This season so far, 5 Shikoku Kens have chased the lure into the AKC Fast CAT rankings, and right now Byaku Tora Sohaku Sou sits at the front of the pack — 26.55 mph, 100 yards in 7.70 seconds, out in front of the field. The top 5 are averaging 23.7 mph, chasing last year's 27.30 mph best, and with the season running through 2027, these standings can still shift.
