THE WORLD
Scenes alternate between the track and the stables.
On track, Vesuvious gives the orders but the player has to execute them, and might spontaneously participate in creating problems for nearby horses or riders.
The stables are filled with trash talk, threats, and the occasional brawl if a horse escapes its stall.
