What the rival umas see when Shiro and her OG Crew arrive at the racetrack:

To be fair, the Ice Cream sisters are not going to be body builder bulky, since they aren't actually show or competition umas, but they are about that tall and would be quite muscular since they are laborers, even if it isn't super heavy duty. Their mother, on the other hand, is quite amazonian looking, since her job basically has her working as a more precise forklift. It still does look quite funny when the hang out with Shirogane, since they all defer to her as big sister despite the size difference.

Draft-Uma tending to be gentle giants and looking to Shiro for leadership, in part due to the sheer aura of a Destrier-Uma and her natural body language/disposition… well Shiro standing in front of an entire mob of Uma 1.5x her height and quadruple her mass, it's a surprisingly believable picture.

Shiro accidentally collected a fair number of uma minions throughout her school life, in large part because she brings food, though her always being calm and in control of herself also played a big part. And yes, most of them would be taller than her.

Her dastardly evil advertisement plan for her family restaurant worked even better than intended! The next generation of hungry, high-value customer-uma all across the city will already have acquired a taste and craving for her polish cuisine! Her retirement managing the restaurant will be secure!

Now she just needs a sash or banner with her family restaurant logo/name when she does a winning live, and the shamelessness will be complete!
 
If Shiro introduces the idea of sponsors to uniforms she deserves the villain label 100%. Think of the artistry and expression that would suffer because of her… Quick, someone tell Grass Wonder that Shiro is destroying a Japanese tradition! She must be stopped!

Being seen eating from a bento with her family restaurant logo is much more tasteful.

Maybe she just needs to run bento deliveries up and down a local mountain with roller-blades, in the dark, with her eyes closed and using only her ears, coincidentally out-pacing and passing a bunch of amateur gangs of motorsport uma-drifters (wearing motorized boots/skates)?

The event becomes such an inspiring pop culture icon in the local town, that they make an anime about it in umaland, calling it Umitial D or Orzitial D!
Because hey, Shirogane Orzel... really is... Running in the 90s! :V
 
I was lurking in the comments reading some cool ideas and it got thinking of a very Bad breakdown for Shirogane if she ever gets to have one which I hope she doesn't; where she sputters out nonsense but bits and pieces were intelligible enough to get people concerned. Something like "I have to repay them", "they did everything to give me a good life", "last time I was an orphan during the war", "I had to kill even when I didn't want to", "I was a good soldier" and so on, some really disturbing shit to hear from a child however there shouldn't be anything regarding about magic cause that would be a bit much at least for me.

This could happen in ten faculty after some kind of scandal or at home after a being X fakeout freight, if it happens in the faculty a trainer could have it record it and show to the family, idk this is as far as I got to before commenting.

In chapter 1 there was speculation that she remembered some things from a past life or at least impressions of one, so there would be a slight explanation for it.

Shiro is incredibly composed, I can't see a situation where she'd slip up that badly. Even if she got upset I don't think it'd come to her saying that stuff out loud. Especially since while she's definitely affected by her experiences at war I wouldn't necessarily call her traumatized either; the distance of a new life, a new brain, and time has made it so she's not really suffering from PTSD per say even if there are some lingering instincts.

"Runners ready?!" Came Rudolf's authoritative voice, barking like an announcer, or a field commander. A useful trait for her position.

Both of them gave an affirmative, crouching slightly in preparation, watching for when the gates would open–

Bang!

CRUNCH!

"Wah?!"

Shirogane blinked, finding herself turned around and her fist smashed through the speaker that had played the starting…gun noise.

Oh.

"Well, that is one kind of jumping the gun I haven't seen before," Rudolf remarked.

"Ehem." Air Groove coughed into her fist, trying to pretend she hadn't just let out a rather undignified sound. "That is a stronger reaction than I have seen in a while."

"My apologies," Shirogane grunted, extracted her hand from the ruined speaker. "I should have recognized the gunshot was fake."

Not to dismiss what you said... but there are some strong instincts.

Those seem to be as much from the "breed" of umamusume she is as trauma from a past life.

I'm judging her by her overall behavior in the story, not a single jumpscare instance. Throughout the story she has periodically had the urge to inflict violence but it was never framed in a way that made me think it's because she's PTSD'd from a past life.

I suppose you are right. Its hard for me to see the difference between between it because she has always been aware of others around so that's why she hasn't been jumpscared. That's why she reacted so strongly when the pistol went off in my quote. It wasn't something she expected to hear.

About 35 years of Horse Reincarnation Therapy managed to calm down most of the PTSD instincts, one might say.
 
So, I was watching videos from youtube and this video appeared in my feed, it's about how much the umas should be earning in their careers, basically?, it should be at minimum, the equivalent to a professional Football/Soccer player's salary, without adding more things leik merch or sponsorships.

Just for the record, it's in spanish, you will have to use subtitles.
