanese: ダイワメジャー) is a retired Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse and active sire. A horse who excelled at distances of one to one and a quarter miles (1,600 to 2,000 m), he won the Satsuki Shō, the first leg of the Japanese Triple Crown in 2004. His greatest success, however, came later in his career when he won several of Japan's most important weight-for-age races including the Tennō Shō, the Yasuda Kinen and two runnings of the Mile Championship. He was twice named Japan's champion miler. Daiwa Major made a successful start to his stud career, siring a Group One winner in his first crop.
