A simple, fast moving race game in which movement of horses along the racetrack is determined by spinning a disc in the centre of the game board. Initially, it is spun twice for each horse and then players place bets. Players then continue to spin the disk and move their horses accordingly. There are corresponding spaces on the perimeter with instructions. Horses in line with the spinner result must follow advantages or penalties as indicated.

After an agreed number of races, the player with most money, wins. Up to 6 players can own horses, the remainder join in the backing. Horse cards are dealt to players. Owners of named horses pay an entrance fee for each horse and are rewarded for a place, 1st , 2nd or 3rd.

Payout is made at the end of the race for the bets and owners of winning horses. A great and rare party game.
