The champagne is on ice, the sun is rising over the race course and the crowds are starting to drift in through the gates; this is A Day At The Derby, an online slot from Rival Gaming themed on the sport of horse racing. It joins a list of horse-related games such as Champion Of The Track and Day At The Races so let’s find out it if lives up to those standards.
A Day At The Derby plays out over five reels and twenty paylines and those reels are set in front of a traditional grandstand shaded by trees. The symbols are all related to the theme and include a betting slip, binoculars, horse shoes, a cocktail, male and female racegoers, a gold trophy, a bouquet of roses and a green-helmeted jockey.
Special symbols include two scatter symbols – a blue-garbed jockey and a grey horse – and a wild symbol represented by a brown horse.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
The smiling blue jockey is the key to the free spins and and you need to land three or more of him anywhere on the reels to trigger this feature. You will receive the following number of spins:
- Three jockeys – five spins
- Four jockeys – ten spins
- Five jockeys – twenty spins
All wins during this round will be subject to a 3x multiplier.
Bonus Game
Three or more of the grey horse scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will kick this mini-game off and as you can see from the video above your task is to pick one of the three horses you think will win the race.
Make your completely random choice and then watch as the race unfolds; the finishes are always close so a photo finish may be required. The maximum prize if you pick the winner is 10000 coins.
A Day At The Derby Online Slot Playing Tips
You can play with as many or as few active paylines as you want and still have the same chance of triggering the features – they are both activated by scatter symbols.
Verdict
We like slots which offer a little extra and the horse race game here is the icing on the cake. The graphics are quite basic but the game as a whole is fun with some appropriately equestrian sound effects.
