## Plot

In a world very much like our own, great racehorses of the past have a chance to be reborn as "horse girls"—girls with the ears and tails of horses as well as their speed and endurance. The best of these horse girls goes to train at Tokyo's Tracen Academy, hopefully moving on to fame and fortune as both racers and idols.

### Anime

The first season features Special Week, a high school horse girl from the countryside who has just transferred to Tracen. She's determined to fulfill her promise to her mother to become the best horse girl in Japan. On her way to school, she visits the race track and instantly falls in love with Silence Suzuka's style, becoming determined to race on the same team as her.
The second season features Tokai Teio as the main character and draws focus to other side characters such as Mejiro McQueen, Rice Shower, and Mihono Bourbon. Like the horse she is based on, she suffers multiple injuries and struggles to remain one of the best racers.
The third season features both Kitasan Black and Satono Diamond as the main characters, focusing on the relationship between the two, which will end up becoming rivals on the racecourse. All while Kitasan is at odds with the crowd favorite in the racehorse Duramente.

### Video game

Part 2 of the main story features Rhein Kraft, Cesario, Air Messiah, and Daring Heart. In reality, those four horses were born in 2002 and competed in a number of races, including the Oka Sho in 2005, where they finished from first to fourth.

## Characters

Most of the horse girls are named after famous legendary Japanese racehorses and are inspired by their careers and personalities. Each horse girl wears a ribbon or other accessory on one ear (or wears a hat that tilts toward one ear); if it's on the girl's right ear, then that girl's namesake was a stallion, or if it's on the girl's left ear, then her namesake was a mare.

The doctor tells Tokai Teio that she has a leg fracture and that she will not race until the next spring before admitting her to hospital. Despite being on crutches while waiting for her leg to recover, Tokai Teio is determined to race in the Kikka Sho in November. This prompts the trainer to research on ways to support Tokai Teio's rehabilitation. Tokai Teio trains for the Kikka Sho, starting with image training, then walking slowly before jogging. Despite their best efforts; though, Tokai Teio could not fully recover for the Kikka Sho, forcing her to pull out of the race.

On the way back, Tokai Teio vows to stay undefeated which the trainer aims to fulfil. ||||||
