If you want the best chances of winning, you should follow some of these pointers:

Dirt Track proficiency

The dirt track is never easy to compete in. If you are using a horse girl with low experience on such a track, you are setting yourself up for failure. We urge you to opt for a character who has an 'A' in dirt racing. Ensure that you use Legacy Umas to bump up their rating to 'A' prior to the race.
