Animal Racing

The Irish invented horseracing. It began as a game of how fast can your new horse run but then grew. When the Irish immigrated over to the United States, the sport became nation wide. The sport was especially popular in Kentucky, and thus the Kentucky Derby was the name of the game. Heres a good site http://www.ibiblio.org/fiddlers/Playingponies2.htm

A horse races for purse money only under certain conditions where allowing betting would be unfair to the betting public. The most common reason is when one horse of an entry is scratched after betting opens for that race. In many racing jurisdictions, the other horse is allowed to run, but for purse money only.

Some movies that are based on the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race are Iron Will, Mush: The Movie, and the animated movie Balto. There have also been some TV movies based on the races including the 2012 TV movie The Iditarod : Beyond the Race and the 2000 TV movie Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race.

As like most things in a horse race, nothing is ever a sure bet. The odds favorite is more or less an educated guess. It is never written in stone. That is why the horse that was the 'long shot' wins once in a while. Seabiscuit was a habitual 'long shot' early in his career. As he became more successful his odds went up. I always think if you want a sure thing you should ask the horses.

At the end of a horse race the winner's head crosses the finish line followed immediately by the next horse. This is a very close race. To win by a nose means the same thing, but instead of the head crossing the finish line first it is just a nose.

It's a small niche market and none of these manufacturers or developers want to ruin their reputation.

The best horse races are found in Kentucky. That is for the Thoroughbreds and in Arabia and sandy desert places the Arabians are used for races across the desert. For a movie of that watch Hildalgo.

Horse races are started with a flag. They are started with a trumpet, usually. The Steward presses a button that opens the starting gates and that's when the race is commenced.
