The Horse symbols are substitute symbols. This means they act as wild symbols to substitute for other symbols to complete winning combinations.
The Horse symbols are only displayed on Reels 2, 3 and 4.
Note: There are no payouts for any Horse wild symbol combinations.
The Horse wild symbols do not substitute for the Trophy scatter symbol to complete a winning scatter combination.
Three Horse wild symbols scattered anywhere on Reels 2, 3 and 4 activate the First Past The Post Bonus Feature game.
Only one winning combination is paid out per payline. If there is more than one possible winning combination on a payline, you are paid out the value of the highest combination only.
Example:
1. Two Horse symbols are displayed on Reels 2 and 3 and a single Jack symbol is displayed on Reel 1 on an enabled payline. They complete a 3 Jack symbol combination.
The two Horse symbols are displayed as substitute symbols to complete the 3 Jack symbol combination.
You are paid out 10 coins for the 3 Jack symbol combination.
Scatter Symbol
The Trophy symbol is a Scatter symbol. This means it does not need to appear in a line on an enabled payline to win.
The Trophy symbol can be scattered anywhere on the five reels to complete winning combinations, provided two or more Trophy scatter symbols appear.
Winnings are calculated by multiplying the Trophy symbols combination payout, according to the "Regular Payout Schedule", by the total number of coins bet.
The Horse symbols do not substitute for the Trophy scatter symbol to complete winning scatter combinations.
Note: If you have a scatter win and a regular win, you are paid out for both wins, as the scatter symbol does not need to appear on an enabled payline to win. The scatter win is added to the payline win.
