Horse Girl, about my time as a trainer in Tresen

“Is it so hard to choose the photo for the finish line this time? Why did it take you so long to look at it?”
Generally speaking, it would only take a dozen seconds to announce the results…but today it took more than a minute to announce the results.
“Out.”
On the big screen, after the finishing time of Mi Yu and Manchester City Tea House, the word “Photo” was replaced by “1”… In other words, this time, the Spring Royal Award was won by both of them.
“We received news that the heavy rain caused the final finish line photo to be blurry…so they couldn’t tell who won this time.”
But Higashino Chihiro didn’t care about all that. He now had to go to the contestant channel to welcome the two victorious horse girls, and also remind them to take a bath quickly and change their wet clothes.
“You two…”
Looking at the two horse racing girls with wet hair that was dripping with water, Higashino Chihiro swallowed back all the words she wanted to say.
“Go take a shower, don’t catch a cold.”
Actually, there was nothing much to say. I was just really worried that they would catch a cold after being caught in the rain. I also blamed myself for not bringing anything to keep out the cold, knowing that it was likely to rain today.
There would be a press conference later, and he didn’t have time to buy it, so he took out his cell phone and called Super Bay, asking her to go to the store outside the racecourse to buy some ginger, so that she could make some hot water for them to keep out the cold after the press conference.
“A lot of problems were exposed in this special week. It seems that it is still quite difficult to compete with these top horse girls. We still need to strengthen our training in the future… However, this is a long-distance race, what about the middle-distance race?”
Okino Mitsuji came over from not far away, leaned against the wall like him, and said, “This time the Spring Shield was taken down by you again, and you got two of them at once. It feels so good.”
“But the recent continuous heavy rains have made the upcoming games less optimistic. The cherry blossom viewing event will be most affected. How is Mejiro Dober’s training going?”
Rolling her eyes, Higashino Chihiro said, “We have trained before, but it is still necessary to continue the training in bad weather. It will rain in the next few days, and I don’t know if it will rain on the day of the cherry blossom viewing…
But it is definitely a bad place, and we need to train Mejiro Dober well to minimize the impact of the bad place.”
If it continues to rain, the ground at McQueen’s Gaoyue Sho might also be wet… So in the next few days, he will conduct intensive training on wet ground for these two horse girls.
Okino Koji shrugged. It was up to Chihiro Tono to decide. “Will Manchester City Tea House have any more games next?”
“It depends on her own opinion, and we also need to look at the competition arrangements in Europe.”
Since I have already decided to participate in this year’s Arc de Triomphe, a very key point is that if I want to participate, I must obtain a certain number of points.
Manchester City has not participated in any international competitions yet, so points have to be earned from scratch.
However, one comparative advantage is that she has performed very well in Japan. Including this Spring Emperor Award, she has won a total of three G1 victories. This allows her to directly participate in the G2 competition in Europe. As long as she gets good results, she can participate in the G1 and get a ticket to the Arc de Triomphe.
“Then you should have asked her to prepare earlier. I heard you say that she would go in July, right? That’s too late. If she goes, she needs to win at least two G2s and two G1s without interruption to have a chance of qualifying for the Arc de Triomphe.”
“Going earlier will not only allow her to get familiar with the environment, but also allow her to not be so anxious to participate in the competition. She will have enough time to adjust her physical condition and challenge the Arc de Triomphe in the best possible manner.”
In the past, there were members of Okino Koji’s team who had challenged the Arc de Triomphe Award… Although he didn’t win in the end, he definitely knew more about it than I did…
Other situations on the side.
“Okay, I understand. I will discuss this matter with the tea room.”
After Tebi Zhou came out of the lounge, Mitsuji Okino took her away, leaving Higashino Chihiro alone waiting for Mi Yu and Manchester City Tea House to come out.
“Trainer, we’re done.”
Looking at the two horse girls who had changed into dry clothes, Higashino Chihiro nodded, “Then let’s go to the press conference first. After it’s over, you can drink some hot ginger water…”
After the winner’s stage ended and everyone returned to the academy, Chihiro Higashino began to ask seniors such as Tojo Hana and Kuronuma about their opinions on the European arena.
After the training the next day, he discussed this issue with Manchester City Tea House, and with the advice of some of his predecessors, Higashino Chihiro and Manchester City Tea House finally decided to leave Japan by plane in May this year and head to Europe to prepare to participate in the Arc de Triomphe in October this year.
It is now mid-April, and there are still two weeks before departure… During this period, all Chihiro Higashino can do is to help Manchester City team develop a training plan in Europe.
The plan was mainly based on the suggestions given by his predecessors, as well as his own understanding of European pastures and Manchester City Tea House.
When going to the European arena, the competition of strength becomes particularly important. Fortunately, although Manchester City’s players are relatively petite, they are not as strong as Daishin Narita and Mi Yu. Their strength is also quite good, so they will not be at a disadvantage on the court.
“If I remember correctly, Bide Shijiu should be mainly active in England and France. When I go to Europe, I can ask Bide Shijiu to help take care of the Manchester City Tea House…”
Chapter 147: The First Crown
Just as the weather forecast predicted, it rained heavily for several days after the Spring Emperor’s Viewing.
But the only good thing is that the rain is much lighter in the afternoon, which is just right for training.
Therefore, during this period of time, not only Dober and Mejiro McQueen, who are about to participate in the Sakura Viewing or Gaoyue Viewing, but other horse racing girls are also training in this aspect.
“Adding lead weights and such bad ground requires a lot of physical strength and energy.”
Tamamo Cross sat on a chair, looking at everyone on the training ground, covered in mud, and said:
“I haven’t participated in the mile race that Dober is going to participate in, but I think McQueen has enough physical strength. It would be better to strengthen the explosive power of the last three waves, right?”
“McQueen’s explosive power has reached a bottleneck at this stage, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough… Now this can not only train her to control the ground and power, but also strengthen her physical strength, so that she can sprint earlier.”
Higashino Chihiro bent down and brushed off the dirt splashed by Oguri from her pants, saying, “This can be considered as a disguised way of improving her explosive power. Waiting for her explosive breakthrough, this will be a big leap forward.”
Speed, physical strength, and explosive power are the three keys to victory for horse racing girls… In comparison, willpower and on-the-spot judgment in the arena can only be considered a plus.
Therefore, during training, the focus is mostly on the first three items.
“The day after tomorrow is the day for cherry blossom viewing. I hope it won’t rain…”
Although everyone’s conditions are the same regardless of whether it rains or not, and no one is more relaxed than anyone else…
But the absence of rain can ultimately allow the horse racing ladies to display their strength to a greater extent.
Chihiro Higashino has absolute faith in the strength of Mejiro Dobo. He believes that with his hard power, Dobo is also capable of defeating Kyoei Sanyue, winning the crown of the Sakura Festival and becoming the new queen of the Sakura Festival.
On the day of cherry blossom viewing, although the sky was not clear, it was not cloudy either, which was good news.
However, due to a light rain yesterday afternoon… the ground is still a mess now, but it is undoubtedly much better than the situation during the spring imperial reward.
“Now on stage is the most popular player, Mejiro Dober. Her beautiful pursuit at the Tulip Awards won her the championship. Can she recreate the scene today?”
Picking up the cloak from the ground, Mejiro Dober turned back to the passage and entered the arena from another entrance.
“Dober, I won’t let you catch up with me today.”
Mejiro Dober turned around, looked at Kyoei Sanyue, and smiled, “Sorry, my goal is to win three championships without losing. Today’s cherry blossom viewing is just the beginning.”
Xie Rong Sanyue was stunned when he heard it, and then laughed: “Undefeated three championships…you guys, you really dare to say that.”
The undefeated Mares Triple Crown, currently no horse girl in Japan can achieve it…so this is the dream of almost all horse racing girls who participate in the Mares Triple Crown.
The same goes for Kyoei Sanyue herself. She had previously dreamed of winning the Triple Crown of Undefeated Mares…but after losing to Mejiro Doberman in the Tulip Trophy, this wish was shattered.
This did not disappoint her too much. After all, no one had ever achieved it before, and she was able to accept it quickly.
Readjusted the goal and set it on the triple crown.
“But I won’t let you win, because I’m the one who’s going to be the horse girl who wins the Triple Crown.”
“Then do well on the field
Let’s compare them!”
The two looked at each other and smiled before parting ways, each doing their final warm-up before the game.
When the time was almost up, the staff pushed the gate onto the pasture… The most popular person, Mejiro Dobo, entered first, followed by the second most popular person, Kyoei Sanyue.
“The race started and the horse racing ladies rushed out of the gate together without any mistakes.”
After rushing out of the gate, the horses all began to move towards the inner lane at the same time, and the competition for position was particularly fierce at this time.
Mejiro Dobo firmly controlled his position in the seventh place at this time. He looked through the many horse girls in front of him and accurately found Xie Rong Sanyue who had already reached the leading position.
“I’m very experienced in leading the way, I won’t let you escape, March…”
Chihiro Higashino looked at the position of Dobo Mejiro and nodded from time to time.
Mejiro Dobo didn’t care much about where she was… In her eyes, the only person she was staring at was Kyoei Sanyue. Everything she did now… was to prevent Kyoei Sanyue from getting too far away from her.
“McQueen, you need to learn more from Dober. Her attention is mainly focused on Xie Rong Sanyue, but she can still ensure that she does not commit a foul. You need to practice more.”
“I know. I will practice more…”
The problems exposed in the previous relay race were still being talked about by the trainer, which made Mejiro McQueen feel very embarrassed… and she couldn’t say much because this was indeed a mistake she had made.
Later, the trainer even tried it out and finally figured out her problem…
So she has been practicing on this issue during this period, and she wants to complete it as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, even if the game is won, there will be a decline.
“Coming to the second bend, Mejiro Doba is already in third place, and she starts to speed up! At this time, Kyoei Sanyue is about four lengths ahead of her. Can Mejiro Doba catch up?”
“Mejiro Tabo is closing in on him. What a powerful last step! There are only 200 meters left to the finish line, and there is still a gap of two lengths between Mejiro Tabo and Kyoei Sanyue!”
Mejiro Dobo looked at Xierong Sanyue in front of her. She wanted to surpass the past. She could surpass the past, and she would definitely surpass the past!
“The Mares Triple Crown is not only my dream, but also Qianxun’s expectation… I don’t want to let him down. No matter what, I will definitely win this race!”
Everyone has a reason why they cannot lose, but today, the person who cannot lose, the person who will never lose, must be her, Mubai Duobo!
“Mejiro Tabo is catching up. Is this the backbone of the Mejiro horse girl? Mejiro Tabo is catching up with Kyoei Sanyue. The two horse girls are running parallel!”
“GOALING!”
Seeing her successfully cross the finish line, Xie shouted with relief: “A new queen of cherry blossom viewing has been born! She is Mejiro Dober!”
Chapter 148: Obsession with Victory
“Mejiro Dobo has successfully won the Sakura Festival! Can she reproduce the record set by Mejiro Kogen? Can she surpass the record left by Mejiro Kogen? Let’s wait and see!”
After Mejiro Tawara won the Sakura Shooting Award, the audience’s reaction was a little different from when he won the Sakura Shooting Award in the previous match. Everyone became more excited and expected to see Mejiro Tawara create a new legend.
Maybe it’s just because Mejiro Tabei is a horse girl from the Mejiro family. It’s normal that the horse girl from the famous Mejiro family would be more popular compared to the beautiful poses when her identity was hidden.
And now more and more people are paying attention to horse racing and falling in love with this sport… It is understandable that they want to witness the birth of a milestone achievement.
“He’s covered in mud, what a mess.”
Higashino Chihiro reached out and wiped off the dirt that had accidentally stained Mejiro Tabo’s hair. She patted Mejiro Tabo’s shoulder with great satisfaction and said, “Your performance this time was very good. The final sprint can be said to be a perfect performance.”
“not enough.”
Mejiro Dober looked at Higashino Chihiro seriously and said, “If I want to win the triple crown, it’s not enough just to do this. I have to work harder and improve my performance even higher.”
In this Gaoyue Sho, she only narrowly defeated Kyoei Sanyue by a margin of one head. Just that little bit short, the triple crown would say goodbye to her forever at the Sakura Sho.
“March will definitely become stronger during the Oaks Tournament… I am not sure I can beat her with my current level. I need to practice harder. I must win all the Mares Triple Crowns!”
Higashino Chihiro stared at Mejiro Dober’s determined eyes… It can be said that the triple crown has almost become her obsession. In order to achieve this obsession, even if she has to make more efforts and hardships, it is definitely worth it…
“Don’t let this goal become a constraint on your progress. Let it be your motivation. You are a little too extreme now. You may not perform well in the Oaks Tournament.”
After tapping Mejiro Dober’s head, Higashino Chihiro rubbed his temple and said, “It seems that I need to give you some additional instruction, but that will have to wait until later… Now, go wash up and change your clothes.”
As for Mejiro Dober’s emphasis on the Triple Crown, Dong…
Ye Qianxun felt very relieved, but at the same time, this approach also had its disadvantages.
That is, it is easy for Dober to become impatient, and then during the race, he will make mistakes in judgment, resulting in the wrong timing of acceleration, which will lead to deviations in results.
These have been clearly seen in repeated parallel training.
Mejiro Dober herself is a horse racing girl who is not very calm. Unlike her cold temperament, she often becomes impatient during the competition. The main reason for this emotion is Dober’s own lack of self-confidence.
Although the impact of what happened in childhood has become vague after such a long time, the traces left are deeply rooted and very difficult to erase.
Mejiro Dober is not affected by the sight and sound of the audience now…but her desire for victory is so strong that it has reached a paranoid state.
She thought that the cheers and gazes now were all looking forward to her victory, believing in her victory…
Once she loses, the voices will turn into ridicule and the gazes will turn into pity. This is what she fears the most.
So she told herself that she could only win, and she had to keep winning, just like her senior Maruzenski, just keep winning all the way.
This is why Chihiro Higashino said that Mejiro Taboro was a bit extreme.
It wouldn’t be a big deal if she could really keep winning until she won three championships…but if she loses halfway, she might never recover.
Oak Tree Competition, Autumn Flower Award, even Higashino Chihiro dare not say that Dober can win for sure, he can only say that the chance of winning is very high, so this problem needs to be solved as soon as possible.
“Now that the big problems have been solved, we need to hurry up and clean up these remaining small problems.”
However, Chihiro Higashino is still very confident in Dober Mejiro. He believes that Dober can figure out such a problem before the Oaks Tournament and transform into a more perfect Dober Mejiro.
Compared to Mejiro Doberman, there is nothing else for Chihiro Higashino to worry about Mejiro McQueen, except for the technical problem of preventing other horse girls from overtaking.
The weather forecast for the next two days until the Gaoyue Sang is sunny… If the forecast is correct, the Gaoyue Sang competition venue will not be a bad place.
Mejiro McQueen’s strength can also be brought into play to the best of its ability.
“Why haven’t I seen Dob in the past two days?”
