Umamusume: Pretty Derby Character (Trainee) Tier List

You cannot judge a Trainee in Umamusume: Pretty Derby by rarity or base stats alone. The same Trainee can perform very differently in Sprint, Mile, Medium, Long, Dirt, Team Trials, and Champions Meeting. Running Style, Unique Skills, effective acceleration, Support Decks, Legacy Umamusume, and the specific racecourse can all change the result.

This guide covers the playable Trainee variants currently released on Global. The newest Trainee is Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author]. The current Career Scenario is Our Grand Concert, and this guide covers the latest Trainee ratings, the current Sagittarius Cup (CM20), Team Trials tier lists by distance, and Training Ease.

Once you've picked the Trainee you want to build, don't let a lack of resources slow you down. You can top up Uma Musume on GamsGo to get Carats ready for upcoming Scouts and Career runs. Before you top up, make sure the product is for the Global server.

Current Champions Meeting Tier List: Sagittarius Cup CM20

The current Champions Meeting is Sagittarius Cup (CM20), held at Nakayama on Turf over 2,500m (Long). The late-race phase begins on the backstretch, with a corner shortly afterward. Timely acceleration, sufficient Stamina, and mid-race positioning are important, so the previous Scorpio Cup rankings no longer apply.

Front Runners and End Closers have strong options for this course. Pace Chasers and Late Surgers generally need more careful acceleration and positioning setups. The rankings below highlight competitive choices for CM20, not an Overall Tier List. They are pre-event assessments and may change after race results become available.

This Overall table is an account-wide reference rather than a strict 1-to-108 power ranking. For example, Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting] is rated A Overall for her Dirt value, while Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet] is rated A Overall and is a strong option for Sagittarius Cup CM20. Always use the distance-specific Team Trials and current Champions Meeting rankings when preparing for a particular race.

Upcoming Global Trainee: Narita Brian [Ravenous Wolf]

Narita Brian [Ravenous Wolf] is scheduled to join the Global server on October 14, 2026 (UTC) as a new 3-star Trainee. This alternate version focuses on Long-distance Pace Chaser racing, combining late-race acceleration with powerful velocity skills.

She is not included in the released-character Overall Tier List yet. The ratings below are preliminary estimates based on her announced kit and existing Long-distance strategies.

Narita Brian [Ravenous Wolf] – Skills and Preliminary Tier Placement
	3-Star Trainee Release: October 14, 2026 (UTC) Best Role: Long / Pace Chaser Aptitudes: Turf A / Medium A / Long A / Pace A / Late A Growth: Speed +10% / Stamina +10% / Guts +10%
Unique Skill and Potential Skills
Unique Skill	Free from the Ashes: Boosts velocity in the latter half of the final corner when near the front. The effect becomes much stronger in Long races after a mid-race challenge.
Lv.2 – Deep Breaths	Slightly recovers endurance mid-race. Long races only.
Lv.3 – Hot Pursuit	Gold velocity skill. Boosts speed when attempting to pass another runner in the second half. Pace / Late.
Lv.4 – All Set	Moderately recovers endurance early in mid-race if she did not start late. Pace / Long.
Lv.5 – Beast Mode	Gold acceleration skill. Activates late-race if she was leading or within four lengths of the leader just before late-race. Pace / Long.
Preliminary Tier Placement
Overall Tier	A Tier – Strong Long-distance specialist.
CM20	A Tier – Competitive Long Pace Chaser; acceleration depends on positioning.
Team Trials	Long: A / Medium: B
Training Ease	B Tier – Long-distance Career goals require sufficient Stamina.

Should you save for Ravenous Wolf Narita Brian? She is a strong option if you want to build a competitive Long-distance Pace Chaser. Beast Mode provides valuable acceleration without needing to obtain the Gold Skill from a Support Card. However, her best results depend on maintaining the right position before late-race and having enough Stamina to finish strongly.

These placements are pre-release predictions. We will reassess her Overall, CM20, Team Trials, and Training Ease tiers after she becomes available on the Global server.

Latest Global Trainee: Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author]

The newest Trainee currently released on Global is Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author], who debuted on October 7, 2026 (UTC). She has A aptitude in both Medium and Long Turf races, with Pace Chaser and Late Surger also at A. Her strongest built-in skills favor Pace Chaser, but her performance depends on using the right distance-specific skills and acceleration setup.

New Trainee Placement

Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author]

Overall: B | Training Ease: B | TT Medium: B | CM20: B Why Is She B Overall and B for CM20? Zenno Rob Roy has suitable Long-distance aptitude and the Gold Recovery Skill Race Planner, but her other Gold Skill, Refraction Arc, only works in Medium races. She also lacks a built-in, reliable acceleration option for Nakayama 2,500m. That limits her CM20 ceiling, despite her useful recovery and flexible Turf aptitude.

Zenno Rob Roy starts with Medium A and Long A, plus A aptitude in both Pace Chaser and Late Surger. Her Stamina +10% and Wit +20% Growth Rates support longer races and skill activation, but the lack of a Speed Growth Rate can make high-Speed builds more demanding. Her Career objectives also include Long-distance races such as the Kikuka Sho and Tenno Sho (Spring).

Her Unique Skill, Raise My Soul's Blade!, increases velocity with 400m remaining when she is positioned near the front. It becomes stronger in a major race if she is among the favorites. Because it is a velocity skill rather than immediate acceleration, it cannot replace a reliable early late-race acceleration skill for Sagittarius Cup CM20.

Race Planner gives Pace Chasers a Gold Recovery option, while Refraction Arc increases corner velocity only in Medium races. She also has Long Straightaways ○ among her awakening skills. This mix makes her more straightforward to use in Medium races, whereas Long-distance Champions Meeting builds require additional inherited acceleration and mid-race velocity skills.

Takeaway: Zenno Rob Roy is a workable Medium Pace Chaser and a conditional Long-distance choice, but not a must-pull for Sagittarius Cup CM20. Prioritize suitable acceleration, recovery, and Speed training before treating Long A as enough on its own.

Best Uma Musume for Team Trials by Distance

Team Trials is not just about a Trainee's theoretical ceiling. Scores also depend on race placement and skill activations, so Unique Skill consistency, the number of skills you can trigger, Running Style, and race position all affect actual performance.

The sections below rank Sprint, Mile, Medium, Long, and Dirt separately from S to C Tier, so players with different rosters can find practical Team Trials options. Updated for October 2026, they include the latest Global Trainees. Dirt races in Team Trials always use Mile distances, and no two outfits of the same Umamusume can occupy separate slots in one team.

Team Trials Sprint Tier List

Sprint places more weight on Speed, Power, and reliable activation of Sprint skills. Aston Machan is a standout Sprint pick for Team Trials right now. If you do not have her, Taiki Shuttle, Curren Chan, Nishino Flower, Sakura Bakushin O, and Hishi Akebono are all practical alternatives.

S	Aston Machan [Flare] Taiki Shuttle [Bubblegum☆Memories] Nishino Flower [Layered Petals] Curren Chan [Ma Chérie of the New Moon] King Halo [Cheerleader in Noble White]
A	Taiki Shuttle [Wild Frontier] Curren Chan [Fille Éclair] Seeking the Pearl [Rocket☆Star] Hishi Akebono [Buono☆Alla Moda] Sakura Bakushin O [Blossom in Learning] Bamboo Memory [Iron Ambition]
B	King Halo [King of Emeralds] Fuji Kiseki [Succès Étoilé] Yamanin Zephyr [Fluttertail Spirit] Hishi Amazon [Azure Amazon] Maruzensky [Hot☆Summer Night] Fuji Kiseki [Shooting Star Revue]
C	Air Groove [Quercus Civilis] Air Groove [Empress Road] Maruzensky [Formula R]

Team Trials Mile Tier List

Mile has a much deeper pool of viable Trainees. Prioritize Trainees with starting Mile A aptitude, reliable Unique Skill conditions, and skill pools that are easy to fill out. If you do not have an S-Tier option, Vodka, Daiwa Scarlet, Grass Wonder, Fuji Kiseki, and Yamanin Zephyr are all realistic alternatives. Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae] is another B-tier choice, but her Unique Skill depends on downhill sections and benefits especially from Tokyo Racecourse.

S	Taiki Shuttle [Wild Frontier] Taiki Shuttle [Bubblegum☆Memories] Oguri Cap [Starlight Beat] Nishino Flower [Layered Petals] Maruzensky [Hot☆Summer Night] Seeking the Pearl [Rocket☆Star]
A	Vodka [Wild Top Gear] Daiwa Scarlet [Peak Blue] Grass Wonder [Saintly Jade Cleric] Yamanin Zephyr [Fluttertail Spirit] Fuji Kiseki [Succès Étoilé] Agnes Digital [Full-Color Fangirling] Silence Suzuka [Innocent Silence] Seiun Sky [Soirée des Chatons]
B	Grass Wonder [Stone-Piercing Blue] Fuji Kiseki [Shooting Star Revue] Gold City [Authentic / 1928] Gold City [Autumn Cosmos] El Condor Pasa [El☆Número 1] El Condor Pasa [Kukulkan Warrior] Air Groove [Empress Road] Hishi Amazon [Azure Amazon] Fine Motion [Titania] Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae]
C	Sakura Bakushin O [Blossom in Learning] Aston Machan [Flare] King Halo [King of Emeralds] Air Groove [Quercus Civilis] Curren Chan [Fille Éclair]

Team Trials Medium Tier List

Medium has the deepest roster. Gold Ship [RUN! RUIN! LAUNCHER!] has extra value in Team Trials because her Unique Skill can trigger Rare Skills. Oguri Cap [Ashen Miracle], Tamamo Cross [Raging Thunder], Fine Motion, and Meisho Doto are also strong options. If you do not have them, many standard Medium trainees can still fill the slot reliably. The newly released Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet], Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae], and Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author] are B-tier alternatives for this category. Zenno Rob Roy can use Refraction Arc in Medium races, while Christmas Vodka is more course-dependent.

S	Oguri Cap [Ashen Miracle] Tamamo Cross [Raging Thunder] Gold Ship [RUN! RUIN! LAUNCHER!] Fine Motion [Titania] Meisho Doto [Dot-o'-Lantern] Kitasan Black [Gilded Shrine to Glory]
A	Nakayama Festa [Desperate Measures] Oguri Cap [Starlight Beat] Fine Motion [Noble Seamair] Meisho Doto [Turbulent Blue] Ines Fujin [Always Electrifying] Mihono Bourbon [CODE: ICING] Seiun Sky [Reeling in the Big One] Special Week [Ruler of Japan] Daiwa Scarlet [Peak Blue] Agnes Tachyon [tach-nology]
B	Tokai Teio [Beyond the Horizon] Tokai Teio [Peak Joy] Special Week [Special Dreamer] Special Week [Hopp'n♪Happy Heart] Eishin Flash [Meisterschaft] Eishin Flash [Precise Chocolatier] Symboli Rudolf [Emperor's Path] Symboli Rudolf [Archer by Moonlight] Narita Brian [Maverick] Mejiro Ardan [Crystalline] Tosen Jordan [Jokester☆Vibes] Yaeno Muteki [Blazed Head, Covered Fists] Winning Ticket [Dream Deliverer] Nice Nature [Poinsettia Ribbon] Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet] Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae] Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author]
C	Mejiro Ryan [Down the Line] Winning Ticket [Get to Winning!] Nice Nature [Run & Win] Rice Shower [Rosy Dreams] Air Groove [Quercus Civilis] Matikanefukukitaru [Rising☆Fortune]

Team Trials Long Tier List

Long races require more than just Speed. You also need enough Stamina and reliable recovery. Trainees with built-in recovery or strong Long-distance skill kits are easier to score consistently with, making Super Creek, Manhattan Cafe, Kitasan Black, Gold Ship, and Mejiro Bright solid long-term choices. Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet] joins A Tier as a Long Front Runner with 20% Speed Growth, while Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author] is a B-tier Pace Chaser option with Race Planner recovery but no built-in, universally reliable Long-distance acceleration.

S	Gold Ship [RUN! RUIN! LAUNCHER!] Kitasan Black [Gilded Shrine to Glory] Manhattan Cafe [Creeping Shadow] Narita Taishin [Nevertheless] Mejiro Bright [Brunissage Line] Tamamo Cross [Raging Thunder] Super Creek [Murmuring Stream]

C	Matikanetannhauser [Clippety-Tippety-Clop] Matikanefukukitaru [Lucky Tidings] Rice Shower [Rosy Dreams] Nice Nature [Run & Win] Tokai Teio [Beyond the Horizon]

Team Trials Dirt Tier List

Dirt has the smallest pool of Trainees with strong starting aptitude, and Team Trials Dirt races are always Mile. Smart Falcon, Copano Rickey, Agnes Digital, and Inari One remain reliable choices because of their Dirt-focused skills. Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting] joins A Tier with Dirt A, Mile A, and Pace Chaser A, though Never Say Never has a position requirement and its stronger effect is conditional.

If you lack a specialist, Oguri Cap, Haru Urara, El Condor Pasa, and Taiki Shuttle can fill Dirt slots with suitable builds. C Tier includes characters that generally need significant Dirt aptitude inheritance and should not be the first priority for a newer roster.

S	Smart Falcon [Twilight Triumph]  Copano Rickey [Eightfold☆Fortune]  Agnes Digital [Full-Color Fangirling]  Inari One [Golden Dream]
A	Smart Falcon [LOVE☆4EVER]  Inari One [Edomurasaki]  Oguri Cap [Starlight Beat]  Oguri Cap [Ashen Miracle]  Agnes Digital [Fanatic♡Jiangshi]  Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting]
B	Haru Urara [New Year ♪ New Urara!]  Haru Urara [Bestest Prize ♪]  El Condor Pasa [El☆Número 1]  El Condor Pasa [Kukulkan Warrior]  Taiki Shuttle [Wild Frontier]  Taiki Shuttle [Bubblegum☆Memories]
C	Yamanin Zephyr [Fluttertail Spirit]  Mayano Top Gun [Scramble☆Zone]  Mayano Top Gun [Sunlight Bouquet]

Practical Team-Building Tip: Each category ultimately uses three Veteran Umamusume. Pick complementary Running Styles when possible to earn Good Positioning bonuses, and remember that two outfits of the same Umamusume cannot be used on one team. Prioritize high starting aptitude, skills that activate consistently, and sufficient Stamina for the race distance.

Training Ease Tier List: Our Grand Concert

Training Ease is not a measure of raw character strength. It reflects how consistently a Trainee can be trained in the current Our Grand Concert scenario. The main factors are starting distance and Running Style Aptitudes, how focused the Career goals are, Growth Rates, access to key skills, and whether the build depends heavily on Sparks or a specific Support Deck.

We also include B and C tiers so players with smaller rosters can judge how difficult their current Trainees are to train. A lower tier does not mean a Trainee is unusable. It usually means the build needs more inheritance support, tighter training planning, or stronger Support Cards.

The October 2026 update adds Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting], Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet], Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae], and Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author] to this Training Ease ranking. These placements describe how manageable their Career training is, not their Overall or CM20 power.

S	Sakura Bakushin O [Blossom in Learning] Oguri Cap [Starlight Beat] Taiki Shuttle [Wild Frontier] Curren Chan [Fille Éclair] Silence Suzuka [Innocent Silence] Agnes Tachyon [tach-nology] Daiwa Scarlet [Peak Blue]
A	Super Creek [Murmuring Stream] Smart Falcon [LOVE☆4EVER] Maruzensky [Formula R] Gold Ship [Red Strife] Special Week [Special Dreamer] Tokai Teio [Peak Joy] Nakayama Festa [Desperate Measures] Vodka [Wild Top Gear] Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting] Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet] Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae]
B	King Halo [King of Emeralds] Grass Wonder [Stone-Piercing Blue] El Condor Pasa [El☆Número 1] Mayano Top Gun [Scramble☆Zone] Mejiro McQueen [Frontline Elegance] Nice Nature [Run & Win] Rice Shower [Rosy Dreams] Haru Urara [Bestest Prize ♪] Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author]
C	Matikanefukukitaru [Rising☆Fortune] Winning Ticket [Get to Winning!] Mejiro Ryan [Down the Line] Hishi Amazon [Azure Amazon] Air Groove [Empress Road] Bamboo Memory [Iron Ambition]

Sakura Bakushin O, Taiki Shuttle, and Curren Chan have fairly focused distance goals, making it easier to build solid Veteran Umamusume quickly. Oguri Cap is especially flexible because she covers both Mile and Medium well.

Nakayama Festa is placed in A because Medium A, Pace Chaser A, Late Surger A, and 10% Growth Rates in Speed, Stamina, and Power make her relatively straightforward to train. Her skill value, however, depends more on specific conditions than that of the most consistent specialists.

Wonder Acute [Butterfly Sting] (A) begins with Dirt A, Mile A, Medium A, and Pace Chaser A, which cover her main Career routes without needing major Aptitude changes. Her Guts +15% and Wit +15% Growth Rates are useful for training consistency, although strong Speed and Power results still depend on the Support Deck. Daiwa Scarlet [Nuit Étoilée de Scarlet] (A) starts with Medium A, Long A, Front Runner A, and Pace Chaser A. Speed +20% and Wit +10% make her efficient to train, but her Long-distance Career races still require sufficient Stamina.

Vodka [Fiery Aqua Vitae] (A) combines Mile A, Medium A, and Late Surger A with Speed +20% and Guts +10%, making her main race goals manageable without extensive inheritance. Zenno Rob Roy [Heroic Author] (B) has useful Medium A, Long A, Pace Chaser A, and Late Surger A, plus Stamina +10% and Wit +20%. However, Career goals such as the Kikuka Sho and Tenno Sho (Spring) demand a more balanced Stamina and Speed plan, especially without a Speed Growth bonus.

How We Rank Uma Musume Characters

A Trainee's strength changes depending on where you use her. She may be consistent in Team Trials but still be a poor fit for the current Champions Meeting. Another Trainee may have a lower Overall rating yet still be excellent on a specific distance or racecourse.

For that reason, this guide rates Trainees separately across Overall, Training Ease, Team Trials, and the current Champions Meeting. Check the mode you are preparing for first, then use the matching Tier List.

Training Ease ratings are based on the current Global Our Grand Concert environment. This rating looks beyond raw strength and also considers starting Aptitudes, Career objectives, Growth Rates, access to key skills, and Support Deck requirements.

S, A, B, and C only show priority within the specific mode or use case. A Trainee rated B Overall can still perform at A or even S Tier in the right Team Trials distance or a specific Champions Meeting.

Note: Trainees within the same tier are not ranked from left to right. They are listed mainly by English name for easier lookup. For actual team building, prioritize the relevant Team Trials distance, current CM, and Training Ease ratings.

Uma Musume Reroll Tier List: Support Cards First

For a new account, rerolling should not focus only on Trainees. Support Cards directly affect training efficiency, Skill Points, access to key Rare Skills, and the final stat ceiling of your Veteran Umamusume, so they often have more long-term account value than pulling a single strong Trainee.

In the current Our Grand Concert scenario, Light Hello has very high scenario-specific value, but much of that value is tied to this scenario. Versatile cards such as Kitasan Black and Fine Motion retain their value more easily across scenarios, so the best card right now is not always the best long-term reroll target.

If you simply want to start quickly with a specific Trainee, you can also browse Uma Musume Accounts. Before buying, make sure the account is for the Global server and review its SSR Support Cards, Trainees, and available resources.

Uma Musume Tier List Update History

Conclusion

Uma Musume does not have one fixed ranking that works for every mode. When choosing a Trainee, start with the race or mode you are preparing for, then consider distance Aptitude, Running Style, skill activation, and training difficulty. 

For the current Sagittarius Cup CM20, follow the Nakayama 2,500m race-specific rankings instead of Training Ease alone. Team Trials favors consistent long-term scoring, while Training Ease helps you judge how straightforward a Trainee is to build in Our Grand Concert.

FAQ

Why Is My Unique Skill Not Activating?

Check the skill's activation conditions first, including the required Running Style, race phase, position, and any distance restrictions. Even with high stats, a Unique Skill may not activate if your Trainee fails to meet its conditions at the right moment. Skills with strict positioning requirements are generally less reliable in Team Trials.

Why Does My High-Rated Uma Score Poorly in Team Trials?

A high Rating does not guarantee a high Team Trials score. Points depend on race placement, skill activations, Unique Skill reliability, Good Positioning bonuses, and opponent strength. Check whether your Trainee has enough Stamina and consistently activates multiple skills. A slightly lower-rated Uma with reliable skills can sometimes score better.

How Do I Raise an Aptitude from B or C to A?

Use Parents and Grandparents with matching Pink Sparks. Raising an Aptitude from B to A requires at least 1 matching Pink Spark star, while C to A requires at least 4 stars in total. Initial inheritance can raise Aptitudes up to A, but reaching S requires a matching Pink Spark to activate during an Inspiration Event in the Classic or Senior Year.

How Should I Build a Team Trials Team?

For each distance, aim to use three Veteran Umamusume with different Running Styles to improve your chances of earning Good Positioning bonuses. Prioritize suitable distance and surface Aptitudes, reliable Unique Skills, consistent skill activation, and enough Stamina. Balance your team around both race placement and scoring consistency, rather than choosing Trainees based on Rating alone.
