The horses used in the races are often either purebred or crosses of Percheron, Breton, and Belgian breeds.As the popularity of the races has waned in recent years, regular ban'ei races are only held at the Obihiro Racecourse. The Obihiro racecourse nearly closed in 2006 before Softbank, a Japanese mobile phone company, provided funds for the races to continue. Odds Park Hai was established in 2007 as an expression of gratitude. Other companies, such as Rakuten and Sapporo Breweries have added their sponsorship and several support schemes have been initiated, including a race-sponsoring scheme for individuals.
