Bonus features

Three different horses are wild symbols that land on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. As wild symbols, they substitute for all normal missing symbols to complete possible winning combinations. The wilds are limited to landing only on three reels, each horse on one reel, so obviously they cannot create their own winning combos. But the horses are the key to an amazing bonus game that simulates horse racing as seen from the bird’s eye view. To enter the bonus game, you need to land three horses at a time. Then, once inside, you are asked to select one of three horses that you believe to win the race, and after that the three horses begin running. If the horse of your choice comes first, you get 30 free spins at a x4 multiplier. If your selected horse finishes second or third, you are awarded 20 or 15 free spins at a multiplier of x3 and x2, accordingly.

The gold trophy is a scatter that does not need to fall on a line to award a prize. If 2 to 5 scatters are found in any position, you get your total bet times x1 to x100 (up to $5000 at max). Finally, First Past the Post has a gamble feature that is played in a standard Microgaming’s format of guessing a card color or suit.
