A horse racing game in which players take on the joint roles of gamblers, bookmakers and horse owners. Talk about conflict of interest! Racing is accomplished by moving horses around a mapboard racetrack. As each player has incentives to win or lose, or help another player to win or lose, tactics can get quite involved. All very thought provoking.
