Daiwa Scarlet
Daiwa Scarlet carries herself like someone who expects to be seen clearly—and remembered. Known simply as Scarlet, she stands at 163 cm and brings a vivid, high-contrast presence to the track and classroom alike, the kind that suits a girl whose very name feels bold. A Junior Division student in Ritto Dorm, she introduces herself with the confident Atashi, and calls her trainer “Anta” or “Trainer,” a small detail that says plenty about her direct, personal style.
There is a strong sense of discipline in the way Scarlet is presented. In her notebook, her goals are written in red ink and her reflections in blue, a neat little system that feels perfectly in character: passionate ambition on one page, cool self-review on the next. Even her pre-race habit has a certain theatrical certainty to it—before a race, she wants her trainer to walk behind her. It is an image that suggests poise, confidence, and perhaps a preference for entering the spotlight on her own terms.
Her personal details add polish without dulling that edge. Scarlet’s listed measurements are B90/W56/H82, her shoe size is 24.5 cm, and her weight is famously recorded as “Unknown (refused measurement)”—which, frankly, suits her mystique better than any number could. Her phone background is a photo of the flower bouquet her mother gave her for her birthday, a lovely glimpse of warmth beneath the competitive shine. She is voiced by Chisa Kimura, whose presence is tied to Scarlet all the way back to the character’s initial public profile reveal in 2017.
She also has a few charmingly specific quirks that keep her from feeling too immaculate. Scarlet can draw straight lines without a ruler, and she faithfully writes fan letters to her favorite manga artist—details that make her seem meticulous, sincere, and just a little unexpectedly adorable. Among other Uma Musume, Vodka stands out most strongly in her orbit: Scarlet’s roommate, rival, and stablemate. That overlap alone gives their connection a special intensity, and Scarlet is also noted to admire Agnes Tachyon, adding another interesting point to her web of associations.

Daiwa Scarlet was one of Japan’s standout mares of the late 2000s, a chestnut daughter of Agnes Tachyon bred by Shadai Farm and raced in the colours of Keizo Oshiro. Foaled on 13 May 2004, she was trained at Ritto by Kunihide Matsuda and compiled an exceptional race record of 12 starts for 8 wins and 4 seconds, earning ¥786.685 million in JRA prize money. Her major success came at the highest level, culminating in victory in the 2008 Arima Kinen, one of Japan’s most prestigious races.

She was also notably well bred. Daiwa Scarlet was out of Scarlet Bouquet, by Northern Taste, and came from a family that had already produced top-class performers. Her siblings included Daiwa Major, himself a major G1 winner, as well as Glorious Sunday and Daiwa Rouge. That background gave her a strong pedigree page, but Daiwa Scarlet fully justified it on the racecourse with a career marked by consistency as much as brilliance.
Her three-year-old season established her as an elite filly. In 2007 she won the Oka Sho, then added the Rose Stakes, Shuka Sho, and the Queen Elizabeth II Commemorative Cup. That sequence made her one of the dominant fillies of her generation and earned her the JRA Award for Best Three-Year-Old Filly for 2007. Rather than being a one-season star, she carried that form forward against older competition as well.
At four, she added the Sankei Osaka Hai in 2008 before sealing her place in Japanese racing memory with the Arima Kinen later that year. Winning the Grand Prix gave her career a fitting high point, confirming that she could excel not only within her own age and sex division but also on one of the sport’s biggest stages. Across her short but concentrated career, she never finished worse than second, a striking testament to her reliability at the top level.
Retired from racing, Daiwa Scarlet remains significant both as a high-class race mare and as a member of a distinguished Shadai Farm family. Her combination of pedigree, championship-level filly form, and Arima Kinen glory ensures her place among the notable Japanese mares of her era.
