Gold City’s kit is built around late-race acceleration and smart positioning rather than outlasting rivals with stamina. She shines most as a Late Surger in Mile races, where she stays in the mid-pack early, saves ground, and then triggers her unique skill in the final corner when traffic forms. This allows her to make a clean move and surge forward during the homestretch. With strong Speed, Power, and Wit growth, Gold City excels in races that reward good timing and reliable skill activation, but she needs proper positioning skills and race awareness to perform consistently.

Ideal Stats, Support Cards, and Support Build

| Mile | 1200 | 700 | 1000 | 400 | 500 |

| Long | 1200 | 1100 | 800 | 350 | 350 |
Pace Chasers need more Stamina. Late Surger can run lower Stamina but needs higher Power to break through the pack late. In Mile, aim for 1200 Speed, 1000 Power, and around 700 Stamina, with 500 Wit to improve skill activation.
For Medium, Stamina becomes more important even for Late Surgers. Target 1200 Speed, 900 Stamina, and 700 Power, with 450 Wit and around 350 Guts to maintain mid-pack position and still accelerate cleanly in the final stretch.
In Long, Stamina is the main requirement. Push it to 1100, while keeping 1200 Speed and at least 800 Power so Gold City doesn’t run out of gas before the final corner. Wit at 350 is sufficient here, as clean positioning matters more than frequent skill triggers.

Training Strategy
Gold City does not need max potential to function well, especially in Mile races. Since her kit is designed around Late Surger play, Potential 4 is usually enough to unlock key skills like Late Surger Corners, and she does not require a gold recovery skill for Mile builds. Max potential is only recommended if you plan to run her in Medium or Long distances, where skills like Lie in Wait improve her late-race reliability.
Although Gold City is a Mile specialist, she must clear several Long-distance G1 races during her career, so basic Stamina investment is still required. Aim for around 400 Stamina for the Kikuka Sho and 500 for the Tenno Sho (Spring) to safely complete these races. Be aware of the random event that can restrict training options for a turn. When this happens, it’s often better to rest, take Recreation, or Race, unless the available training includes strong Friendship or Rainbow bonuses.
