Thanks mate, so I'm not sure which race you are referring too =p
If you mean race, as in race of people I can only say there is the human race but in terms of pets there will be multiple kinds as you can see in this screen.
If you mean race as in horse racing, I do have plans to implement two different kinds, animal and vehicle. But honestly nothing has been worked on in terms of this yet.
Finally if you observe the screen you can get a lot of hints as to what will be in the game. For example, pets that follow you will be in it and have already been completed. Sheep or Grunty mounts will be in the game along with broom stick mounts that fire....bubbles!? Haha other things to find, this Holiday screen tells all!
