Escalado*
Escalado was a popular English tabletop horse racing game from the late 1920s. Up to six players act as "jockeys," each with a horse, while one player serves as the bookmaker. Bets are placed on five colorful mechanical horses as they race over a vibrating track, with the player holding the most money after a set number of races declared the winner.
