most early horseracing games were based around betting daily double was half decent at the time

i remember some really bad american windows games

horse racing tycoon is prob worse of the modern day games

there is only 1 starters orders in a lge of its own

Hooves of thunder was a breakthru game. Starters orders is the best out there ! No doubt... If you mention other games on here do they delete your post? thats not right...... This is off topic....jus sayin...

Not the worst, but I remember a game called "stretch drive" - it was text only. I had to send off to the USA enclosing seven dollars in American currency to have it delivered to me here in the UK in about 1996. Came on a floppy disk, but included breeding which was good.
