On the soft turf track!
Beneath the pouring rain and brooding dark clouds!
As the atmosphere grew increasingly oppressive and terrifying with the progression of the race, the figure at the very front was utterly replaced by a girl shimmering with silvery light yet exuding a profound, dark depth!
Sea the Stars, who had seized the advantage of the inner lane and was the first to surge past the front-running Uma Musume, as the only favorite aside from the Pegasus, was actually overtaken even before the first turn!
Ruthlessly surpassing that European mid-distance dominator, without a hint of hesitation—the monster was none other than Platinum, unfolding her jet-black wings and unleashing a full-throttle sprint!
"So… so fast?!"
"Wait, is she… really going all out? Not just using her momentum to create a comfortable lead in a front-run, widening the gap to avoid being caught?"
"She's truly going to burn everything in a desperate dash to the end, aiming for either a glorious victory or a crushing defeat? Leaving herself no retreat whatsoever?"
The chestnut-haired girl Sea the Stars, her starry, brilliant eyes utterly shrouded in shock.
After all, she, gifted by nature, had once faced off against the serious monster Undefeated Vanguard in training matches and had never been at a disadvantage.
In Sea the Stars's view, if she gave it her all, even if her opponent were a legendary Uma Musume, her chances of victory absolutely existed!!
Not to mention now… this was the apex of heavy ground, the most extreme, ultra-heavy ground—almost etched into the DNA of the bloodline she carried, her greatest strength!
But… why was this happening? Why was the running style of the opponent she faced completely different from any legendary Uma Musume in history?
Earlier, Sea the Stars had thought the Pegasus Platinum's goal was to unleash a domain-level momentum suppression from the start in the "swimming pool" of ultra-heavy ground, trading extreme trust in her stamina and excessive energy consumption for a greater lead.
As for domain skills?
Under Sea the Stars's incredibly sharp judgment, at most one or two domain skills that boosted momentum or suppressed opponents would be activated. Or, more likely, none at all, to reserve enough stamina for a second acceleration in the latter half.
But…
Just how many terrifying domain skills did that silver-white Pegasus unleash at once when she spread her jet-black wings and seemed to skim the ground in flight?
The unrestrained release of those domain skills, their quantity and intensity, completely proved…
—Platinum was seriously using a [Great Escape]!
--+--
"What incredible acceleration!!"
In the spectator stands, even a certain legendary Uma Musume from a distant land couldn't help but marvel.
Seabiscuit, a high official from the American racing authority and a former legend on dirt, had come to watch with great interest.
And now, as she gazed at that silver-white figure at the very front through the curtain of rain, she couldn't help but think of another large, red figure.
"Similar, so similar."
"Both absolutely domineering front-runners, neither allowing anyone to come close."
Platinum on turf, Secretariat on dirt!
And Seabiscuit knew full well that Platinum had risen to fame even faster than Secretariat.
So, to be precise, it was Secretariat who was more like Platinum.
And these two legends stood simultaneously at the pinnacle of their respective racing disciplines.
"And Sham, when facing Secretariat's front-running, tried every tactic. There were times she accelerated faster from the start, attempted to chase from behind, and even… initiated a [head-to-head duel] at the end."
"Sea the Stars, a monster whose talent surpasses even Sham's, arguably the closest to legendary status in the current era, the most likely to become the third legend after Platinum and Secretariat…"
"What choice will she make?"
Seabiscuit's gaze then shifted to behind the Silver Pegasus Maiden, settling on Sea the Stars.
Sea the Stars's forward-running style, especially her decision to overtake the front-running Uma Musume not long ago, had caught Seabiscuit's eye.
If it were a conventional forward-running Uma Musume, she might lack a final kick, like Mejiro McQueen.
In the public's understanding, only pace-setters and closers—those gathering in the mid-pack or further back—possess a final kick.
The more stamina-consuming forward-running style: only a very few Uma Musume with astonishing power and explosiveness can maintain this style while also boasting an excellent final kick.
But such forward-runners, once they encounter heavy ground, will basically immediately struggle; their proud final kick will be [sealed] by the harsh conditions.
After all, that style of running consumes stamina and tests both power and explosiveness. Those who can still unleash a final kick with a forward-running style on the outside or on heavy ground… are few and far between!
Therefore, many Uma Musume standing at the world's apex are masters of both forward-running and pace-setting styles, calling them the [King's Style]. They can freely choose and switch to the most suitable style based on conditions, gate position, or start condition.
But from another angle… if the forward-running style can be taken to the extreme, why bother training so hard in other styles?
Thus, this style of racing at the front, trying hard not to be thrown away by the leader, is excellent, has a high ceiling, but is not perfect. It extremely tests the Uma Musume's own ability.
And Sea the Stars? Forget forward-running; she was even faster than conventional front-runners!
On this most difficult, swimming pool-like ultra-heavy ground, switching from forward-running to a front-run, overtaking the original leader—that was absolute confidence born of strength, proof enough of her talent.
The choices now before Sea the Stars were, theoretically, those three different decisions.
Either break faster than Platinum from the start to prevent the gap from widening; or go head-to-head, fighting fair and square until one falls; or chase from behind, trusting in her timing and final kick.
Clearly, the first could be ruled out immediately. Sea the Stars had already conceded the lead, not choosing that highest-risk, never-before-tried reckless option.
But she still had the choice and qualification for a head-to-head duel; she could choose to challenge Platinum now.
And the consequences of Sham's head-to-head duel was known to all, while Sea the Stars possessed a terrifying final kick…
After eliminating options one by one, it seemed the most suitable choice for Sea the Stars was…
"Well, then it depends on whether Platinum realizes this."
Seabiscuit stroked her chin with interest, turning her attention back to Platinum.
"Can she open up a big enough lead to shut down Sea the Stars's decision?"
--+--
And not the [strategic front-run] full of cunning she had inferred?!
No, how could there be an Uma Musume who, even in the dignified world's number one race, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, still charges ahead without restraint, running recklessly?
Sea the Stars couldn't understand it, and was greatly shocked.
"Two lengths!"
"Three lengths!"
The gap was beginning to widen.
"This?!"
In an extremely short time, Platinum had pulled away, leaving Sea the Stars behind to the point where she could barely see her in her peripheral vision. Sea the Stars's breathing hitched for a moment.
But the next second, she returned to an extreme calm, her gaze icy and sharp, fixed on the silver-white figure slowly increasing the distance between them.
Because… Sea the Stars still refused to admit defeat. Even with her heart racing and filled with astonishment, as the perfect Uma Musume crowned champion of Europe, Sea the Stars absolutely did not believe she was weaker than any Uma Musume!
Even if Platinum was some kind of reincarnation of a former turf legend, a "Dancing Brave II" or "Urban Sea Returns," no less than those legendary seniors who had won the Arc, Sea the Stars had the resolve to fight her. Her fighting spirit wouldn't diminish in the slightest.
Whoever it was, however strong, bring it on!
Dr. Lin is watching from the stands; how could I lose?
[Domain: Activate]!!
The always seemingly lazy, petite chestnut-haired girl, who in any previous race, whether boxed in during the race or marked by all opponents, had always nonchalantly seized victory—Sea the Stars…
In the next moment, from within Sea the Stars's body, erupted a cold, deep, and vast, sea-like powerful momentum. The intensity of this momentum was no less than that of world-class Uma Musume going all out, using their domain skills at full power.
The powerful momentum burst forth, transforming into a domain, reaching a level that instantly pressurized the entire field, stunning almost all Uma Musume.
And that was just the initial moment of Sea the Stars activating her domain, not even her full power.
'A reckless front-run of this intensity… Platinum absolutely cannot sustain it for the entire race.'
For the current Sea the Stars, she didn't plan to engage immediately. She intended to follow closely behind the Pegasus, waiting for her opportunity.
'And… even if she really can grit her teeth and hold on, it doesn't mean I can't close the gap.'
'Don't think that just because I've switched to a forward-running or front-running style, I can't catch you, Platinum!'
Within Sea the Stars's petite body lay not only infinite momentum but also a truly perfected, flawless, powerful physique!
In Sea the Stars's view, the Pegasus Platinum was the answer standing at the apex of all Uma Musume. Her outstanding physicality and peerless final kick were enough to support any running style.
Even on ultra-heavy ground, Platinum could absolutely use a forward-running or even more aggressive front-running style, leading while still possessing an absolute final kick.
The [wealth] the Pegasus possessed in races was terrifyingly abundant.
And if Platinum could do it, she, Sea the Stars, absolutely could too!
Even if she couldn't replicate the domineering second or even third acceleration of a Great Escape, as a forward-runner, or even stepping up to a conventional front-runner giving chase, following closely behind the Pegasus while activating an incomplete domain—Sea the Stars could fully do it!
She was the Uma Musume closest to legendary status in the current era; winning here to ascend to legend wasn't out of the question!
'Since Platinum isn't choosing to conserve stamina, activating her domain for the sake of extreme leadership…'
'Then, I can't let her have her way completely. Even if I can't recklessly accelerate to full speed to duel her now, I must activate an incomplete domain to shorten the gap to a recoverable distance.'
'I will not yield to anyone!'
The chestnut-haired girl's starry, brilliant eyes firmly locked onto Platinum, who was about to cross the first turn.
For some reason, the corner of Sea the Stars's mouth lifted slightly, curling into a near-expectant, excited curve.
The chance to curb her… was about to arrive!
Because, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe wasn't a fixed, flat turf track; it had relatively different special slopes.
On the surface, the important slope before the first turn of the Arc didn't have an exaggerated gradient; its steepness didn't severely test the Uma Musume.
But… what if the track condition wasn't good ground, but the ultra-heavy ground of Europe's soft turf?
And it was a truly long slope! Dozens to hundreds of meters in length, with a height difference of up to ten meters from the start of the slope to its end!
A major characteristic of this kind of long slope with a seemingly gentle gradient was—[It equalizes everyone]!
For other Uma Musume, this kind of slope mainly meant consuming more stamina earlier; it was more comfortable than those very steep slopes that required slowing down to grit your teeth and climb.
Long, arduous, extremely unfriendly to front-running Uma Musume. Combined with the frequently occurring heavy ground, this was why, in Europe, teeming with strong competitors, there were hardly any instances of [front-running Uma Musume] winning the Arc.
Not to mention… this was ultra-heavy ground!
In Sea the Stars's view, her crucial opportunity had arrived!
As long as she accumulated enough advantage on the uphill, once the long slope ended, it would lead to the downhill section suitable for acceleration!
First uphill, then downhill—that would naturally affect a front-runner burning out, one who relied on rhythm.
But… the Pegasus Maiden ahead of her seemed completely uninterested in rhythm; she wasn't the [strategic] type of front-runner.
So, even Sea the Stars wasn't sure if the downhill section would curb Platinum's wild front-run.
But the curb during the uphill phase was enough!
'It's coming! The collective slowdown on the slope!'
Imminently, the advantage was hers!
--+--
At the same time!
The Silver Maiden did not look ahead at the long, long slope from the perspective of a climber.
On the contrary, she looked down upon it, a slight sense of pity swirling in her heart.
Her feeling about such a slope was… "Is that all?"
Just a longer slope; it wasn't interesting enough.
A long-distance uphill, different from a steep slope that required deceleration, tested the Uma Musume's [power] considerably! And this was an [ultra-heavy ground] more exaggerated than usual!
Facing this first test, one theoretically extremely effective against front-runners, the Silver Pegasus was unimpressed.
About to set foot on the long slope, her cold face showed no fluctuation. Only in the next moment, as this Pegasus girl touched the wide, long slope, her powerful hooves, seemingly unaffected by the dampness or the gradient, began to gallop on the leading section of the slope!
"Break through, and it's the downhill."
"But why should my acceleration be controlled by the track?"
Everything, let it begin here!
Behind her, Sea the Stars, four lengths back, arrived half a step later.
Then came the group of front-runners and forward-running Uma Musume, several lengths behind Sea the Stars, all gritting their teeth preparing to tackle the uphill.
An unprecedented, greatest possible chance to catch Platinum was right before their eyes. Not a single Uma Musume on the field could stay calm; all gazed with expectant eyes at the silver-white figure who took the lead appearing on the slope.
But after just a little while!
From the mid-pack group at the very back, to Agnes Tachyon and Youmzain on the inner lane, and even the forward-runners and front-running Uma Musume at the front…
They all, collectively, were struck dumb, as if witnessing something unbelievable, absolutely impossible.
That was—the Pegasus, still charging rampantly on that incredibly difficult, theoretically must-slow-down long slope?!
"Accelerating?"
Second place, Sea the Stars, pupils constricting. Even she had never seen such a sight.
"Accelerating!"
Fourth place, Youmzain on the inner lane, originally intending to chase, froze.
"Accelerating."
Seventh place, Agnes Tachyon, who from start to finish had been observing Platinum for scientific purposes, as an Uma Musume scientist, actually grinned, excitedly raising her head to look at the silver-white figure flying on the slope.
Most of the Uma Musume on the field fell into a stunned silence in their hearts. As world-class Uma Musume, they all knew…
It's over!!
From this moment, the heavens were changing!
Some Uma Musume even chose to try accelerating now, to see if they could do the same as Platinum, to avoid the gap widening further.
But the very next second they tried, despair rose in their hearts.
Because… the heavy turf, the long slope, made their legs feel weary and weak. The cost of accelerating was extremely high, and the effect was guaranteed to be poor.
Can't do it, it's completely impossible!
"How? How is she accelerating on the slope?"
"Platinum, at this rate, she could take apprentices. Just how does one achieve free acceleration on a slope?"
"This is simply—[Acceleration beyond common sense]! Even more exaggerated than a Great Escape on the inner lane!"
"No, why can a front-running Uma Musume still accelerate recklessly even uphill? What kind of legs did the Three Goddesses bestow upon her?"
"It's over… not only can't we close the gap uphill, but on the free downhill, the gap will only grow larger!"
Just at the slope of the first turn, most Uma Musume had already completely given rise to thoughts of defeat!
But undoubtedly, this absolutely did not include Sea the Stars!
--+--
[First place is Platinum, she sets foot on the long slope. Second is Sea the Stars…]
[All twenty outstanding Uma Musume are gradually setting foot on the long slope, beginning to stride towards the area after the first turn!]
[After the long slope ends, next is a steep downhill section, then comes the time for rhythmic acceleration.]
The commentator first reported the order and positions of the various Uma Musume, then, upon seeing the uphill, his voice became noticeably more steady.
Clearly, this was how it had been in so many past runnings of the Arc; maintaining pace uphill was the convention, and surprises were rare.
[Conventionally, the uphill phase is about maintaining the status quo. The race's rhythm will gradually start to quicken during the downhill phase.]
[That is to say, this is just a steady buffer period… Wait a moment? The leading Pegasus Platinum is beginning to accelerate?!]
[Even second-place Sea the Stars behind her is only maintaining her speed without slowing down, already considerably faster than the third and fourth place Uma Musume. But compared to the visibly accelerating Pegasus, she's still more than a step slower!]
[How is it possible? An Uma Musume who can accelerate on an uphill slope on ultra-heavy ground! Common sense does not exist here!!]
The English commentator's originally calm and casual tone suddenly rose sharply, filled with astonishment.
His voice began to carry notes of praise.
One could say this slope was like a "river flowing upstream."
Many Uma Musume halted and retreated in that [Upstream River], while the Pegasus Platinum's acceleration persisted throughout, persisting!
In Europe and America, where such unbelievable stunts are advocated for, such rule-breaking, common-sense-defying, perception-surpassing behavior—how could it not excite and stir the viewers?
[The already leading-by-several-lengths Pegasus is actually going upstream, going faster and faster!]
[Platinum's charging momentum isn't decreasing but increasing! Before completely cresting the slope… how far can she charge?!]
[Come, witness it! The Pegasus, as if skimming the ground in flight, that racing figure is still accelerating!]
--+--
In an instant!
The long slope was easily overcome; Platinum reached the summit!
And the corner of the Silver Maiden's mouth lifted slightly, sketching a curve of pleasure.
"Next up is the rhythm-accelerating [downhill]!"
"Sea the Stars, can you keep up?"
Platinum felt like seeing just how outstanding this little filly she'd met in America back in the day really was.
Thinking about it, this was her first race against an Uma Musume she'd known from her American days; she couldn't lose face.
As for Dahlia, Ruffian, Sunday Silence, and Secretariat… they could fight later.
Starting with Sea the Stars!
The Pegasus Maiden, leading the field, setting the pace for all, actually now launched into that signature second acceleration.
Eight lengths!
Nine lengths!
Ten lengths!
When Sea the Stars, on the downhill section, also lengthened her stride and began to accelerate.
The gradually widening, large gap was laid out before the chestnut-haired girl's eyes.
Hair standing on end.
Cold sweat streaming.
'This… is completely different from the expectation, the plan!'
In Sea the Stars's cognition, the slope, which should severely curb front-runners, was supposed to allow her to catch up to within two or three lengths of Platinum, returning to the Pegasus's side.
But faced with Platinum's common-sense-defying [slope acceleration], the gap hadn't decreased but increased, transforming at this moment into a large margin of an unprecedented degree.
No good!
If this continued, by the time she planned to accelerate in the latter half, the gap could potentially spread to a [super large margin] of no less than twenty lengths.
Sea the Stars knew perfectly well that a large margin and a super large margin were completely different concepts.
Wasn't Harbinger, the strongest G2 Uma Musume currently capable of threatening her, defeated in the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes precisely because she was opened up to a super large margin?
Even though Harbinger's final kick was extremely strong, fighting with all her might could only reduce the super large margin back to a gap of over ten lengths before her defeat, becoming one of the background characters for Platinum's finish.
So… she absolutely must not replicate Harbinger's defeat; she cannot allow Platinum to obtain a "super large margin" advantage!
Danger, it's dangerous enough already!
Then let this incomplete domain fully transform, unleash its full power!!
Not even halfway through the race, the chestnut-haired girl Sea the Stars's sharp intuition, her excellent insight, made her without hesitation decide to burn her boats—to begin accelerating.
In the next instant, her domain-level surging momentum could advance even further.
This queen of turf who had swept across Europe and the world, her azure eyes were fully occupied by serious fighting spirit.
[(Ocean's Bloodline): When in a "European G1 Race," moderately increases fighting spirit, slightly increases speed, and slightly suppresses the domains of Uma Musume without "Ocean's Bloodline."]
[(Chasing Star): Slightly increases own stamina, speed, physical strength. Reduces stamina consumption moderately and increases fighting spirit moderately in the first half of the race. Increases explosiveness and power slightly in the latter half.]
[(Hunting Time): Momentum intensity increases based on the average strength of all Uma Musume in the race. Fighting spirit greatly…]
[(Fighting Soul Awakening): Slightly drains the stamina of Uma Musume with weaker momentum…]
As Sea the Stars's domain fully exerted its full power, covering the entire field.
Just as they reached the second turn, many Uma Musume who had completed the difficult climb were still thinking about how to handle the faster rhythm after the downhill…
Before they could ponder further, they felt a terrifying wave! A huge wave is enough to sweep away, even swallow up, all Uma Musume on the field!
Sea the Stars's domain proclaimed… the true confrontation, the contest of strength, had officially begun!!
The acceleration from Sea the Stars advanced further, visibly faster than any Uma Musume behind by who knows how much.
But the chestnut-haired girl still frowned slightly; she was not at all satisfied with the result.
"Actually… in terms of [intensity] and [suppressive power], it can't match hers?"
"What weakness does this Pegasus even have?!"
Manipulating her domain, Sea the Stars instantly perceived the difference in strength.
Herself, who could always casually surpass world-class opponents even while slacking, actually had to go all out just to have a chance at victory!
"Then… let the acceleration begin!"
Up on the high platform, the commentator's analysis of the situation continued, growing even more excited due to Sea the Stars's acceleration.
The over hundred thousand massive audience in the stands were almost all focused on those two figures on the inner lane.
The Silver Pegasus!
The Chestnut-Colored Demon King!
Their rivalry had already begun ahead of schedule!!
This war was about to reach its final curtain!
--+--
[What a terrifyingly intense duel! Worthy of the world-anticipated Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe showdown!]
[The race is past halfway, not yet at the final straight. Normally, the front-running Uma Musume and the forward-running group should be leading the field's rhythm, gradually pushing the race to a white-hot intensity…]
[But obviously, the two monsters named Platinum and Sea the Stars will not be dominated by any Uma Musume below legendary status! They have already led the third place by a large margin, accelerating at the very front.]
[Will their "duel" last the entire race from start to finish?!]
[Or perhaps… it isn't really a duel, but Sea the Stars trying to catch up to the Pegasus's back?]
Under the commentator's increasingly excited emotions, his words never strayed far from the two names: Sea the Stars and Platinum.
As for the other Uma Musume? Any possibility of a dark horse? A potential second "Sea the Stars"?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Most people were convinced! Whoever it was, past winners of the Arc, would find it extremely difficult to snatch victory from the jaws of these two monsters! Not to mention… the other Uma Musume on the field.
--+--
On the turf track.
In the rear pack.
"No good, it's only the second half, and we're this far behind. How can we catch up?"
"It seems we can only truly become spectators on the track?"
"From start to finish, is Sea the Stars the only one with the qualifications to challenge the Pegasus?"
"Wuu, I can't even make it to the Pegasus Hall of Fame. Can only fight for third place now?"
From the various forward-running Uma Musume to the pace-setters, most had thoroughly given rise to despair.
That gap was just too large!
And all their reactions, all their actions, went completely unnoticed by those two figures racing towards the third turn, advancing towards the final straight.
Sea the Stars was staring with burning eyes, firmly locking onto the Silver Pegasus Maiden over a dozen lengths ahead.
Her ambition was burning limitlessly.
The chestnut-haired girl's steps were incredibly light, her acceleration enough for ordinary spectators to see.
'Bow before me, Pegasus!'
'After hunting you down, I won't need to worry about any other races. I can… as the strongest, fulfill my promise with Dr. Lin!'
'Then I can retire immediately and switch to the [Lin Anran Cup]! You must not stop me!'
Her icy, petite, pretty face was filled with unprecedented seriousness.
--+--
[The final fourth turn is still some distance away. The Pegasus Platinum is about to reach the final straight.]
[Truly astonishing! The continuously galloping Pegasus has even leading the accelerating, closely pursuing Sea the Stars? But Sea the Stars remains indomitable, catching up.]
[They are constantly approaching the final straight. Who will emerge victorious?!]
Accompanied by the commentator's increasingly excited voice, the entire audience of over a hundred thousand spectators watched with racing hearts.
The voices cheering for either Platinum or Sea the Stars boiled over, spreading throughout the vast Colosseum of the Kazimierz Major.
The Silver Pegasus Maiden, when she reached the final straight…
She could clearly perceive the figure behind her, constantly accelerating.
"Still holding on, Sea the Stars? Not bad for a [small fry] I underestimated."
"But… I won't lose!"
The next moment, Platinum's flight advanced further, launching into an absolute acceleration.
The jet-black wings of the Silver Maiden seemed to beat even faster!!
It was the third acceleration of a front-running Uma Musume!
Accelerate!
Accelerate!
Still accelerating!!
A scene that would spell despair for any Uma Musume fell upon Sea the Stars's eyes.
'H-How… how is this possible?'
'Still accelerating? Why can Platinum still accelerate?!'
When she saw that clearly, even after starting her full acceleration early, even after exerting her domain's full power, she still struggled to chase the Platinum ahead…
Sea the Stars's serious expression, her exquisite features, instantly lost all color.
In her heart, she suddenly thought—within sight yet beyond reach.
She suddenly felt her breath catch, a near-suffocating sensation spreading through her body.
The next moment, Sea the Stars's eyes widened, no longer able to maintain her calm and fighting spirit, her face pale and bloodless.
She could only watch helplessly as that thunderous, dazzling figure reached the final straight, striding towards the finish line!
Under that strong fighting spirit, that indomitable heart, the Demon King within sight, the presence considered most likely to end the Pegasus—Sea the Stars—could not close the gap by even a fraction!
The finish line had unconsciously… drawn near!
Under the gaze of the entire world—
The Silver Pegasus, clad in shining, knightly racewear, displayed an unprecedented vigor and shining glory!
Amidst the most fiery cheers and celebrations—
The commentator's booming and excited voice, spreading throughout the spectator stands and to the ears of viewers worldwide!
[Sea the Stars! Perfect as Sea the Stars, is once again being opened up, unable to close the gap!]
[And so—it concludes, the Pegasus Platinum dashes to victory!]
[That's a super victory of as many as fourteen lengths?! The world-conquering Pegasus triumphs in the world's number one race!]
The next moment, the entire venue erupted into earth shaking cheers, countless sounds tirelessly echoing through the vast arena.
From English to Japanese and other languages, congratulations for Platinum's unbelievable, astonishing great victory constantly rang out.
[—No! Not only that]
[Second place Sea the Stars has already surpassed the previous time record of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe! That's legendary-level strength!"]
["And the Pegasus Platinum, who soundly defeated such a close to legend—or perhaps truly legendary—Uma Musume, is the only one in the history of Uma Musume across all nations to have done so using a Great Escape!"]
["After this battle, the [Big Red Monster · Secretariat], the dirt legend ranked world number one among Uma Musume, will also be surpassed by the rising Pegasus Platinum!!"]
Beyond the finish line, the silver-white girl clad in knightly armor, the jet-black wings surrounding her finally dissipated.
The Pegasus now stood atop the world!
Henceforth, Platinum undoubtedly ascended to world number one!
