TOKYO RACECOURSE TURF/2,000M/SUNNY/FIRM

Bracket one, post one, Oguri Cap!

Bracket six, post nine, Tamamo Cross!

The lone wolf back from Europe and Derby champion, number ten, Sirius Symboli!

The blazing fire inside has brought her to this stage.

Number five, Dynam Heroine!

This indomitable warrior is ready for battle!

Number four, Massive Viking!

She took second in the spring Tenno Sho. Will she get her revenge today?!

Number three, Long Live Free!

Ready to redeem herself from last year's loss, and she'll do it her way,

number twelve, Lord Royal!

She'll race ahead until she gets her crown!

Number thirteen, Top Shunbetsu!

The race begins!

There's only one thing I have to do...

And that's to run my heart out, leaving everyone in my dust!

They don't call her Lord Front Runner for noth--

Huh?!

Tamamo Cross?!

What?!

Tamamo Cross is currently in second place!

She's positioned herself towards the front!

Why's everyone so shocked?

Tamamo Cross is usually an end closer!

The hell's goin' on? I thought she was scared of the pack...

This is my style!

And it don't fit in any of your boxes!

Don't lose your cool, Oguri.

What you need to do hasn't changed.

Our racers approach the zelkova tree in between the third and fourth corner!

Oguri Cap is still in the mid-pack, waiting to make a move!

From the first time I saw you...

I knew you were different.

I'd never raced anyone like you before, so I didn't know how to explain it.

But one thing is clear.

Tamamo Cross,

you stand at the peak of the national races.

Which makes me all the more certain

if I can beat you, the real deal...

Become the best in Japan, Oguri Cap.

How'd you like to take on the world with me, Oguri Cap?!

I don't just think you can win.

I know you will.

It's time

for me to reach the peak!

Now, we've reached the 600-meter mark!

In the lead is Lord Royal!

Two lengths behind on the outside is Tamamo Cross!

'Bout time ya showed up...

Beast!

Oguri Cap!

Oguri Cap charges in from the outside!

Oguri Cap is now third from the front!

Her sights set on Lord Royal and Tamamo Cross, she makes for the lead!

Oguri!

Yes!

- All right! - You can do it!

Blast right past 'em!

Oguri Cap...

Once again, she roars in...

I expect nothing less.

Relentlessly pursuing the lead is Oguri Cap!

Don't count me out!

Three...

No...

More than four lengths behind me?

She's that far back, and it's still sendin' a chill down my spine.

The sound of the Beast in pursuit.

The homestretch.

I've been saving up my energy,

so my legs are more than ready for this part.

In fact, it's almost like

the race hasn't even started yet!

Oguri Cap! Look at her go!

She's now four lengths away!

- Will she be able to grasp victory?! - Oguri!

Come on!

Tama...

Oh my...

They both certainly have what it takes...

Indeed.

One of them,

perhaps even both...

400 meters to go!

Our racers have reached Tokyo Racecourse's infamous homestretch!

All right...

Here it comes!

Tokyo Racecourse's last 400 meters start on a steep hill.

The top is a full two meters higher than the bottom!

The racers already ran a grueling 1,600 meters

and now their hearts are being put into overdrive!

Just like that, ordinary racers are done for.

Well, good thing I'm no ordinary racer!

But the incline doesn't stop Tamamo Cross!

Uh-oh! Lord Royal's struggling to maintain her pace!

Nothin' can stop these legs!

Nothin' can stop me!

And just like that,

Tamamo Cross has taken the lead!

Yes!

If it's down to our final spurts,

the Beast and I are evenly matched.

Meaning it's just a matter of positioning.

Pace chasin' was the right move.

From here, I can react to her final spurt quickly.

I was also able to notice Lord Royal's strat pretty early on and slow down.

So even after runnin' in second, I saved enough, no...

more than enough energy to tackle the final stretch!

Now there's only one thing left to do!

Close this out and snatch the gold!

Oguri Cap?!

200 meters to go!

Oguri Cap approaches at breakneck speed!

It's a showdown between the ashen Umamusume!

Now watch... as I take the lead!

Oguri Cap picks up speed again!

Go!

Oguri!

She's closing the gap!

Three lengths, no, two lengths to go!

Can she catch up to Tamamo Cross?!

No!

She can't! She can't!

Tamamo Cross speeds up, maintaining her lead!

Tamamo Cross, I knew you were different!

Like I'd let ya get close!

All I gotta do is keep this lead, and...

My... my legs...

They're crampin' up...

There it is.

She sped up and cleared that last furlong in eleven seconds.

No way she can keep on like that after running in second place the entire race.

Only one length between Tamamo Cross and Oguri Cap!

Is Tamamo Cross done for?!

Tama!

Just a little more! Just a millimeter more!

Dammit! The finish line feels so far away!

I can't feel my legs...

My arms are numb...

Even my lungs feel like they're 'bout to burst!

Is this it? Have I reached my limit?

Is this... where my story ends?

I did it!

I'm a whole second faster than last week!

Ain't that somethin'! Good work, Tama!

I knew ya had it in ya, and I was right!
