Japan's Horse Racing Dating Game

In an effort to get more Japanese herbivores interested in girls and gambling, the Japan Racing Association (JRA) just released it's free online horse racing dating game called My Sweet Umadonna - Me and You and our horse or My sweet ウマドンナ　～僕は君のウマ～. The title is a word play where UMA = "horse" and "Madonna"= "Madonna" or "The Virgin Mary" or "Dream Girl" or whatever. Anyway, it appears as though the objective of this game is to start a relationship with an anime character or fake girlfriend and then go to the horse races together.

Here is JRA's promo video for this new game:
