Abstract

This invention relates to gaming apparatus and a gaming method. More particularly, but not exclusively, this invention relates to horse race gaming apparatus and a method of simulating horse races. The apparatus consists of storage means for storing a number of computer generated racing objects. Each of the racing objects have inherent attributes assigned by a computing means. Receiving means receives race performance influencing information before the start of a race and the computing means simulates a race between at least two racing objects. An outcome of the race is computed using at least some of race influencing information and the inherent attributes of the racing objects.
