But I was confident that I could win legitimately. Yellow and blue Pegasus her wings fast as she could. So did I.

“Readysetgo!” she took off the second she finished, but I took off right as she began. I flew in between the clouds and knocked them in front of Lightning Dust. Sure, I was cheating, but on the track, as long as you’re not racing Dash, anything goes. I saw the finish line, I was there.
