(More customer reviews)This is one of the best games I have played, ever. I was afraid at first that it might be more fanciful than I wanted, that maybe the horses were not even going to be horses at all, robots perhaps. But thankfully, they are truly horses. This is a most realistic game, with conditions such as sloppy tracks, getting bumped and dealing with getting boxed in. Most fun of all is winning the big races, because by the time you accomplish such a thing, you have truly put in your time with eating a lot of dust. You gradually build up a stable of better and better champs, and are invited to race in previously unknown races. Special trophies are awarded to the best horses, and when they retire, they are placed in a "hall-of-fame", where their stats are memorialized. A knowledge of horse-racing is almost a must before playing this game, such as knowing the difference between a dirt and turf track, a sprinter and a distance horse, and understanding how horses peak differently. Handicapping also comes into play. All in all, this is a most rich, educational game. Perhaps most of all, I have learned how much jockeying can make or break a race, no matter how good the horse.
