This information file is part of ADARDEMO.ARC.

ADARDEMO.ARC contains a self-running demo of "A Day at the Races" (ADAR).
Place all the files created from de-arcing ADARDEMO.ARC in the same folder
on any floppy disk or hard drive except for the file ROMPATCH.PRG which
must be placed in an AUTO folder on your boot disk.  Then re-boot your
system.  Double-click on adardemo.prg from low resolution to begin.
Allow the demo to run through its whole cycle a few times to watch the
information contained in the horse data base grow.  NOTE - much of the
digitized sound is available only on machines with at least one meg of
RAM along with the purchase of "A Day at the Races Companion" (ADARC).

ADAR is a comprehensive simulation of the horse race track environment.
The research and development has taken three years to complete.  Highlights
of the simulation include:
. multi or single player (1 to 15 players)
. buy and sell horses
. select jockeys
. place wagers, receive payoffs
. 9 different types of wagers - win, place, show, daily double, big exacta,
  exacta, quinella, trifecta, and jackpot
. 4 different race types: claiming, maiden, allowance, and handicap
. 4 different race lengths: 4 1/2 furlongs, 6 1/2 furlongs, 7 furlongs,
  and 1 1/16 miles
. a dynamic database tracks up to 500 horses, 50 jockeys, and 15 players
. database maintains past performances for horses and complete statistical
  histories for horses and jockeys
. each horse and each jockey have their own distinct attributes, strengths,
  and weaknesses
. injuries to horses and jockeys, suspensions to jockeys
. race scheduling controlled by you or the computer or both
. colorful and exciting real-time animation
. ability to 'pan' through the field of horses as the race is being run
. 14 different on-line or hard-copy standings and statistics available
. halls of fame maintained for horses, jockeys, and players
. GEM-based program, completely mouse controlled (optional with IBM version)

IBM PC version should be ready to ship in September or October.  An Amiga
version and a C64 version will also be ready sometime this fall.
