Apba Saddle Racing Game For Sale
APBA SADDLE RACING SEASON CARD SETS My favorite replay horse racing game (but it doesn't have a lot of competition!) is the APBA Saddle Racing game produced by the APBA Game Company from the early 70s until the late 80s, at which time it was discontinued. Even though the last official APBA set was produced based on the 1987 racing season, now you can get APBA Saddle Racing season sets from a few different years from Gary Stishan. I had been thinking about buying one of these sets for what must be like 6 months now, from when I first heard about them.
I finally placed the order this month and I am extremely happy with the product and service I recieved. First off, you HAVE to have a copy of the original APBA Saddle Racing game. These are NOT standalone games or card sets. Each year, APBA would produce a card set based on the previous year's racing results. These card sets would include the following: 112 horse cards, 70 rated jockeys on a sheet of paper, and a sheet of paper with 20 feature stakes races from that year, including the Triple Crown races. Gary offers a base card set for the following seasons for $9.95 (plus shipping) that includes the same things as the APBA sets. 112 horses, 70 rated jockeys, 20 races.

I play apba baseball most of the time, solo mostly but occasionally with grandkids, nieces, and nephews. I bought the saddle racing game on sale at an apba. Scarce and popular Saddle Racing simulation. The first 'season' is 1969 -- published late 1970. The company made new seasons of horses through the 1987 season.
He has the following seasons available: 1968, 1988, 2000, and 2001. 2002 will be along sometime next month. These sets are produced with the full blessing of the APBA Game company. The horses come on 67 lb. Card stock and you have to cut them out yourself and they are in black and white, not the familiar APBA black printing, red results format. However, Gary states all these caveats up front, no surprises here.
I found the cardstock to be of a decent weight and the printing is very clear and legible, black on a greyish card stock. Total Annihilation Full Torrent. Other than the cards being a slightly smaller size than the orginal Saddle Racing cards, they are still laid out in the same format as the original cards so results are easy to find and read. The cards even include some NEW information that APBA never included, such as money winnings, win, place and show results, and a brand new rating called Endurance. (See below for more on that.) Instead of jamming the 20 race lineups on one big crowded sheet as APBA used to do, Gary provides 10 pages with 2 races to a page. There is also a lot more detail included on each race compared to the originals.
This is a big improvment to the APBA version. The rated jockeys (and the list of included horses) are printed on sheets that double as results sheets with places to record the jockey's (and horse's) finishes. Along with everything else, Gary also provides a 'Year in Review' section, and some optional rules, some of which I've already decided to incorporate into my races. One limits the number of moves you can 'save up' (a very unrealistic part of the orginal game rules) based on the jockey's ability. A very nice, clean way to handle it. Also, as mentioned above, all horses have a brand new rating called Endurance. Basically, if a horse races a distance it is not accustomed to racing, there is a chance it will tire out at a given point in the race.
