As mentioned before, energy is a hidden stat. Therefore, there is no way for players to know how much energy a trainee has during or outside races. There is a bar showing the energy of the trainee on the main screen, but that is a completely different stat from the one that affects the actual races.

There are many methods to obtain energy during races, and here are some of them: 

  • Stamina: It is one of the five stats that you can train for during preparation days in the URA Finale Mode. Higher Stamina means your Uma Girl starts with a higher energy threshold and regenerates it much faster during races. 
  • Skills: There are many skills you can purchase that regenerate energy mid-race. However, most have conditions that you must meet to start the effect. Currently, Swinging Maestro and Gourmand remain the best energy-regen skills that you can purchase for your trainee. 

Do note that you do not require a very high amount of stamina in the URA Finale Mode, as having too much simply wastes stat points that can be allocated to other areas.
