Umamusume Pretty Derby: Gold Ship Build Guide

The main goal in Umamusume: Pretty Derby is training your horse girls to dominate races. Gold Ship is one of the 26 characters you can pick, and she’s got a unique style—hanging back to save energy before zooming past everyone at the end. To make her shine, you need the right build. Let’s break it down.

Best Build for Gold Ship in Umamusume: Pretty Derby

To get Gold Ship ready to win, you need to focus on her stats, but not all of them matter equally. The game has five key stats: Speed, Power, Stamina, Wit, and Guts. Here’s what to prioritize for her.

Best Stats for Gold Ship

Primary Stat
Speed and Power are the big ones for Gold Ship. She’s all about that late-race sprint to overtake everyone, so pump up her Speed to make sure she’s fast enough to pass the pack. Power’s also key to keep her momentum strong—aim for at least 500 Power to help her finish like a champ.

Secondary Stat
Stamina is a must for any horse girl, including Gold Ship. You’ll want at least 400 Stamina for medium races and 500 for longer ones, especially if you’ve got skills like Maestro. If you don’t have Maestro, bump Stamina even higher. Guts is also helpful, as it cuts down on how much energy she burns during her final push.

Optional Stat
Wit is the least critical for Gold Ship, but don’t totally ignore it. Aim for around 400 Wit to help her trigger skills at the right moment. It also gives a slight stamina boost during training.

Support Cards for Gold Ship

This build balances early training with Gold Ship’s natural ability to surge late in races. Here’s a solid card setup for her:

3 Speed Cards
2 Stamina Cards or 1 Stamina and 1 Power Card
1 Wit Card

You could swap a Stamina or Power card for a Guts card to boost three stats at once, but it’s not the top choice. Stick with high-quality cards like Super Creek or Fine Motion for the best results.

Best Skills for Gold Ship

Not every skill works for Gold Ship, even if it sounds good on its own. Pick skills that play to her strengths as a late-race charger. Here’s what to go for:

Catchy Maestro
Stamina-based Recovery
Late Boost Skills
Power and Guts Boosts

Add these to her build to make her unstoppable in Umamusume: Pretty Derby.
