-		Everyone is terrified of Taiki Shuttle, who has a 3-4 ult. Triple fronts would like to have a word. It's a dirt track, but
-		every horse can run dirt if you're brave enough.

-			Smart Falcon is the obvious choice, being the only actual dirt front runner to exist. Her unique isn't terribly strong for

-			Silence Suzuka in runaway mode will make positioning much easier. I don't have to think about Unrestrained on my other
-			horses because they won't be able to get in position for it anyway. Other Suzukas will be rare because she has G dirt and
-			people don't realize distance aptitude hardly matters for runaways. <span class="inline-block"

-			Taiki Shuttle is a front runner now. She has B dirt and C front at base. Very easy to fix. Falco's mid-race is probably
-			stronger than Taiki's between her unique and Trending, so Taiki should often be in position for her ult in this build.

-		This is probably the strongest gameplan I've been able to use, but I failed to execute it properly. In particular, this was
-		the CM that taught me through experience how important mid race speed skills are for front runners. Final win rate was a bit
-		over 50%. Insane luck with Unrestrained at the same time as Angling made Suzuka the champion of the Aquarius Cup.

-	<p>
-		A race with no Angling, and also with the largest proportion of downhill in any race. If you build wit, you literally cannot
-		finish a career without enough stamina for a full spurt.
-	</p>
-	<p>As a sprint, this is also where spot struggle shines. Time for Unity Cup guts builds.</p>
-	<p>
-		I forgot that <Skill skill={skills.unrestrained} mention /> requires being in first place, so I thought it would be reasonable to
-		base my team around gambling on it. That turned out not to be a great decision.
-	</p>
-	<ol class="mb-4 list-decimal pl-4">
-		<li>
-			Silence Suzuka has Unrestrained built in, and she's my favorite front runner. Welcome to the team.
-			<span class="inline-block">1013/289/790/1177/1008 A/A/S</span>. Absolutely nailed the target stat line. We didn't even know
-			yet that spot struggle scales with front aptitude, but I got that, too.
-		</li>
-		<li>
-			Smart Falcon has an accel ult that can fire on the 1m portion of mid race stretch before the start of late race. This
-			requires her not getting into second place before the corner, and then overtaking during it. Fixing the aptitudes is a bit
-			tough with the parents I have, but it's doable.
-			<span class="inline-block">1155/373/930/388/1072 A/S/S</span>. I could do better on the stat line and the skills, but I'm
-			never going to see those aptitudes again.

-		<li>
-			Everyone is afraid of Curren Chan's pace chaser nonsense, so I'll use her as a front runner instead.

-		The plan worked exactly as I hoped, but what the plan lacked was <Skill skill={skills.pastaInherit} mention />. While I was
-		suppressing it on other teams' front runners with my outstanding mid race, they were also gambling on <Skill
-			skill={skills.turboSprint}
-			mention
-		/> and <Skill skill={skills.rushingGale} mention />, and I didn't have enough accel to beat them. I found a mention in my chat
-		history that, as of round 2 day 1, I had a 78% top two rate with a 32% win rate. Lessons learned. Still managed to get 2nd in
-		the finals, and also my first ever group A round 2 sweep.
