About The Winner's Circle

When a horse crosses the finish line first, the celebration that follows is as storied as the race itself. The winning owner, trainer, and jockey gather in the winner's circle, a small, sacred patch of turf, while a groom drapes a blanket of roses over the champion's withers. Photographers press close, glasses are raised, and for one golden moment the noise of the grandstand softens into something that feels almost like reverence.

    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
