The Victory Races of Naboo represented a celebratory, amicable contest. It was arranged between the Naboo people and the Gungans as a way to commemorate their triumph against the forces of the Trade Federation. The participants included Queen Padmé Amidala and the Bombad General, Jar Jar Binks. To aid them in preparing for this event, Grand Master Yoda dispatched a skillful Jedi youngling.
The race route encompassed diverse landscapes and geological features surrounding Theed, including forests, swamps, and mountains. Although the racers utilized different mounts (Amidala on a tusk cat and Binks on a kaadu), the competition remained balanced. The kaadu demonstrated superior capabilities in swamps and water, while the tusk cat excelled at traversing mountainous terrain.
