Chapter 51 No. 5 overtakes
Wang Yue saw Yuncan looking intently at the information sheet and asked curiously: "Who do you think will win?"
Yun Can was confused: "Of course it's No. 5, I've already placed my bet."
"No. 5?" Wang Yue was surprised, "Do you really think No. 5 will win?"
"of course."
Yun Can said with a half-smile: "Otherwise, you think I chose it out of motivation?"
Wang Yue laughed awkwardly, "This... this is all a misunderstanding."
"But now I'm really curious. Why do you think No. 5 can win? From the looks of it, No. 5 has no advantage whether it's the jockey or the horse."
Wang Yue said this not to discriminate against female jockeys, but it is indeed more difficult for female jockeys than male jockeys.
Just like the horse breeds in the racecourse, no matter which horse they are, they are the best among them. On the contrary, they will be smarter and more fierce, and not easy to be tamed.
Although female jockeys are lighter, their relative strength will be weaker and their ability to control the horse will also be weaker.
Therefore, from the beginning of horse racing to the present, most of the participants are men, and it is difficult for women to win.
It's not that there is none, but it's very rare.
Over time, a chain of sexism will emerge.
There's nothing you can do about it, it's just an unavoidable feature.
What's more, the horse No. 5 is not a good horse in horse racing in the public consciousness.
Yun Can opened the information on page 5 and clicked, "You said that because her horse is a domestic breed?"
"That's not what I mean." Wang Yue sighed, "As you know, almost all horse racing competitions are of foreign horse breeds. Even domestic horse racing competitions use horses born abroad."
"I don't think our own horses are bad, it's just..."
Wang Yue didn't finish speaking, but how could Yun Can not understand what he meant.
What he said were all facts and the current situation, but Yun Can was very surprised. Are domestic horses really inferior to foreign horses?
Or is it just that the country lacks the environment and tendency to cultivate and train horses? If she can provide these, can the horses of Dragon Kingdom compete with horses from abroad?
Of course, this will not be known until the game is over.
The race is about to start, all participating horses enter the gate, the referee checks the participants and horses again and then exits, and the brakeman raises the signal flag.
Not only the players on the field, but all the spectators watching the game are waiting with bated breath.
Yun Can has never seen a horse racing match, but the atmosphere of this kind of competitive arena can infect everyone. Regardless of whether they understand it or not, whether they have seen it or not, it makes people's hearts beat faster and their blood boil.
A few seconds later, the gatekeeper released the gate, and all the horses rushed out like arrows.
The sound of hoofbeats and cheers mixed together, and the eight horses moved forward alternately.
At the beginning, horse No. 3 was in the lead, horse No. 7 was one position behind, and the other horses were about the same behind horse No. 7.
But after passing the first obstacle first, horse No. 7 overtook the lead by one head and led more and more behind.
Wei Qingfeng clenched his fists and cheered: "Well done, rush on No. 7!"
His voice is not quiet, and it is even more obvious in the box, but now no one cares about him or cares.
Wang Yue and Zhang Cheng were both staring closely at the arena, and even Liu Fenfen was looking nervously.
Only Yuncan, her eyes never left No. 5.
From the beginning of the game, No. 5 belongs to the top rankings, but like all competitive games, the most eye-catching one is always the competition for the championship and runner-up.
Therefore, No. 5, who is in the middle position, does not take much attention.
What's more, not many people were optimistic about it before the game started.
But Yun Can saw the difference.
During the race, to stabilize and reduce wind resistance, all jockeys lower their center of gravity and crawl, but they will keep a certain distance from the horse's back.
This is technique and the best position when riding fast.
But Jockey No. 5’s body obviously pressed down more than the others. The distance between her upper body and the horse was almost imperceptible. She even lowered her body to the horse’s neck before crossing the obstacle.
This was a very dangerous move, and one could easily fall off the horse if not careful, but she didn't seem to be worried at all.
After she left the horse's neck, the horse's head lifted slightly, and then it was very obvious that it had increased its speed.
Speed up without any hesitation or pause, raise your front hooves when facing an obstacle, and cross the first obstacle smoothly and quickly.
This nearly perfect obstacle clearance allowed him to surpass his opponent and become third, with only one horse's head left between him and No. 3.
Yun Can's hands unconsciously squeezed tighter.
This competition is 2000 meters in total, and there are still two obstacle crossings left. The last 400 meters is the final sprint stage.
It has now run 500 meters, which means that the horse will not only have to pass two obstacles, but also have the physical strength to complete the sprint.
It’s a test for the horse and it’s a test for the jockey.
At the second hurdle, the No. 1 jockey fell off his horse.
A horse without a jockey is like a headless fly. It knows where to go and what to do next. After running for a certain distance, it stops.
The horses simply did not run rampant, causing even more unpredictable casualties.
The medical staff came forward quickly. Fortunately, the No. 1 jockey was not seriously injured, but unfortunately he was no longer allowed to compete in this race.
At the end of the third obstacle, Horse No. 5 had surpassed Horse No. 3 and came to second place, and was one and a half lengths ahead, and was only half a length behind Horse No. 7.
No one thought that No. 5 could run to this level. In this recognized championship competition between No. 3 and No. 7, No. 5 suddenly emerged.
Even Wang Yue and Zhang Cheng, who were immersed in the game, couldn't help but look at Yun Can.
They chose No. 5 to support her, but they never thought that No. 5 could win, and even thought they had little hope of entering the top three.
But now, it can even hope to win the championship!
Yun Can was so focused on watching the field that she didn't pay attention to the sights around her. She watched jockey No. 5 suddenly open and close his lips as if he was making some noise after crossing the third obstacle.
In the fierce and noisy arena, it was difficult for the audience to hear such a sound, but Yun Can saw the shape of her mouth.
After this, the horse raised its head and cried softly, as if in response.
Yuncan is even more certain that there is a tacit understanding and magnetic field between jockey No. 5 and her horse that no one else has.
After a brief communication, the jockey lowered his body, and then the horse began to exert force, galloping forward at a speed that had never been seen before.
It was extremely quiet in the box, and even breathing could be heard clearly.
Everyone looked at the two horses in the front with bated breath.
The distance between them is getting closer and closer, from half a horse's length to a horse's head, and then walking head-to-head.
Finally, 150 meters away from the finish line, No. 5 overtook him!
