About Hold Your Horses

Hold Your Horses is a 5x4 horse-themed slot from Design Works Gaming with 40 paylines, double symbols and a respin feature. Each horse can land as a single or a double symbol, and a double counts as two matching positions on a line, so a few symbols can make a long winning run.


There are two bonus routes. A full first reel of Bonus symbols locks in place and starts respins, and covering the whole grid with Bonus symbols leads to Free Spins. Inside Free Spins, a first reel filled with one horse sets off the Hold Your Horses Bonus. Stakes at Midnite start from £0.20 per spin, the maximum win is listed by Midnite as 500, and Midnite rates the game high volatility.


How to Play Hold Your Horses

Choose your stake and spin. Wins pay on 40 lines from left to right. Double horse symbols count as two positions each, so a mix of single and double horses can add up to a high symbol count on one line. The game logo is the Wild and substitutes for every symbol except the Bonus symbol.


The respin feature starts when the first reel is fully covered in Bonus symbols. Those symbols lock and the other reels respin, and the respins continue while at least one new Bonus symbol lands. Fill the whole grid with Bonus symbols and Free Spins follow. Check the in-game help screen for the exact number of Free Spins, as sources differ.
