Yeah, that's the ninja horse's name.

Play the game yourself here!: http://www.jra-jwc.jp/win5/

My first race I had a horse with a mohawk and a horse with an afro. Halfway through the race all the horses got power-ups... one was on skis and another tried to run on top of a giant tire! The winner was a horse that rode on a swiveling chair. All the horses have hilarious gag names to match their looks.

How to play (if you can't read Japanese): [NOTE: You can only purchase 20 tickets per day unless you delete the cookie from your browser history]

1) Go to the website (http://www.jra-jwc.jp/win5/)
2) Click the red "skip" button in the lower right to skip the intro.
3) Click the red button again: Japan World Cup 3 Wins を始める！！ (It now says "Begin Japan 3 World Cup Wins" in Japanese)
4) Click the first yellow tab next to the red button that says "馬券購入" (purchase tickets)
5) For ease of play, I suggest clicking the yellow button on the far right that says ランダム (randomly choose horses)
6) Next, you have to decide how many tickets to buy... you can only buy 20 tickets per day (unless you clear the browser history/cookie cache). I suggest you pick 20. When you're ready, click the button that looks like this: 購入 (purchase)
7) The next screen shows you your picks for the races (there will be 5 WTF races--remember, these horses have been randomly picked for you). Click the yellow button that looks like this: 決定 (confirm)
Click the red button that looks like this: 出走 and has a picture of a jockey riding a horse (begin run)
9) Click the red button that looks like this: レースに進む！！　(start the race)
10) Enjoy your WTF race!

I played this at work the other day and I just did not know what was going on. After the score screen came it took me about five minutes to figure out "OH! I'm supposed to bet on one of those "things"!" The whole thing was just so bizarre.
