Gold Ship is by far one of the most popular Uma’s in the Umamusume: Pretty Derby series known for her quirky and insane personality which also makes her a bit unpredictable, even in the game as sometimes she will flat out refuse to do what the player actually wants in favor of forcing the player into specific actions. This can cause headaches for players trying to complete a career run with her.

With that said, it is possible to not only take down the Anima Kinen, but also the Ura Finale too. Here is a build one of Esports on SI writers used to take Gold at the Arima Kinen with Gold Ship.

In the early days of the game, optimal support cards are very hard to come by which makes listing specific decks hard. With that said, using specific types of cards will make the process of winning with Gold Ship easier.

In general, players may find success building a deck of four speed cards and two stamina as those are the two most important stats to focus on.

As for specific cards players will want to use if possible are :

Other good options include:

Biko Pegasus, Mayano Top Gun, Special Week (Speed), Eishin Flash, Manhattan Cafe and Tokai Teio.

Speed is by far the most important stat in the game currently and should be the primary focus for any Uma build. However, it's important to focus on a couple of other stats as well. When it comes to Gold Ship specifically, since she will run in many Medium and Long races, players will want to focus on Stamina as a secondary stat. Even further, players will want to make sure Power is also decently high, as Power determines how easy an Uma can overtake others, and since Gold Ship is not a Front Runner, overtaking is critical for Gold Ship’s success.
