Vodka presents as a horse girl with dark brown hair featuring a distinctive cream-colored patch on her bangs and a ponytail fading to cream. She typically wears a leather jacket, shorts, and thigh-high boots, accessorized with a clock necklace permanently set to 3:40, marking the start time of her historic 2007 Japanese Derby win. Her design incorporates yellow and blue stripes mirroring her jockey's racing silks, alongside biker-inspired elements reflecting her rebellious nature. She stands 165 cm tall with measurements of 76-55-78 cm, her right eye often partially hidden by her bangs. Her personality blends delinquent posturing with underlying diligence. Aspiring to be "the coolest horse girl," she emulates her motorcycle-loving father, adopting masculine speech patterns like using "ore." Despite projecting toughness, she maintains tidiness, cooks holiday meals, and practices skills like sliding glasses behind her back. She avoids romance-related topics, frequently reacting with nosebleeds—a trait referencing her real-life counterpart's medical condition. Her competitive nature drives her to pursue unconventional paths, captured in her personal motto about choosing untrodden routes. Relationships define key aspects of her story. Her fierce rivalry with roommate Daiwa Scarlet manifests through constant bickering and intense competition across five major races. Their 2008 Tenno Sho (Autumn) photo finish, decided by a mere 2cm, symbolically mirrors their 2cm height difference. She deeply admires Tanino Gimlet, her real-life sire, viewing her as the epitome of coolness and mimicking her mannerisms. Friendships include Aston Machan, whom she defeated in their juvenile races, and upperclassmen like Kawakami Princess. She also respects accomplished racers such as T.M. Opera O, Narita Brian, and Dream Journey. Her racing career features historic milestones. As a two-year-old, she won the 2006 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies. Her defining achievement came in the 2007 Japanese Derby, where she became the first filly in 64 years to win against colts, fulfilling a long-standing dream in Japanese racing. She accumulated seven G1 victories, including consecutive Yasuda Kinen titles (2008-2009), the 2009 Victoria Mile, and the 2009 Japan Cup. Her signature late-race acceleration allowed her to overcome positional disadvantages, exemplified by threading through tight gaps during the 2009 Yasuda Kinen. Six of her G1 wins occurred at Tokyo Racecourse, earning her the title "Queen of Fuchu." Recurring nosebleeds concluded her career. Barred from the 2009 Arima Kinen due to this condition, she aimed for the 2010 Dubai World Cup but suffered another nosebleed during a preparatory race, forcing her retirement. She subsequently became a broodmare in Ireland and passed away in 2019 from a fracture. Her legacy includes JRA Hall of Fame induction (2011) and a bronze statue at Tokyo Racecourse. A 2023 foal from her son Tanino Frankel and Scarlet Tale, granddaughter of Daiwa Scarlet, merged the bloodlines of her fiercest rival.
