    Description

    Royal Steeple Chase is a very astonishing game, published in 1939 by Miro Company in France.
    4 horses compete on a track of 21 spaces, with hedges and rivers. The players receive cards which indicate two actions. They use these to bid on the horse of their choice. They can then buy better cards at auction. The money from the bids is shared equally between all the players, and then the race takes place. Each player in turn plays a card and carries out its two actions in the preferred order. The horses which win and place second award points to their owners. If no horse finishes, the players who did not have a horse gain points.
    The game contains several variants, some of which were inspired by Bridge and were created by French officers who were prisoners of war in Germany in 1941.

    Royal Steeple Chase est un jeu très etonnant, paru en 1939 chez Miro Company en France.
    4 chevaux s'affrontent sur une piste de 21 cases, avec des haies et des rivières. Les joueurs reçoivent des cartes qui indiquent deux actions. Ils enchérissent ensuite pour acheter le cheval de leur choix. Ils peuvent ensuite acheter de meilleures cartes aux enchères. Les mises sont partagées équitablement entre tous les joueurs. Puis la course a lieu. Chacun à son tour pose une carte et réalise ses deux actions dans l'ordre de son choix. Le cheval qui gagne et le second cheval rapportent des points à leur propriétaire. Si aucun cheval n'arrive, les joueurs qui n'avaient pas de cheval gagnent des points.
    Le jeu contient plusieurs variantes. Plusieurs variantes intégrées dans le jeu sont inspirées du Bridge et ont été créées par des officiers prisonniers de guerre en Allemagne en 1941.
