Donkey (Dodgy) Derby.
A immediate response via an automated email that speaks volumes, clearly they know they sell tat and expect a range of issues regarding the toys they sell.

Purchased this for our grandchildren, why did we decide to disappoint them on Christmas Day!
A complete lack of any real instructions on how the betting system works, how winnings work, how much money players start with… it’s like it was written by a child.
Then the game itself:
Race one order 5, 4, 6, 2, 3, 1.
Race two order 5, 4, 6, 2, 3, 1.
Race three order 5, 4, 6, 2, 3, 1.
Detect a pattern?
We adults decided to test it a further 4 or 5 times moving the pieces randomly between tracks, the order each time, yep 5, 4, 6, 2, 3, 1.
How upsetting for young children on Christmas Day.
