Ep 17 | Eric Simon's detailed analysis of APBA Saddle Racing and his take on improving this out-of-print classic
Eric Simon's family has had a long relationship with horse racing, which makes his obsession with the out-of-print APBA Saddle Racing game mosrt understandable. So diligently does he assess the statistical and timing accuracy of horses and jockeys that he put his calculations to the test by rating 800 horses at a time. He has created horses, free of charge, for the 2018 racing season and 2020 Breeders Cup. Here, Eric shares insider's knowledge of the sport of horse racing and how best to depict those realities on the tabletop track.
