Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 321 Chrysanthemum Appreciation (7): Stop making noise, you guys!

While the shooter Didu was publicly challenging Oguruta, on the other side, in the guest interview room.

"It seems that the goal of today's Chrysanthemum Contest contestants is to defeat Oguruma."

Just like the Emperor's autumn appreciation, the host of this guest segment is still a woman, but the commentator is a middle-aged man.

Sitting opposite the host and the commentator are more guests than the emperor enjoying the autumn.

Chiaki represents Japan's Teresa Academy, the United States's Oath, France's Bering, and the United Kingdom's Reference Point.

The host was obviously excited, perhaps because it was the first time he interacted with so many world-class top horse racing girls.

“Do you have any guesses or opinions about this situation and the possible outcome of the race?” Her eyes were expectant, wandering between the four horse girls.

"Well...how should I put it..."

As soon as Qian Ming spoke, the host immediately looked over with a lively look, but she quickly spread her hands and said, "I feel it's normal.

“The strong of every generation will face such targeting.

“This should be obvious.

"As for the upcoming chrysanthemum viewing... I don't know either."

The host's expression froze, "Qian, Qianming... this... I don't know..."

At this time, the uncle commentator quickly took over the topic.

"Haha, she is indeed a horse girl who is known for her ability to go beyond common sense. Her views are also unique."

In a familiar tone, he smiled and nodded at Representative Qianming, "Generally speaking, Yodo-no-Saka in the Kyoto competition venue is very difficult for any player.

"In all previous Chrysanthemum Appreciation competitions, contestants would basically choose to slow down at this position, going up and down slowly.

"Qianming, you are completely different. The second time you went uphill, you actually went against common sense and sprinted uphill and downhill.

“It totally scared the entire audience, haha, of course, I was scared too.

“As a result, it was because of this abnormal running strategy that you won the historic Triple Crown Final and became the Triple Crown Champion.

"Then, it's not hard to understand why you find this chrysanthemum viewing unpredictable."

"Were you frightened back then? I can't tell at all... I mean I can't hear it."

Following the uncle's explanation, Representative Qian Ming laughed, "But it's not impossible.

"After all, the commentary about the ground bouncing up still feels weird to me."

"That's why I said I was scared. I just said it without thinking, haha."

Although he spoke without thinking, his thoughts in the commentary were obviously much clearer than those of the host. After asking Representative Qian Ming, he did not directly ask about Shi Yan and Bai Ling, but smiled gently, his eyes constantly wandering.

"Well, the Japanese Chrysanthemum Festival is comparable to the British classic Triple Crown finale, the St. Leger Stakes."

He smiled and looked at Reference Point, "Ms. Reference Point, as the champion of the St. Leger Stakes, perhaps you would have a unique perspective on this Chrysanthemum Appreciation?"

This commentator has considerable experience and is extremely knowledgeable about Uma Girls and various competitions. His level in this regard is even not inferior to that of many trainers, and his knowledge beyond professional training content may even exceed that of other trainers.

He knew very well that Representative Qian Ming's running style was quite capricious. She would often run the way she felt she should, and would not even listen to her trainer's instructions.

The American is more familiar with clay events, and the American track is much flatter than the Japanese track. If you insist on asking, you may embarrass him. The situation is similar for the French Bering. Although the French track has more grass like the Japanese track, the grass species is different, the ground is softer, and there are more heavy tracks.

Reference Point is a good candidate for inquiry precisely because of the St. Leger Stakes champion.

Japan's classic triple crown, the Satsuki Sho corresponds to the 2,000 Guineas, the Japan Derby corresponds to the Epsom Derby, and the Kikuka Sho corresponds to the St. Leger Stakes.

Even before the Victoria Cup was founded, the last match of the Japanese female triple crown was also the Kikuka Sho, which is similar to the St. Leger Stakes, which serves as both the final match of the triple crown and the female triple crown.

In view of this, the horse racing community privately refers to the Kikuka Sho as the "Japanese Seiji Trophy".

Several overseas horse racing girls are also aware of this.

This time, we have communicated with the respective college boards and student unions, all in an effort to confirm the current level of Japanese horse racing girls, as well as their training methods, ideas, and various competition systems.

In order to facilitate communication, the basic information must have been repeatedly learned and confirmed, and the relevant circumstances of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation and its relationship with the St. Leger Memorial are all understood.

Before agreeing to the interview, several college representatives had a brief conversation. When they heard the commentator asking about the reference point, they looked at each other and the latter quickly spoke with a smile.

"As for my opinion, it may not be suitable for this chrysanthemum viewing."

Reference Point said frankly: “It’s not just the venues, generations, and contestants that are different.

“Just from a race walking perspective, the St. Leger Memorial I participated in had only eight runners.

"The current St. Leger Memorial is not conducive to the subsequent participation in the Arc de Triomphe because it consumes a lot of physical strength. Even British horse racing girls like us are not willing to run."

I don’t know if it was British humor, but she started making fun of her own event.

The commentator understood the situation and knew what the reference point meant.

"So, the number of participants in this Chrysanthemum Festival is as high as 24, which is three times that of the St. Leger Memorial Festival. This may lead to a more intense competition?"

Reference Point thought for a moment, “Compare it to a race in the UK with a steep slope, like the Epsom Derby that I won.

“With this number of entries and the length of the track, there will inevitably be a fierce battle for position at the first corner at the start... and in the case of Kyoto, it should be the third corner.

“The longer the track, the more turns it generally has, and the disadvantage of the outside lane will become more obvious.

“If you don’t want to waste your energy, it’s crucial to grab the inner lane in the early stages.

"The other contested point, or the point of victory or defeat, is coincidentally the third bend. When passing through it for the second time, the inside lane will face a very complicated breakaway problem, while the outside lane players will face the danger of running out of energy.

"As for the rest, I don't have any accurate judgment, because I haven't run on this slope in Kyoto, so I can't be sure of the more detailed details."

"That's pretty detailed, Ms. Reference Point."

Almost taking over the job of hosting, the uncle smiled and nodded as he explained, “With your analysis, I think the audience should have a clearer understanding of this chrysanthemum appreciation.

“Then, as the contestants appear one by one, we will turn the topic to the corresponding analysis.

"Please ask the relevant staff to broadcast to the corresponding screen."

The interview room was also the broadcasting room, and as the commentary was arranged, audiences throughout Japan and even overseas who were watching the game saw the screen in front of them switch from the interview to the appearance circle.

In a VIP room of the Kyoto stadium, Lu Duo, who was originally paying attention to the TV screen, suddenly noticed a commotion behind him. With his arms folded, he looked like an elementary school student and veins suddenly bulged on his forehead.

"Master! Ah Chuan! All the way! Lady! And Zhuo Fu! Stop making noise!"
