Strong Start

If your Uma launches off the starting gate with less delay, you earn 1,000 points as a Strong Start bonus. Here are a few things to note regarding getting a Strong Start:

• The starting delay is random and not influenced by the base stats.
• There's a 20% chance you get a Strong Start or a Slow Start.
• You can increase these odds using Focus (green rarity skill) or Concentration (gold rarity skill).

---

Dark Horse

If your character begins as the eighth-favorite or worse, and yet finishes in the top three, you earn a whopping 4,000 points as a Dark Horse bonus. However, this is a very rare reward, and you may only see it occasionally.

---

Rushed (Kakari)

Rushing is the only thing that could decrease the points you earn. It triggers randomly when your character starts panicking or running inefficiently. A "Rushed" character first loses a flat 500 points, then loses 100 points per second while she remains in this state, which usually lasts up to 12 seconds.
