The commentator grew increasingly hoarse, and the stands at Kyoto Racecourse boiled over, nearly lifting the roof off. Satono Diamond surged forward like a streak of blue lightning, fast as the wind.
Mikki Rocket followed close behind, refusing to be outdone.
She gritted her teeth, her unyielding spirit radiating from every movement.
Her breathing was rapid yet powerful, every exhale seeming like a challenge thrown at her opponents.
Her feet never paused for a moment, tightly clinging to Satono Diamond ahead of her.
Gallant was also giving it her all. Her body leaned slightly forward, as though she were gathering all her strength into her legs.
Her eyes held a fierce resolve, as if telling everyone that the race was not over yet and that she would never give up easily.
Saturn Elias and Tenryu Horse were also chasing hard. Their faces were filled with unwillingness as sweat slid down their cheeks and dripped onto the track.
They constantly adjusted their rhythm, trying to find an opening to break through and overtake the runners ahead.
As for Milan Hai, although she had led for a long time, she did not relax in the slightest.
Her ears pricked slightly as she listened to the footsteps steadily closing in behind her, silently encouraging herself.
She knew that as long as she had not crossed the Finish Line, anything was possible.
At that moment, the atmosphere throughout the entire racecourse had grown tense to the extreme. Everyone held their breath, staring unblinkingly at the track.
Every tiny movement, every burst of acceleration, tugged at the spectators' heartstrings.
"300 meters remaining!"
The commentator's voice was nearly crazed: "Satono Diamond is closing in on Milan Hai! Satono Diamond is closing in on Milan Hai! The Satomi family's shining diamond is closing in on Milan Hai!
