From the publisher: It's post time and the thrills of thoroughbred horse racing await you in this exciting game of chance and strategy. Move your cast metal marker, a jockey atop hi steed, by throwing the die or playing a card. Decide when to make your move, or whether to use your whip to urge your horse to the head of the pack. The attractive wooden case unfolds to become a racetrack, complete with varying conditions that could cost you the race. Advanced rules allow for specific racing styles, handicapping and wagering. No matter if you win, place or show, Old Century Stretch Run is fun for the whole family.
