I just finished watching Uma Musu Movie: Shinjidai no Tobira. Tachyon and Opera O were sick!!! Especially Opera O in her Japan Cup race, the gap was so small and she was in the inside lane almost got boxed in, it is like a blink and Opera O already run past the others.
Then from this scene, I think that maybe 'Zone' so fic called even it 'Domain, maybe just the unique skill that the Uma Musu: Pretty Derby have.
Oguri's Triumphant Pulse only work in 200 ters before finish, it is like her 'zone' training when Musaka asked her to focus on the distance marking. Maybe others are like this too.

In the evening, Shuta Ann was getting ready for bed.
"Lately, the Dream World has also entered the sumr racing season, just like reality. There aren't any G1 races for to ride in. I'll have to see if I can get a few mounts in the sumr graded races."
After smoothly entering the Dream World, he once again found himself at the entrance of Nagahama Ranch. This ti, Trainer Matsumoto Shoichi wasn't with him.
"So, as Trainer Matsumoto said, I'm supposed to co obediently to see this world's Tokai Teio, huh. Still—every ti I t and interacted with Oguri in the Dream World, my intimacy with her increased after I woke up. If I interact with Teio today will it tell I gained Teio's intimacy too?" The young man hesitated at the entrance instead of walking in.
"Shuta-kun ca to see Teio." A staff mber recognized him and greeted him with a smile.
Startled out of his thoughts, Shuta Ann nodded. "Yes. Since I promised Trainer Matsumoto, I need to keep my word."
"It's already sumr racing season. Shuta-kun, why not consider staying in Hokkaido for the whole sumr? Then you can visit Teio anyti." The staff suggested.
"This—" Shuta Ann didn't agree imdiately. "I'll have to think about it. I haven't considered that before. And if I stay in Hokkaido, I don't have many riding requests lined up right now."
"Well since it involves your main work, it's good to be cautious," the staff replied kindly.
Shuta Ann smiled as he followed along. "Yes, I need to be careful and not decide recklessly."
"At this hour, Teio is still out grazing with her mother. Even though she seed unusually affectionate with you last ti, she's still a foal—we can't rely on her mory. Please be careful," another staff mber reminded him.
"I know." Shuta Ann gave a thumbs-up. "I'll be careful."
When he arrived at Teio's grazing area, he stayed behind the ranch staff as before. But the mont Teio noticed soone entering the field, she imdiately trotted over with bright, lively steps.
The staff instinctively stepped forward, blocking Shuta Ann. "Shuta-kun, be careful."
"Yeah, yeah." He replied, though sothing told him that Teio had no ill intent.
Sure enough, once she got close, Teio nimbly slipped around the staff and bumped straight into Shuta Ann's arms, rubbing her head against him.
"Woah!!!" The staff mber turned around, stunned. "This is the first ti I've seen Teio act so affectionate. She definitely rembers you."
Shuta Ann stroked her head. "I'm surprised too."
He leaned in slightly, looking into her eyes. "Can you hear ?"
Teio simply squinted her eyes, enjoying the pets, completely ignoring the question.
"Right." Shuta Ann laughed helplessly. "How could she possibly understand? I'm overthinking."
Since Teio was only a few months old and couldn't bear weight, riding her was impossible. Instead, Shuta Ann just stayed with her in the pasture until it was ti for her to return to the stable.
Once the herding ti ca, the staff led Teio and her mother back. Shuta Ann followed them to the Setoguchi Tsutomu Stable. After returning, Teio imdiately curled up on the straw mat and fell asleep.
"She must be tired from playing with you. She fell asleep without fussing today." The staff whispered, afraid to wake her.
"So, I actually helped?" Shuta Ann raised an eyebrow.
"Indeed." The staff grinned.
With Teio asleep, there was no longer a reason to stay. After leaving Nagahama Ranch, Shuta Ann walked leisurely along the rural road toward the station.
"Trainer Setoguchi might be right. Maybe I should stay in Hokkaido for the sumr. It'd make visiting Teio easier. Oguri will be grazing all sumr and won't return to the stable. And the first autumn race is the Mainichi Okan—there's still two months." He muttered.
But when he reached into his pocket to call Trainer Setoguchi, he stopped.
"There aren't cell phones here" He sighed and hurried his pace toward the station. He still needed to return to Ritto Training Center today—
anwhile, Tokai Teio opened her eyes.
"Three in the morning" She glanced at her roommate, Mayano Top Gun, who still seed to be playing a ga.
"Maya-chan is so energetic." Teio shook her head with a helpless smile and closed her eyes again.
But the dream she had earlier replayed in her mind—especially the mont where she nuzzled into the young man's chest.
"The person in my dream looked exactly like Trainer even his voice was the sa. And just seeing him made feel so close." Teio's cheeks reddened. "But the in that dream was strange too— I changed into that form, and acted foolishly, doing everything without thinking."
She sighed softly. "What's happening to ? This has happened once before. Will it happen again next month?"
If the dream had affected her sleep, she would've already reported it to Symboli Rudolf. To Teio, Kaichou was practically omnipotent. But because this matter involved the Trainer who recently caused trouble for the URA Association, Teio hesitated.
"Maybe Kaichou wouldn't know either since I couldn't find anything online," she murmured. Soon, she drifted back to sleep, dreaming again—but without the vivid lucidity from earlier.
———
The next evening, with Berno Light resting her head on his right arm, Shuta Ann fell into another dream. He found himself at the entrance of Setoguchi Tsutomu Stable. Trainer Setoguchi walked out just then.
"Shuta-kun, you can go straight in—or were you waiting for ?" Setoguchi asked, surprised.
"I have sothing to discuss." Shuta Ann explained the suggestion from Nagahama Ranch's staff.
"Staying in Hokkaido for the sumr? Not impossible—actually, that's a good idea." Setoguchi closed his eyes in thought. "Oguri won't return this sumr. She'll graze and grow at the ranch. Staying here on Honshu is no different from Hokkaido, but in Hokkaido you can visit Teio."
"You know Teio too?" Shuta Ann asked, surprised.
"How could I not?" Setoguchi sighed. "Matsumoto Shoichi won't stop talking in Ritto—saying that foal might beco an undefeated Triple Crown winner like her father."
He raised an eyebrow. "You've t Teio twice. What do you think? He says it so confidently I'm starting to doubt him."
"She's only a few months old." Shuta Ann shook his head. "It's too early to tell."
"But—" he added, "Her body is extrely flexible. If her speed is good, I think she could achieve impressive results."
"Is that so—" Setoguchi exhaled. "Well, her debut is still two years away. No point worrying now."
"An undefeated Triple Crown isn't easy anyway," Shuta Ann agreed.
Since he'd decided to stay in Hokkaido for the sumr, he would only accept Sapporo or Hakodate rides. With the help of Trainers Setoguchi, Matsumoto, and Assistant Ikee, the news spread quickly—soon, many riding requests would co. Shuta Ann left Ritto to return to Kasamatsu, pack his luggage, and move into the sumr-only Sapporo Training Center, which offered free accommodation.
When he woke, his right arm was numb again. He gently slid it out from under Berno Light and winced. After washing up and changing into workout clothes, he headed out for a morning run.
"It won't be long until the Central Tracen Academy sumr camp. After a few days there, I'll return to Hokkaido from Miyagi. This vacation feels really fragnted" He muttered while jogging along Noboribetsu's roadside.
"Once I return to Kasamatsu in September, Oguri has to prepare for the Autumn Tenno Sho."
In the Dream World, her autumn debut would be the Mainichi Okan—understandable, since Dream World Oguri wasn't a G1 Uma Musu yet.
"Trainer Setoguchi's race plan for her is so conservative. Most of the races are guaranteed wins." He shook his head. "Quite different from my approach."
Still, despite his more aggressive race plans, the results were excellent: with two G1 wins, Oguri Cap was already the most accomplished of her generation.
After his morning routine, Shuta Ann asked Oguri Cap and Berno Light, "Shall we go sightseeing in Sapporo today?"
"It's already almost ten. If we go now, we'll arrive in the afternoon and won't have much ti. Let's go early tomorrow instead," Berno Light suggested.
"We just won't co back tonight," Oguri Cap countered eagerly.
"If we stay overnight, we can enjoy the night view from Mount Moiwa. They say it's as spectacular as Mount Hakodate's 'Ten Great Night Views of the World.'" Shuta Ann added.
"If we're sightseeing tomorrow too, then I don't mind" Berno muttered.
"Then it's decided." Shuta Ann finished his bun and stood. "We'll leave after breakfast."
"Okay!" Oguri raised her hand, still chewing.
From Noboribetsu to Sapporo, they again took the train, arriving in just over an hour.
"We already explored the malls last ti, so we're not going there again," Shuta Ann said before the two Uma Musu could speak—preventing them from wandering off again.
"Then where?" Berno Light asked.
"We'll visit the zoo first, then Hokkaido Shrine. After that, depending on the ti, we'll grab dinner downtown before heading up Mount Moiwa."
"Sounds good!" Oguri agreed instantly. Berno Light also accepted.
———
Sapporo's Maruyama Zoo—one of only four zoos in Hokkaido and the oldest—featured not only common animals but also native Ezo flying squirrels and huge Ezo brown bears. Walking around multiple tis was enough to keep Oguri and Berno happily entertained.
A short walk away stood Hokkaido Shrine, the highest-ranking shrine in the region. Without a prayer function, the three simply strolled around before thinking about dinner.
Then Shuta rembered a dessert shop—Rokkatei.
"Even though eating just dessert at night isn't ideal, they also serve regular food. Want to try it? Oguri ntioned wanting to try Hokkaido desserts before."
"I want to go!" Oguri's ears perked up instantly.
