In preparation for the Spring Tennoushou, Tokai Teio joins the spectators at another race, the Satsukishou. There, while watching Triple Crown hopeful Mihono Bourbon battle for first, she comes to a realization. Meanwhile, Mejiro McQueen cannot hide her frustration upon learning that the world has its money on Tokai Teio.
If I race on her terms, 
I don't stand a chance.
.إن تسابقت على طريقتها فلا فرصة أمامي
Wenn ich zu ihren Bedingungen renne,
habe ich keine Chance.
Se gareggio alle sue condizioni,
non avrò nessuna possibilità.
Não tenho como vencê-la
correndo do jeito de sempre.
Я не выиграю,
если отдам инициативу.
