I got this game about a year ago and i love it! but i've only won one race because like i'll stay in the pack and when i ask my horse to run it runs for like 30 seconds then doesn't run anyone so that annoys me but its fun!

So Realistic! Continued...

I know, I'm a bit of a nuicance, but I forgot some things. I know that Gallop Racer 06 is out, but DO NOT buy it. I read all the reveiws, and it sounds SO BORING! All of you who own Gallop Racer 04, If you like the trainers, and the jockeys DO NOT BUY IT! I REAPEAT DO NOT BUY IT! The reveiws say that they were wiped completely! But anyway...

So here's the thang: I got a little bored with it. I had had so many horses, but then they all burned out on the same year. It's so sad. I miss em'. Blue Cupid retired, but he wasn't good enough for the pasture, so he's gone for good. I ahve a new filly though. Her name is Serena's Song. Her Dam is Desert Spring and her Sire is Fine Express.

AWESOME Game

This is the best Horse Racing game that I've ever owned. You start out just being a jockey for one person, but after you win another trainer will approach you, and as you get better, you get more and more offers for rides. Eventually, you get to start training horses of your own, and after you win a G1 race with one of those horses, you can buy a paddock and start breeding. I HIGHLY recomend this game for any Horse racing lover

This Game is Great!!!

GR2003 is my favorite game. I'm expecting even more fun from 2004. The last game was (and still is) very addictive. Once I start playing it, I can't stop! I was surprised that I did not win every horse race like I do car games. But as I got used to the strategy of when I speed up the horse and slow it down, I started winning. I love to bet on the horses. It's like there are real horse races in my living room!! I'm a top-rank 11 year old jockey, and plan the same for the next game. I'm expecting to get this game for my birthday, then I'll be a top-rank 12 year old jockey!!:-)

Fun for all horse lovers of all ages

it is so fun even though Shiba freaks me out, you will see who he is later in the game, or if you are not smart and pick him to be your main trainer ( i picked Cook ). This game is perfect out of all the Gallop Racers

My Favorite Game!

I loved this racing, horses, and of course babies, too.
My babies grown up into champions. Like Blackjack's Baby. Now she was retired and has a beautiful boy foal. She was special. She beaten Top Ranks in Special Races. Her Dam is Smoky Sphere who was here for 15 years for breeding. Very good mother I've seen. Her four foals was top ranks. Smoky Heat is hers too. He is beautiful sorrel stallion sired by Tender Value. It is a AWESOME GAME!!!! PLEASE BUY THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!

This game is just like the last one, GREAT!

GR 2004 is a great game to play. You have to get used to the controls, but after that, you can't stop playing it. It is fun to bet your money on longshots or even -money favorites in the betting mode, but the career mode is great. Loved it.

THE BEST HORSE GAME EVER!

I got this game about a month ago, and since then I have not been able to put it down! You start out as the lowest jocky riding the slowest horses. it takes some time to get the hang of it,and even in easy mode it's hard to win.it took me a while to win, but now i'm the best jocky! you can win many awards. after a while, you can earn a My Horse, a horse you are main jocky of. you can retire a my Horse for breeding and make Original Horses,a horse thatyou can watch grow from a foal to a two year old. once your original horse is a two year old, you can negotiate to ride it. i think this game is the best game ever!!!!

So Realistic!

Gallop Racer 2004 is THE Game to buy! It Rocks! So you start out as a rookie jockey riding the lowest, slowest, most delicate horses in the entire world! I recomend Nozawa, he's got pretty good horses. So anyway, It takes a couple of years to get a lot of horses. But when you run across a good one, You can win a G1 race wich means---BABIES! LOTS AND LOTS OF CUTE, ADORABLE, CHAMPION BABIES THAT YOU GET TO WATCH GROW! It is awesome, but be warned. When you breed, only put your best racehorses in the pasture. I tried to get some nice young uns, and my first four turned out ransid. Here are all the names of my Original Horses from oldest to youngest("AND" means they were born the same year): Special Bear (6), Rum Racer (5), Blue Cupid AND Blue Sky (4), Traffic's Heart (3), Cupid's Girl AND Dream Catcher (2), Dream Victory AND Free Cat (1), In Stride AND Eastern Lily (0). My best mares so far have been Risky Dream and Desert Spring. My best Stallions so fare have been Easy Traffic, Dancing Monster, and Gray Line.

GREAT, GREATER, AND MORE GREAT!

Gallop Racer 2004 is a great game! But don't be fooled by the "SO easy to play!" signs. It's great, but you need to work to win! You can't expect to win the first time out, or you'll lose until finally find "The Horse", as I call it. But if you have patience, you'll finally win a race, therefore giving you your next goal: G1. These are top class horses, so you need a top class horse to beat them. While I have won these races with C and B rated horses, I'd try to get a S or SS horse (a.k.a. REALLY good horse) to do the right the first time. For those of you who like to be yelled at(I won't ask why), choose Shibayama or Cook as your first trainer. Those of you who don't really care, I'd choose Nozawa! You have been warned that Free Mode and Battle Mode are VERY boring! But that is just my experience! And remember: you can be the best rider in the game, but it isn't just the jockey. The horse has to be good, too. Well, I have to go play Gallop Racer! Good Luck, and thanks for reading!
