The game includes a game board having a plurality of parallel racing tracks disposed thereon; a pair of gaming dice for determining the play of the game; and a plurality of playing pieces which are moved along the respective racing tracks during the play of the game. Upon commencement of the game, the dice are rolled to determine which ones of a predetermined number of playing pieces are to be "scratched" from the subsequent race. The remaining playing pieces are placed in the starting positions on the respective tracks and are advanced along the respected tracks in accordance with the roll of the dice. A plurality of sets of playing cards are dealt out randomly to the players. Each set of playing cards is comprised of a plurality of numbered cards corresponding to the numbers of respective ones of the playing pieces. The first playing piece to reach the "finish line" is declared the winner and the players share in the winnings from a central "pot", which is comprised of a plurality of playing chips representing game "money", in accordance with the number of playing cards corresponding to the winning "horse" held by the respective players.
