How To Beat Symboli Rudolf Legend Race in Umamusume Pretty Derby

The easiest way to defeat Symboli Rudolf in the legend race is to use a Front Runner veteran uma against her. Rudolf runs as a Pace Chaser, and her trump card is the ‘Behold Thine Emperor’s Divine Might’ unique skill. It activates if she overtakes three opponents in the Final Leg.
Legend Race Symboli Rudolf Stats

- Speed: 638
- Stamina: 617
- Power: 608
- Guts: 557
- Wit: 660
- Running Style: Pace Chaser
If she were running as a Late Surger, it would be much harder to beat Rudolf because her unique skill would activate every time. As a Pace Chaser, Rudolf is either at the front during the final corner or stuck in the crowd, preventing her from meeting the conditions of her unique skill.
Winning Strategy

The Medium (2,400m) Turf race takes place in Tokyo as a part of the Japan Cup. Your Front Runner should have Speed and Stamina in equal measure for this considerable distance. Good candidates for medium-distance Front Runners include: Mihono Bourbon, Daiwa Scarlet, Silence Suzuka, Mejiro McQueen, and Mayano Top Gun.
Ideal Stat Front Runner Distribution:
- Speed: 700+
- Stamina: 700+
- Power: 500+
- Guts: 300+
- Wit: 400+
The winning strategy against Symboli Rudolf is to have a greater Speed stat than her and reach the Final Corner with enough Stamina to go full throttle. For this, you will either require Stamina exceeding 700, or Stamina-recovery skills like:
- Swinging Maestro (SSR Super Creek)
- Breath of Fresh Air (SSR Vodka)
- Adrenaline Rush (SSR Rice Shower)

You can build upon the foundation of solid base stats and stamina-recovery skills with a few speed skills to widen your lead during and after the final corner. Here are a few examples:
- Homestretch Haste
