Talento Oshima Mai has been chosen as the new regular member for Fuji TV's horse racing program "Minna no KEIBA" (every Sunday @ 3:00 pm). This will be her first regular appearance in a horse racing program. Oshima commented, "Since I'm new to horse racing, I want to see many races, and learn a lot of things. First, I want to learn the names and the colors of the fur of the horses. I love the paddock because I can see the physical beauty of the horses. If I fall in love with a horse in the paddock, I would bet on the one."

At the end of last year, Oshima visited "Northern Farm Shigaraki" to collect data about two horses "Orfevre" and "Gentildonna". Though she is a beginner to�horse�racing, she did not hesitate but and piled on questions to the chief of the ranch. At the ranch, she also spent time with the horses.

With Oshima joining the program, it will also go through some revisions including its set, content, and more, so that beginners would be able to follow along. The theme song will also be changed to a new song that is made by Komuro Tetsuya.

Oshima's first appearance on the program will be on January 6th, the first episode for 2013.
