[Blossom in Learning] Sakura Bakushin O – best stats

Bakushin specializes in short distances, such as Sprint and Mile races, making Speed and Power the two most vital stats for her career. A high top speed is always important and the shorter distances make it crucial to have enough Power to not only reach it quickly, but also break out of any packs attempting to block the way.

Wit is another important consideration, as it has several useful effects. In this case, triggering Skills and responsibly managing Stamina will be crucial, since these effects will save you from having to invest a lot into Stamina training, giving you more time to work on Speed and Power.

As a general tip for Bakushin, you’ll want to ensure that the legacies from Veteran Umamusume upgrade her Mile Aptitude to A — this will be immensely helpful for her career.
