Got this from another forum, it is a hilarious Timewaster.

You basically put bets on different racers, then the program will randomly generate the races with different outcomes. They tend to start pretty normally, and will end up EXTREMELY ridiculous by the end. I've never laughed so hard at something before. Apparently, this was a betting simulator for actual horse races. They put it behind a goofy racing game to show it off, I guess. You aren't betting any real money, just in game points, so no worries on that count.
http://www.jra-jwc.jp/ - This is the website for the fake betting. It's all in Japanese, so it'll help if you know how to read it. If not:
1. Press the Red "SKIP" button on the bottom left.
2. Click the same red button again.
3. Click the furthest left yellow button on the bottom left.
4. Pick the furthest left of 3 yellow buttons. (Not sure what the differences are)
5. Pick the amount of credits you want to use to bet on. (Purple Button on the buttom right shows how much you have out of 20)
6. Pick 1 rider from each of the 5 races. (mouse over button to see what they look like)
7. Pick the large yellow button on the bottom left of the popup.
8. Click the same yellow button again.
9. Click the red button.
10. Click it red button again.
11. Watch the race.
Heres a few samples that I saw:
