Fun for any horse lover [Posted on 2008-02-16]
The graphics with this game are really great! You can choose the color of the horse, and the game gives you a few basic colors and patterns. You can also choose what you look like from a few different pre-made models. Grooming the horse is pretty simple and straight forward. The game gives you an option to free ride and you are taken to an outdoor ring that is set up with a few jumps to aid you in practicing. You are also given a couple different tutorials to learn the basics while collecting stars that will earn you rewards. The more stars you collect, the more rewards you receive. A personal trainer will guide you through each practice session and she will coach you as you complete each course.

What I found nice about this game is that the horse will automatically jump the oxford if going at the proper speed. If you are riding below a canter, the horse will balk at the jump. There are ground markings that will guide you around as you ride through the courses.

If you love to ride and/or are a horse lover, then I'm sure you will get a lot of enjoyment from this game. I've only had this game for a day or so, and I can see already it's going to be addicting!

I can't get it to work! [Posted on 2008-03-10]
This game looks SO good and I really want to play it but we can't get it to work on my computer. It might just be the fact that it's a little older, but we can get the game all installed, and it just won't run. I don't know, but i REALLY want to play it.

Game only works so far and then quits [Posted on 2008-06-16]
The game only plays so far and then it shows a message and quits on certain shows. I have email ATARI three times and they keep losing my email or the ticket. I bought this game 6 months ago and I am still trying to get a fix from Atari and sent them the diagnostics three times now and never get a response. A company that doesn't seem to care about it's consumers and I even went on their web site for help and others were just as frustrated as me. The game is fun when it plays but the company doesn't give any tech support. I will never buy another Atari games.
