I don't think Oguri picked the wrong position, but she fought a bit too much, should have backed up the moment Michelle My Baby bump into her. That probably rough up more stamina than intended. Rough play is pretty legal huh, I mean I have seen those clips of Gentildonna just squeeze through 2 horses like she owned the place(she probably does).

Obey Your Master came in like those Wall Titan in AoT, about to unleash and walk all over the world.

Gold City is actually so beautiful in this adaptation.

Gold City has been one of my faves since her first appearance in the anime but the CyGames design really does her justice.

being a model and all I always thought gold city looks particularly beautiful even in the game but anime is really making her justice
I love her and praying she gets some spotlight

There really isn’t much you can do when a nearly 2 meter tall mountain of muscles decides that you’re in her spot and Michelle clearly makes that a deliberate part of her strategy by bullying others out of position.

Pre-race Obey Your Master even got a look from Michelle who is probably the only competitor that’s raced against her before like she suspects a scheme.

Clip of some US race called Preakness Stakes (Peakness? As in Cap?) popped up in my recommendations earlier this year, and it exactly shows what this episode was describing, just even better.

We have TM Opera O slithering through a wall and we have horses like Gentildonna and Journalism who will absolutely body you to make a path forward.

I searched up Moonlight Lunacy's irl races too and the British are even more aggressive

Watched the IRL race, and you can see Tamamo Cross get tossed around like in this ep

some US race called Preakness Stakes

please note that the preakness along with the kentucky derby and belmont stakes is part of the american triple crown

Gold City is actually so beautiful in this adaptation.

The IRL horse was absurdly pretty, so I think her pretty design fits her very well.
