Overview

A card-driven horse race game in which players secretly bet on either a winner, a second-place horse, or a double of the two. Each of the four horses can be moved by any player. Some of the cards allow specific movement of one horse a number of spaces; the rest of the cards can move any of the horses, but only one that is in a certain position in the race when the card is played.

1970s releases by Otto Maier Verlag are reportedly the same as the 2001 re-release by Berliner Spielkarten. Components and graphics have changed (some early Ravensburger editions had metal horses and/or felt "boards"), but reportedly the rules have remained unchanged. Jockey was originally published in the Ravensburger Casino Series. Jockey was also published in the compilation of Bertelsmann Buchclub in 1976 (see Jockey & Grand Prix).

There also exists an Italian version of the game, Corsa Tris from 1993, which is marketed as 3 to 6 players while most other versions state 2 to 6 players.
