When Anjing Zhen looked toward the Paddock, another Horse Girl emerged behind Mejiro Komei on the screen facing the stands.
She had long dark-brown hair and violet eyes. Her temperament differed from Mejiro Komei's, seeming somewhat aloof, though her features bore some resemblance to the latter's.
After approaching Mejiro Komei, the Horse Girl seemed a little helpless. She patted Mejiro Komei on the shoulder, and only then did the latter snap out of waving at the camera.

Five G1 victories, two wins in the Triple Crown for Female Horse Girls, named the year's best active Female Horse Girl for four consecutive years, one of the century's hundred greatest Horse Girls...
As Mejiro Dober's accolades were broadcast one after another, the crowd of over a hundred thousand sent up wave after wave of cheers.

"Finally! The much anticipated Summer Dream Trophy is about to begin!"
The announcer was clearly far more excited than usual. "Under the blazing August sun, these highly anticipated star Horse Girls are ready to deliver a fierce spectacle!
