For Daiwa Scarlet's URA Finale Career, unless you have other goals, you should pick the Japanese Oaks. This race is similar to Daiwa's previous Goal races and can be won with proper training.

If you got 1st in her previous Goal race, the Oka Sho, you can get the Triple Tiara epithet. To earn the title, you need to win the Japanese Oaks and, her next Goal race, the Shuka Sho.

The other choice in Daiwa Scarlet's Her Trainee Event is to join Vodka in the Japanese Derby. This is a more difficult race because Vodka can also be a difficult opponent. Daiwa Scarlet will not have a lot of stats at that stage of her Career.

Choose this race if you to get the Triple Crown epithet for Daiwa Scarlet. To earn the title, you have to also win the Satsuki Sho and Kikuka Sho.

3★ to 9 ★ Stamina Spark

3 Star Stamina Sparks

To get the best stats for the race, it is best to have Stamina Sparks in your Trainee's Legacy Umamusume. It is an important stat for her standard builds and Daiwa Scarlet does not have any additional Growth Rate for it.

If you do not have a Veteran Umamusume with those sparks, you can borrow one from another account. Use our Friend ID Sharing Board to find the best Legacy for your Trainee.

Then, build a Support Card deck to maximize Daiwa Scarlet's Front Runner style. We recommend a Support Card deck of 4 Speed, 1 Power, and 1 Stamina. You can adjust this based on your current Support Cards and Legacies.

This Support Card build, along with Stamina Sparks via Inspiration Events, will give you a good amount of stats and possible skills by the time the Japanese Oaks/Derby happens.

Daiwa Scarlet can also be a good Pace Chaser if you have the Support Cards and Legacies for it. Her standard Support Card deck for this style is 3 Speed, 2 Power, and 1 Stamina.

Buy Skills Before the Race

Buy Skills Before Race

Before the race, you should buy skills to increase your Trainee's chances of getting 1st. After the Classic Year Inspiration Event, your Trainee will have enough Skill Points to buy one or two skills.

You should prioritize getting strong Rare Skills, those marked in yellow, like Swinging Maestro and Professor of Curvature.

To win the Triple Tiara as Daiwa Scarlet, you just need to pick Japanese Oaks and get first in the Oka Sho and Shuka Sho. This is easier to accomplish than the Triple Crown because she needs a lower minimum stamina.

To earn the Triple Crown epithet, you need to win three G1 Races: two Medium Races and one Long race.

It is a bit harder to win these races as Daiwa Scarlet because she needs a higher Long Aptitude. If you need to complete these series of races for the Mission, consider using Gold Ship (Red Strife) or other characters with an A Aptitude in Long.
