Play Leading Jockey 2 (Japan) Online
Pick a horse, manage its stamina mid-race, and try not to faceplant on the turns—those pixelated jockeys celebrate hard when you pull off a win. The menus are in Japanese, but you’ll quickly learn which button means "don’t sell my good horse by mistake."

Game Overview
Leading Jockey 2 is one of those weirdly satisfying SNES games that shouldn’t work as well as it does. You start by picking a horse (go for the scrappy underdog—trust me), then dive into this mix of micro-management and frantic racing. The controls feel surprisingly tight for a 16-bit horse sim—hold A to build speed, but ease off before the turns or you’ll wipe out spectacularly.
What hooked me was how much personality the pixelated jockeys and horses have. They’ve got these little victory animations when you win, and the rival AI actually adapts if you keep using the same strategy. The menus are all in Japanese, but after a race or two, you’ll figure out which option is "buy better saddles" versus "accidentally sell your best horse."
It’s a shame this never left Japan, because there’s nothing else quite like it on the SNES. You’ll either love the oddball charm or bail after ten minutes—no in-between.
