Stakes Winner

One of fhe strangest games you're likely to see on the Neo-Geo is Stakes Winner. This is possibly the first horse-racing game to ever hit U.S. arcades.

Pick from eight different horses. Each one has separate statistics for speed, stamina and strength. As the game progresses, your horse will get stronger through training. As you train your colt, he'll increase in value, too.

There are several different tracks and lots of opposition. You control your horse by using your reins and whip.

Stakes Winner is a far cry from the slew of fighting games on the Neo. If you are looking for something different, this cart definitely fits the bill.
