Compared to some umamusume outfits, I think this one's pretty sensible and logical far what you might find in a racing environment.

Is that manga or anime? Please tell me it's manga, because if it's anime I have to start wondering how the hell I missed it every time.

Manga, I actually think it's been posted here before.
Oh, I posted it.
Also I'm just now realizing I forgot to draw Steady's tail. How does this always happen?
Going off the postman theme Wrandm had laid out... Originally the idea was just to give her a puffy Union Line jacket over top a crop-top and skirt, but I get the feeling that Steady is too fashionable to settle for that. Also the navy blue and electric yellow combo is going to take some justifying from her end when Shiro eventually asks about it.
"This color combination is... by your own admission, quite garish."
"Er.. Well you see... Err... It's what my jockey wore!"
"What?"
"Huh?"
edit:
Let's just go with that.

I assumed it's just behind the clothing in this shot.

Yeah the Uma would effectively be the owner in terms of cut, the trainer might get both the jockey and trainer cut.
Not sure if the timeline works since horse Fenomeno was born in 2009, at which point Shiro would no longer be running. If there was an anime or manga for this theoretical umaverse, the Uma that is depicted as inspired by Shiro is probably Vodka because she runs in the Tokyo Derby as a mare.
Shadai
Fuji Kiseki would probably be high on the list of studs they'd want to pair horse Shiro with. Also Silence Suzuka before he died, since it would be noted that the two horses seemed to be friends with each other.
There's also the Stayer's Stake, where Shiro might look like Secretariat because the competition in the 1998 one isn't that strong. By the time she's done they're probably naming the race after her.
It's not like there won't be strong competition in the coming years, but Shiro could become a "Gatekeeper to Greatness" since runners who can beat her will probably make it big.
Or in the umamusume game verse, the meme is that "can the horse beat Shirogane once" is a determining question for will they be in the game.
Shirogane at the 2000 Sydney Olympics sneaking past the follow along camera crew because she's going so fast for a marathon.
She was thinking about running in these track conditions and not liking the idea.
Very nice! The colors do look a little silly, but honestly not too out of place among Uma outfits. I guess it's a reference to her dad being a higher up in the postal service or something.
D'oh! Should be fixed now.
"My trainer liked it…"
"Ah right, it does come down to that much of the time with you, doesn't it."

It occurs to me that Marathon's are probs the only running event that humans can out preform Uma at to a degree... except for Shiro who is a monster who is both fine on asphalt/cement and also a persistence predator.

I have misread That as "Slayer's Stake" and thought what it would be Shirogane obtaining New nickname after the race

G2 Stayers Stakes (12/5/98, T3600m): 1st place, 64.73 million yen; it was raining that day too.
As much fun as it was to cook up a scenario where Shirogane just barely misses out on setting a new single-year JPN earnings record, it's more likely that she will set a new record, despite not running the Arima Kinen, simply out of sheer volume. I already had to heavily nerf her just to ensure that she stayed close to Narita Brian's earnings, simply because running both Triple sets + as many trial races as she can schedule is already overpowered for earnings.
If we take the same list of races that I listed out, change all of her losses to 2nd place instead of 3rd-5th, add the Japan Cup at 2nd place between El Condor Pasa and Air Groove (53.92 million) and Stayers Stakes at 1st place, then Shirogane will earn a jaw-dropping 1033.53 million yen (just shy of T.M.Opera O's record of 1036.00 million yen in 2000), with her 1998 race record being 29-10-19-0, career record 39-12-27-0.

Manga
Hmmm in that case, Shiro's killer instincts may inspire the 5th place Uma of the 2007 Derby.

A lot of people forget that, especially when it comes to Tracen uma, which are entirely Thoroughbreds (Shirogane being the exception) and have poor endurance in exchange for their speed.
Assuming most Trainers stay in very good shape, there's a nearby hill, and given a few minutes head start, there's a very good chance a Trainer could escape most of the trainees.

But then the question becomes how much money an Uma actually takes home after all of her expenses. Which depending on if the academy covers the food bill for its students and whether they just charge more in tuition as a result. A lot of that prize money might go to food bills among other things.
