Uma Musume: Become a Legendary Trainer

Chapter 324 Chrysanthemum Appreciation (10): All gates are open, come on!

After Maruzenski apologized, Kitahara fell silent again, and Maruzenski became even more flustered.

But before she could say anything else, Kitahara suddenly chuckled.

"This... feels pretty good." Kitahara whispered.

Maruzenski was startled, "What... pretty good?"

"Oguruma is in good shape now."

Kitahara raised his voice a little, and the corners of his mouth curled up even higher, "Because she looks like this, it reminds me of the earliest times when she was in Kasamatsu, she was also like this.

“Wake up, run, breakfast, run, lunch, run, dinner, run, sleep.

“It’s like this every day, before I see her and after I see her.

“That look is just like the dull look I have now, where I don’t really care about anything except eating and running every day.

"Whatever you ask her or say to her, if it's something you're not familiar with, she'll just say 'oh' or 'ah'.

“I think, looking like this, she might actually win.

"It's just that I can't imagine how I will win."

Maruzenski was even more stunned, "You...you yourself are not sure whether Oguruma can win?"

"To be precise... is this the most uncertain competition in history?"

Kitahara nodded, "Originally, this unsure competition was held during the Emperor's Autumn Viewing Ceremony.

“I didn’t expect to break the record so quickly.”

"Then..." Maruzenski hesitated, "Doesn't that mean that the running tactics you arranged for Xiaokuimao before, she may not be able to run out?"

"Maybe, but I believe that her daze now is different from that in Kasamatsu's time."

Beiyuan's face suddenly showed trust, "She just looks a little naive, but actually, she is very smart.

“She will never forget everything she has worked so hard for, every step she has taken.

"So now I need to be a little dumber."

"Have you become a little dumber?" Maruzenski suddenly found this statement a little funny.

"Well, maybe there are too many things to consider, and I forgot that as a trainer, I have to do my best to make all the preparations I can before the race. The rest is up to the horse ladies."

Kitahara said softly: “At this moment, I just need to be simple, not think too much, appreciate everything in the next game, and accept everything.

"so……"

He paused, "So this may be a little presumptuous, Maruzen, can you accompany me to watch this chrysanthemum appreciation?"

"……what."

Suddenly his brain froze for a moment, and he realized that the person next to him was probably just saying that casually. After a moment of feeling relieved and regretful, Maruzenski smiled.

"it is good."

All the horse girls entered the gate.

The steady voice of commentary echoed over the Kyoto stadium.

"All gates are open, come on.

“Kyoto, G1, Chrysanthemum Appreciation 3000m.

“Now… Start!

“Little Kurimao had a good start, a good exit and a great start.

“However, the one who took the lead was Super Bay. Super Bay chose the lead-release tactic today. The lead-release in several actual combats has cultivated her excellent adaptability. She rushed to the front in one breath.

“The starting point of the chrysanthemum viewing is located in the middle of a 4.5-meter steep slope. The early position is quite critical, and Super Bay has seized the opportunity.

“Sort out the location.

“Super Cove is at number one.

"Following closely is Malachite, a horse girl who is also good at leading and is currently trying to close the gap with Super Cove. "After that is Flashing Silver, and fourth is Synchronized Beat.

“There are not many members in the leading team, so the competition is not fierce.

“The advance troops are crowded.

“The fourth most popular player, Dido Shooter, and the third most popular player, Mejiro Aldan, are both in this position, and the two sides are constantly fighting for position.

"Then there's Spaceship, Reena, Molivis, Brilliant Diamond, My Breeze, and Gakuen Rumble.

“There were eight runners vying for the lead, all aiming for the inside lane.

"Xiao Li Mao is in the bad position. It seems that Xiao Li Mao chose the bad position to start today.

“Then… the competition among the leading teams intensified, and the uphill climb was about to end, the 208-meter uphill climb before the third turn was about to end.

“The Chrysanthemum Appreciation Race goes around the course for one and a half weeks, with a total of six turns. The advantage of the inner lane is too obvious, and the female racehorses don’t want to go around the big circle, so the competition is fierce.

“After finishing the uphill, the next step is a straight line of about 200 meters. This is the complexity of Kyoto Chrysanthemum Viewing. The curve is followed by a straight road, and after the straight road there is another curve. Without excellent running tactics and flexible switching, you will be at a disadvantage in this stage.

“My Breeze and Spaceship players made mistakes in handling the race, and both players lost their inside lane advantage and were placed very far outside.

“As a result of the competition for the leading position, Dido Shooter and Mejiro Altan took it. The two horse girls followed closely to the inner lane, one in front and one behind. This will save them a lot of energy.

“Pay attention to popularity.

"Oguruma's position is in the inner lane of the bad team, which is a mixed blessing.

“The inner lane will undoubtedly save energy, but it will cause congestion before and after the sprint to the finish line.

“I hope that Oguruma has thought of a solution.

"downhill.

“How to calmly complete the first downhill is a key to the competition.

“It’s very refreshing to rush down in one breath, but it takes a lot of energy to restore the cruising rhythm.

“After going downhill, you will be close to the grandstands. The audience will cheer very enthusiastically, so horse girls should be aware of their anxiety.

“It’s slowed down. All the horse girls have slowed down significantly, and the race has returned to the normal pace of the Chrysanthemum Appreciation.

“After going around the first circle of trees, the horse girls arrived in front of the stands of more than 160,000 people, which erupted in huge cheers.

“The line was very long, and the positions of the horse girls in the front and back were far apart.

“The leader is still Super Cove.

“The opening section is uphill, with curves, straights, curves, and we will soon pass the 1000-meter mark.

"pass.

“Time is…

“58.

"It was very fast, very fast, close to 17 meters per second, it can be described as a runaway, it can be described as a runaway.

"Then there is still a straight road. The straight road after the fourth turn of the Kyoto Circuit is very long. I hope the horse racing ladies will take this opportunity to calmly judge the next move while they still have enough energy...

"Ah, the players at the back of the division plate are getting anxious, and Kai is also affected and is getting anxious.

“The two horse girls are speeding up at this moment. It is not a calm choice for them to speed up at this moment. I hope they can regain their composure as soon as possible.

"Next is the long straight. Do you have any comments?"

After a long, steady and soothing explanation, the middle-aged man took advantage of the slower pace of the game and asked quickly.

In previous interviews, whether it was Representative Qianming, Reference Point, Oath or Bailing, they all had a humble attitude and were not in a hurry to answer.

Hearing the question at this moment, the four horse racing girls spoke almost in unison while staring at the screen.

"So far, it's a pretty perfect lead."
