On a Pale Horse (Umamusume/Youjo Senki)

Steady Distance - Kyori wa, mikata da.(Distance is on her side)
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.

There's a cute panel in Cinderella Grey where Oguri takes a picture with a young TM Opera O, I imagine Shiro does the same for Vodka. Which makes me wonder if Vodka's idea of cool gets influenced by Shiro beyond the choice of race?

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

Let's just go with that.

Once a horse secures their percentage based on where they finish, that specific payout is split using the 80/10/5/5 owner-trainer-jockey-staff breakdown outlined above."
If anything, the Uma would be the Owner.
Yeah the Uma would effectively be the owner in terms of cut, the trainer might get both the jockey and trainer cut.

Similar to CinGray where we see Oguri with a young TM Opera, maybe we will get a cameo of a young Meno meeting with Shiro at a fan event
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.

Oh look. Here is a Shirogane! She's so factory fresh, she still has that plastic film on the dash! Everybody wants her.
Shadai FarmsFamily: "That one! We need that one!"

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.

We have six weeks between the Kikuka Sho and the Tokyo Daishoten. Practice time
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.

I see Shirogane being considered a legend in later years, by staying racing way past her generation and winning against younger and younger Umas every year.
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.

Actually when I think about it a marathon would be great way to show case Shiro strengths. There might not be one in Japan but there could very well be in another part of the world.
Shirogane at the 2000 Sydney Olympics sneaking past the follow along camera crew because she's going so fast for a marathon.

Why did she get a shiver when it was specifically not because of the temperature?
She was thinking about running in these track conditions and not liking the idea.

Steady Distance - Kyori wa, mikata da.
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.

Minor correction, but the Kyodo News Service Hai (Kyodo Tsushin Hai) was (and still is) a G3.
D'oh! Should be fixed now.

"This color combination is... by your own admission, quite garish."

"Er.. Well you see... Err... It's what my jockey wore!"

"What?"

"Huh?"
"My trainer liked it…"

"Ah right, it does come down to that much of the time with you, doesn't it."
