Races held at Nakayama, Tokyo, Kyoto, or Hanshin are called "Central," while those held at Sapporo, Hakodate, Niigata, Fukushima, or Kokura are called "Local." Chukyo was originally designed as a local racecourse, but in recent years, it has sometimes been included in the central category. The term can also refer to the Twinkle Series itself.] [To challenge a runner during a race means to attempt to pass her from behind, especially during the final stretch. If the challenged runner maintains her lead, she is said to have "held off" or "turned back" the challenge.] [The distinctive crescent-shaped metal supports attached to Umamusume racing shoes. By reinforcing the soles of the shoes, they lighten the load on the legs and allow the feet to tread firmly on the ground when running. Since these cleats greatly affect performance, runners maintain them diligently. Cleats are carefully crafted by artisans called cleatmakers, and some Umamusume are even said to use one-of-a-kind custom cleat designs.] Officially called Trainer, but English fans gradually adopted 'Coach' as a more informal term.

A sign that reads "2" means there are 200 meters left, not two furlongs (400 meters).] [All races aside from Make Debut and Maiden races can be classified into one of five ranks according to prestige. From highest to lowest, these are G1, G2, G3, OP (Open), and Pre-OP (Pre-Open). Runners generally begin their careers in OP and Pre-OP races before working their way up to G3 and G2s, and eventually aiming for victory at the G1 level.] [Two G1 races where the field is decided by popular vote: the Arima Kinen in late December and Takarazuka Kinen in late June.

Requires the successful completion of an exam administered by the URA, upon which one receives a trainer's license and badge. Trainers spend their days offering support, encouragement, and sometimes a shoulder to cry on to their trainees as they strive for glory in the Twinkle Series. Trainers lead a team of Umamusume who have signed on with them. Each team needs one full-time trainer, who may be assisted by one or more assistant trainers. Many newer trainers choose to gain experience by acting as assistant trainer under a seasoned trainer. Those wishing to train runners in central races generally sign a contract with Tracen Academy, which then becomes their place of employment. Trainers may also find work in smaller clubs across the country training young Umamusume or regional racers. [The racecourse at Tracen Academy where students practice.
