Matikanefukukitaru is built to excel on turf races, with a focus on long-distance races as a Late Surger. You should build her to match her strengths, and she’ll be able to bring home the victory. Her stats are key to this strategy — focusing on her speed and stamina will give her the best chance to succeed.

Matikanefukukitaru’s Best Stats

The most important stats for her are speed and stamina, with power close behind. You can ignore some other stats like guts and wits early on, until her main abilities are developed.

Optimal stat ranges

Stats	Priority Ratio	Optimal Number
Speed	8	800-900
Stamina	8	800-900
Power	2	400-500
Guts	1	200-300

For skills, consider passing on Air Groove as a legacy runner, since it provides useful skills for her late surger strategy.
