Winning Ticket (Steampunk) is a Medium and Long Uma in Umamusume: Pretty Derby with strong Turf aptitude, best suited as a Late Surger on 2000m to 2500m race tracks. Her kit leans on Power and Speed, with a skill set built around holding a mid-pack position through the mid-race and firing off a scaling velocity nuke on the final straight in the last spurt. What sets her apart is her unique skill, Ticket to Your Dreams!, which triggers a velocity increase when positioned midpack or further back on the final straight, and grows stronger each time she activates another skill during its duration, up to three times, opening up a build-around final straight nuke that can outscale even top-tier late-race ultimates when fully stacked. That turns her into a comfortable, skill-proc-dependent surger who rewards loading up on near-guaranteed final straight skills rather than chasing raw stat output alone. She hits her ceiling when Come What May and All I've Got carry her through the final straight, then her innate 15,000,000 CC and unique convert that positioning into a sustained velocity burst all the way to the finish.

Recommended Support Cards

Support Card Build

For Winning Ticket (Steampunk)'s build. In URA Finale, run a 2 Speed / 2 Power / 1 Stamina / 1 Wit deck to balance her Speed bonus with the stat coverage her late-race skill kit needs. In Grand Live, take advantage of her rare 8% Speed bonus with a 2 Speed / 2 Wit / 1 Stamina deck on standard medium tracks, shifting to 3 Speed / 2 Wit on flatter or downhill-heavy medium tracks where her Speed bonus can carry the extra Speed card without a dedicated Stamina slot. For Trackblazer, the strongest build is 3 Speed / 3 Power, which fully leverages her 14% Power growth while keeping enough Speed investment to reliably reach the final straight in strong position for her ultimate to trigger.

Winning Ticket Steampunk Training Strategy

• Training

  Focus on Power and Speed. Her 14% Power growth is one of the highest of her three versions, and pushing Power past 1,000 keeps her ultimate's build-around skills firing consistently through the mid and late race. Her 8% Speed bonus is a genuine first for Winning Ticket, so lean into it and push Speed toward 1,000 to hold strong final-straight positioning heading into her ultimate's trigger window. Stamina sits at base growth with no bonus, so prioritize Stamina stat-stick cards and sparks to reach 600 or higher, enough to comfortably clear her career's Kikuka Sho objective without over-investing. Guts benefits from an 8% growth bonus as well, so aim for 400 or higher to help close out the final stretch once her ultimate is active. In Grand Live specifically, take advantage of her rare Speed bonus with a heavier Speed lean than most Late Surgers would normally run, since it directly supports both her positioning and her skill-proc chain.

• Skill Priority

  Push for Come What May, one of the strongest late-race medium skills in the game and a near-guaranteed instant proc for her ultimate's scaling window. All I've Got is a strong secondary pickup for the same reason, and her innate 15,000,000 CC is uniquely efficient among uphill skills, costing far fewer skill points than comparable options. Build her base with Late Surger Straightaways ○, Late Surger Corners ○, and Position Pilfer for solid mid-race and final-straight coverage, and grab Outer Swell from her secret event if you're chasing extra corner value. Full Throttle is worth considering since its stamina cost is offset by a genuinely strong mid-race velocity boost.

• Common Mistakes to Avoid

  Don't build her expecting her ultimate to function like a fixed-value skill, since its real strength comes from stacking additional skill procs during its window rather than from the base effect alone, so skimping on final-straight skill coverage will noticeably undercut her ceiling. Avoid running her on tracks where the final straight sits too close to the last spurt, such as most sprint and several mile tracks, since her ultimate gets partially or fully eaten by the acceleration zone in those cases. Ignoring her weak inherit is also a common trap, since her unique isn't particularly strong as a parent skill unless you're specifically building a niche skill-proc loop around it.

Should You Pull for Winning Ticket Steampunk?

• Pull if she's your favorite: Winning Ticket has a devoted fanbase, and this Steampunk alt finally fixes her long-standing ultimate consistency issues. If she's your Oshi, this is the banner to invest in.
• Pull if you want a comfortable, consistent Late Surger: Her ultimate now reliably procs and scales into one of the strongest late-race nukes in the game once built around, making her a genuinely strong pick on medium and long turf tracks.
• Skip if you're not running Late Surger builds or need broader distance flexibility: Her aptitudes outside Medium and Long turf are weak, and her inherit isn't strong enough to prioritize as a parent unless you're chasing a niche skill-proc loop.

Conclusion

Winning Ticket (Steampunk) earns her spot as a genuinely consistent Late Surger, finally delivering on an ultimate that's given Trainers grief for far too long. Whether you're pulling for the character or want a scaling late-race nuke built around medium and long turf tracks, she's a rewarding pick for Trainers willing to build around her final straight skill kit.
