Will your horse be the first to cross the finishing line?
John McCririck’s Starters Orders is a realistic PC horse racing game. Own, train, ride, and bet on horses at over 40 well known racecourses worldwide including Arlington, Ascot, Flemington, Newmarket and Tokyo.
Train the horses yourself or let your PC do it for you! Bid at the auctions for additional horses or sell one of your own horses to generate extra cash, but make sure you keep a close eye on your finances – jockeys and race entry fees can soon add up. View current race details and entries then analyse the form before you place your bet.
On race day watch as your horse takes to the field and see whether your hard work has paid off. Will your horse be the first to cross the finishing line? Even take to the saddle yourself, judge the pace of the race then make your move.
It’s a great game to play with friends using multi-player mode. Take it in turns to bet on the horses and see who can be first to win £1 million.
