Apparatus for simulating a race, particularly a horse race, on a video display 10 stores data relating to simulated runners in a memory 36. A computing circuit 36 acts on the stored data in accordance with random numbers from a random number generator 38 to adjust their horizontal position on the display 10. The display background is scrolled by a circuit 27 to simulate movement. The apparatus includes means for generating betting odds from numerical factors stored at 18 for all runners, in dependence on the particular runners selected at random at 20 for a given race. |
