Cygames is using the jockeys who lend the game its racing credibility as comic leads, tying the live-action CM to the same Shundai Festival scenario the character CM promotes.

Cygames released a new Uma Musume Pretty Derby commercial with jockeys Yutaka Take and Christophe Lemaire. The CM, "Omoi no Take o, Koko ni Kome-ru," is tied to the new training scenario "Tomo, Shiki-toki -Go-shiki Shundai-sai-" and a festival theme. The two appear in kimono, wrapped in auras, and face off in an esper battle before dancing choreography they learned for the shoot. A separate character CM set to "Ryouran Enbu" features narration by Kotono Mitsuishi as new character Agatsuma.
The commercial pairs the two jockeys as costumed performers rather than cameo spokesmen. Take and Lemaire wear kimono, carry mysterious auras, and play out an esper battle against each other. The shoot ends in a dance the pair learned for the CM, with the two said to have run through the choreography up to the take after memorizing it in one pass.
A second CM covers the game side, set to the new song "Ryouran Enbu," with the Uma Musume characters working through performances for the Shundai Festival. Kotono Mitsuishi narrates as Agatsuma, a new character.
