A few years ago there was a Breeders Cup World Championship video game for PS2. Highly anticipated but dissapointed many people. Basicaly you could only whip your horse when instructed on screen.

There is actually a free horse racing PC game that is pretty good called Horse Racing Fantasy 3.

THe free horse racing computer game is garbage, but a bit addicting. Its really not free either. If you want to do anything you have to pay for it. I have spent over $100 on my phone to play the game. You can only move your horse period. I have bought over 100 prebuilt races for it, they are real life races with real horses. Its sucks, and I have not used it in a few months. For a while I would play it all day at work. This new G1 game lets you do everything. Change leads, hard drive, whip... Its very very detailed. If anyone has it for WII Ill play you online. I have never used my WII online, but it says it has the option.

What type of work allows you to play horse racing games all day? HF3 is good because its free plus I kinda like the 9 camera angles you can choose from.

I got my Champion Jockey copy today at Game Stop and cant wait to play this tonight.

The controls are great - you can configure the std PS3 controller in 3 different formats so if you're used to G1 Jock you can get pretty close to it.... Dunno, it just has the feel of one of those games that will be available everywhere for 19.99 by January - I'd wait, personally...
Thank you for the advice, I'll take you up on that.

I'm having too much fun with FIFA 12 right now anyway.
