A racing toy is a toy horse or rolton that can be placed on the ground and raced. It utilizes a script similar to the AllMine script.

Analyze

You analyze your tiny white rolton and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions.

The creator has also provided the following information:
This rolton is a mechanical racing toy that may be altered by a talented merchant.  Racing toys come in two varieties: roltons (the original) and horses.  This particular racing toy is a: rolton.  Alterations require that it must remain a toy rolton, with "rolton" as the noun, and the word "toy" MUST be included in the article (or adjective) field.

You can DROP and GET the tiny white rolton.  To attune it to yourself, HUG it.  Once you do that, only you can start it racing or pick it up.  To unattune it, PINCH it.  To wind up the rolton, TURN it while it is in your hands, and to start it on its merry way once it is on the ground, NUDGE it.

You get no sense of whether or not the rolton may be further lightened.
