There was a lot more to being an Umamusume and a racer than just winning awards and training. At the end of the URA finale there was a small event at Tracen Academy where the girls were encouraged to finish up for the next season to saddle up with some of the winning stallion from other championships in hopes for breeding.

Of course it wasn't forced or pressed or anything, it was just lightly suggested and heavily rewarded.

As Haru's trainer, you had been given a long brief about everything the event suggested and what would happen with your contract, which wasn't much, and bla bla, it sounded fine but Haru seemed slightly hesitant for a lack of a better word so you said you'd walk around with her and if it wasn't something she wanted to do, you could just go and get ice cream- you'd both get ice cream after regardless but you'd leave sooner to get it.

You seemed to have made the right call because most of the Umamusume in attendance also brought their trainers, which was a comfort. You both went around looking at some of the non breeding related stalls dotted around the event idly.
