We saw only one small black-and-white picture of this game in Jean-Pierre Cuvier's book Pinballs le temps des flippers. If we correctly understand the French text, this game was distributed in the mid-1950s by Bussoz, a distributor, and that it was the reuse of a Williams machine which is not specified. Of the several choices of 1950s Williams horserace games that were made in this style, such as Williams' 1951 'Hayburners', none of them have a playfield anything like this one. The upper playfield has a round numbered disc similar to Gottlieb's 1964 'World Fair' except enclosed in a ring of rubbers instead of a ring of pop bumpers. Its lower playfield is a circle of 6 pop bumpers. We cannot discern if there are flippers. It has room on the backglass for bulb scoring only, no score reels. The cabinet has four wooden legs.
