How to Train Pace Chasers



Use Speed and Stamina Support Cards

Speed Deck

Speed is the most important stat in Umamusume, so consider equipping 2-3 Speed Support Cards. As Pace Chasers uses a lot of Stamina, use Stamina cards to help boost your Stamina during training.

All Support Cards

Prioritize Speed and Stamina

Pace Chaser Training
Speed >> Stamina Power

Aside from using Speed cards, focus on leveling up your Speed training as the higher its level is, the more stats it will give.later on.

Speed is the most important stat as it determines how fast your Umamusume is and you have higher chances of winning if you have a lot of it. Do not neglect training your Stamina and Power as you will need it to maintain your position and then to finally overtake the runner on your front during the last spurt.
