Yamanin Zephyr covers mile distance well as a pace chaser, running on both turf and dirt and holding up across every distance except long races. Her two gold velocity skills give her strong positioning through the middle of a race, and she can flex into sprint races too if needed.

That said, one of her signature skills loses value when inherited compared to a rival card's version, and both her main velocity skills have real conditions that can make them fail to trigger, so she's a fine pick rather than an essential one.

Yamanin Zephyr has long bay brown hair in low twintails with a large star marking converted into a wide white stripe, golden yellow eyes and what looks to be a scrunchie around her right ear.

"My soul burns like an inferno in my chest...

I'll run with the speed of a howling gale."

A natural Umamusume similar to a gentle breeze, but her soul is like a gust of wind.

A breezy Umamusume grounded in nature with a particular fondness for the wind.

When she enters a race, however, she overwhelms the competition with her tempestuous speed.

As a child, she grew to admire a certain mile racer who blew past her rivals with overwhelming strength.

Ever since, she has pledged to become as the wind, just like her idol.

Yamanin Zephyr has long, rosy brown hair, tied into two low twin tails by large, gray, metal clips.

She has white bangs that come to a point, whereas the rest of her hair that frames her face is fluffy and windswept.

She wears an orange-red flower-esque decoration around her right ear.

Her calm, down-turned eyes are light yellow.

For her racing outfit, she wears a cream colored, sleeveless, bodice with frills at the top, decorated with red four-pointed stars.

Around her waist is a red ribbon, with a large blue flower on her hip.

The skirt of her dress is large and layered.

The first layer is a set of light blue pleats, with the right side having a layer of white pleats underneath.

Layered under that is a ring of black fabric, with decorative key-hole shaped cutouts on each petal-shaped pleat.

And the final layer of this skirt is a large white base, decorated with a trim of white ruffles.

On the back of her dress is a large blue ribbon, outlined with dark brown trimming, and decorated with golden diamonds.

Around her neck is a red choker, with a silver four-pointed star charm in the center.

She wears long, light blue, detached sleeves with a metal cuff holding them to her upper arms, the sleeves frill out into light blue ruffles.

She wears light blue leggings underneath this ensemble, and a pair of black loafers with a white flower on the toe of either foot.
