The horse that reaches the control box first is the winner.Īll the horses are named after famous Australian racehorses, including Phar Lap. The object of the game is to draw out all horses to the full extent of the string and then wind them in with a crank located on the control box. It consists of eight plastic race horses and jockeys attached to a 'control box' by approximately one metre of string.
