This circular piece of plank has got a small hole bored in it, and as the animals careers, the water underneath rushes up to the sky in the shape of delightful fountain. The buffalo or pair of buffaloes, which while running is able to send the water to the highest level, that is marked by a plantain branch of leaves suspended above is declared to be the winner of the race. Betting also takes place during the race.
