Advantages: Wii gives advantage of realistic controls

Disadvantages: Once you get the hang of it game gets a bit boring

G1 jockey is really great for horseracing fans but is also a great buy for all the family to have a go at.
You basically have to ride a horse thorugh a race through the eyes of a jockey, trying to judge when to whip the horse, timing the start and judging you pace through the race.
A good innovation is that you can simulate the movements of a jockey by using the two parts of the wii remote as whips, steering etc. or alteratively you can change the setting so you just have to press buttons on the remote for a less energetic experience.
Their are different game types according to how far you want to buy in to the experience ranging from a simple arcade mode to a more in depth mode where you are basically following the career of a jockey.
One criticism i would make is that once you get the hang of winning the attraction of the game is over and it gets a bit boring.

Summary: Worth buying if you can get it at a reasonable price
