{{Nihongo|'''Valkyrie'''|ヴァルキリー|Varukirī}} is a [[:Category:Primary Allies|primary ally]] featured in the seventh part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[Steel Ball Run]]''. It is a horse belonging to [[Gyro Zeppeli]], who rides it for the entirety of the [[Steel Ball Run (Race)|Steel Ball Run race]].

==Appearance==
Valkyrie is a 4-year-old stock horse with possibly Australian roots, with a plain coat and a mane tied and cut into a row of flat topped buns.

While being ridden by Gyro, it is adorned with a bridle and reins as well as a dark hood covering most of its head though with opening for the mouth, eyes and ears as well as a strand of hair. Several straps of the same clothe cover Valkyrie's neck. Finally, its legs are bandaged at the cannons.

Gyro's jockey number, B-636, is displayed on its side.

==Personality==
Little is known about Valkyrie's personality but it faithfully serves of [[Gyro Zeppeli]]'s mount during the entirety of the [[Steel Ball Run (Race)|Steel Ball Run]]. As noted by Diego Brando, Valkyrie has a quirk where it sways suddenly to its left for every eight breaths it takes.<ref name=SBRC6P11>{{Ch|SBR Chapter 6}}, p.11</ref><br />

==Abilities==
As {{W|Stock Horse}}, Valkyrie has significant stamina. Although Gyro is an amateur rider, he compensates by using the [[Spin]] to complement his riding, using a number of tricks when necessary to gain speed or any advantage possible.

===Golden Spin===
During the events of ''[[Steel Ball Run]]'', only two people on Earth could reproduce the Golden Spin on horseback. Thanks to his talent at horseriding and knowledge of the Spin, Gyro was able to let Valkyrie run at its natural speed, which generated the necessary energy to harness via the stirrups to create the Golden Spin and awaken the Stand [[Ball Breaker]].
