"...The 2nd favorite to win, is Lady T!" A male announcer spoke over the loudspeaker, a female voice, the second announcer speaking. "No doubt about it, it's been seen over and over again at this track, that one of her best qualities is her endurance. So, I'm looking to see a good race, coming from her today." "It's true that her endurance is rather incredible, but will it be enough to tackle 1,700 meters in wet dirt? I think it'll all come down to her rivals today! An how well they perform." Walking out of the tunnel as they finished their commentarial assessment, they move onto me, the crowd erupts into cheers and shouts upon my revealing. "Speaking of Rivals, we've got someone with no shortage of rivalry's! The crowd favorite! And the favorite to win!" The male announced, the female announcer taking over, as I do not wave to anyone, I keep my head down, my blank, almost empty expression told of confliction. Approaching the start area, where others lye in wait.
"Lexington has been on a incredible winning streak this year, in fact he's never lost a single race yet, since his debut last Fall. Though, none of these races were graded. So today, will be his first Graded race. I wonder, will he be able to keep up this incredible momentum he's created?" "I'd say a better question isn't rather he can keep up, but rather will he be able to run well in the dirt in these conditions?" "Rather he can or can't, I'm confident that he's going to make tonight's race an incredible one"

"The world is always wrong."
After surviving high school with my cynical wit and a complete lack of romantic progress, I-Hikigaya Hachiman was ready to live a peaceful, uneventful life.
No youth, no drama, no forced social interaction.
That dream came to a crashing halt when I somehow woke up in a world where horse girls-yes, literal girls with horse ears and tails-race professionally while chasing their dreams.
And apparently... I'm now their trainer.
Me. The guy whose idea of teamwork is "doing everything myself to avoid dealing with people."
Special Week smiles at me like I'm her hero. Tokai Teio asks for advice like I have wisdom. Mejiro McQueen demands a training plan like I know what I'm doing.
Spoiler: I don't.
But every race pulls me deeper. Every tear, every laugh, every finish line crossed... I start to understand these girls.
Maybe... just maybe...
This world isn't as wrong as I thought.
A loner, a realist, and a former Service Club ghost becomes the heart of a new team.
This is the story of how I, Hikigaya Hachiman, became the most reluctant-and possibly the most effective-Uma Musume trainer this world has ever seen.
