Overview

Escalado was a popular English table horse racing game from the late 1920's. Up to six "jockeys" each have a metal horse, (plastic in the recent update), and one player acts as the bookie. Players then place wagers on the five colored mechanical horses, which race across a vibrating course. The player with the most money after the agreed upon number of races is the winner.
