Donkey Derby
Players move five donkeys around the racecourse and place bets on which will finish first. Early bets are worth more points but involve greater uncertainty, while later bets offer more information and safer choices. On each turn, players decide whether to use the number rolled or reroll for a higher result, balancing risk against their predictions. When the first three donkeys cross the finish line, the player with the most points wins.
