Before Ville's Supermodel wip update takes the spotlight.... *j/k* 
Winners Circle almost reminds me of one of the Mattel Intellivision type console games.
Definitely a nice alternative compared to the poker game variety.

I'm sure I remember an earlier style horse gambling thing where you had little electro-mechanical horses 'racing' over a straight course in the middle of a console where up to 6 or maybe 8 people could put their money on various horses with different odds per horse!

Same here. I think it's the multiple single-color horse sprites, which was pretty common in INTV games.

This is why *ALL* Winners Circle were converted to 6-players roulettes. Early 80's operators didn't think it twice. They switched from a 4 players horse racing game to a 6 players roulette system, being the last one more remunerable.
Right now, I'm doing support to Lucky Roulette (up to 6 simultaneous players).

This has to be the only game I know of in MAME to use more than four players

You've never heard of 6 player X-Men? I guess you came along after it was a common topic of hysteria on boards, but still.

No, sorry. I saved this image years ago.
