>>715899098 (OP)Have you ever played Princess Trainer or similar, where you choose activities to boost the character's stats through ranks G to SS? It's like that, but a little more streamlined since it's live service, and with a lineage system dressed up as role models where snapshots of your previous clears act as parents would in a game about actual animals and pass down stats/skills/etc
You're a trainer, not a jockey, so the races themselves have no player input and are essentially stat checks with a little RNG for skill pops, passing the competition, breaking through blocks, and so on
