How do Legend Races work?

Legend Races are like Daily Races—you can toss in any of your trained-up Veteran Umamusume. Just showing up gets you some goodies, but winning? That’s where the big rewards, like Star Pieces, roll in. These races are tough, though, with some seriously strong Umamusume as your rivals.

Each batch of Legend Races has a theme, so you can prep your team to take down these legends and claim their Star Pieces. Here’s the lowdown on the upcoming Sprinters Stakes in Umamusume.

Umamusume Legend Races: Sprinters Stakes – Conditions

  • Surface: Turf, Firm
  • Distance: Sprint, 1,200m
  • Direction: Right-Handed
  • Weather: Sunny

Umamusume Legend Races: Sprinters Stakes – Strategy

To beat these legends, train up a strong Sprint Umamusume with solid stats and a good mix of Skills. Here are the best picks in the current roster:

  • Sakura Bakushin O (Sprint aptitude: A)
  • Taiki Shuttle (Sprint aptitude: A)
  • King Halo (Sprint aptitude: A)
  • Curren Chan (Sprint aptitude: A)
  • Maruzensky (Sprint aptitude: B, needs one Sprint Spark)

You can’t use the same Umamusume as the one you’re racing against, so plan accordingly—someone else has to take on Sakura Bakushin O, for example.

Focus on Speed and Power for these short Sprint races, since Stamina isn’t a huge deal. A bit of Guts helps with the final push, and Wit keeps Skills firing and Stamina in check.

On top of speed, recovery, and maneuvering Skills (which depend on your character’s race plan), grab some performance-boosting passives. Since the race conditions are locked in, Skills that shine on Firm ground, in Sunny weather, or on Right-Handed tracks are a surefire way to get an edge.
