The design here is just what you’d expect from a horse racing-themed slot game. With the parade ring in the background, you’ll see lower value A to J symbols plus 4 higher value horses. The best of these is the white horse which pays 12.5 times your stake if you land 5 across a payline.
Peter Scudamore himself is the wild. He doesn’t offer any pays but he does substitute for all other symbols bar the scatter. NetEnt has put in a decent range of extras in Scudamore’s Super Stakes.
Random Wilds feature - on any spin, between 2 and 5 horse shoes can drop onto the reels. The positions they land on turn wild and a new payout consideration is made.
Bet Slip feature - the aim here is to try and land a specific symbol a certain number of times within a limited number of spins. Manage that and you’ll win a stake multiplier prize. For example, collect 11 wilds in 10 spins for a reward of 5.85x. Opt to try and collect 92 in 80 spins and the odds increase to 1,242x.
Peter’s Classic Cup feature - this is a free spins round that’s played on an expanded 5 reel, 4 row, 32 payline machine. Before the feature begins, pick 1 of the 4 horses. They’re each linked to one of the A to J royal symbols. An animated race then takes place underneath the reels.
Each time you land a winner made up of the royal symbols, their associated horse gallops along the track. If your chosen horse makes it to the finishing post first, you’ll win a prize. If you’ve picked the favourite and it wins, you’ll pocket a 50 times stake prize. If you’ve chosen the rank outsider and that wins, then a 5,000 times stake prize awaits! You can also win from the free spins too which end once a horse has won the race.
Considering he’s been retired for 25 years, it seemed a bit strange for Net Entertainment to produce a slot game starring Peter Scudamore. It works well enough though. The visuals and soundtrack are just what you’d expect from a racing slot game and the range of bonus features really relates to the theme.
If you enjoy nothing better than a day at the track, then this simple but enjoyable slot game should deliver plenty of entertainment. I would also recommend you try Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven from Playtech which offers payouts of 7,777 times your stake and similar bonus features.
