A resolution would be fantastic ### 4/5 — Great game but… *2024-11-26, version 1.19* Loved playing this game, no other jockey game compares to the realism of this, however, after recently updating to iOS 18.1.1 it seems to always crash when launching the app. Is there going to be any fix? Would hate for there to not be a fix for this ### 4/5 — Potentially awesome.... *2016-11-27* ...if more instructions were available in the app. Especially for those of us who are not horse racing experts. Otherwise, a VERY awesome game, almost PC-like. The horse database and info alone are completely detailed to the last hoof! ### 4/5 — Good game *2016-04-28* This game is very fun. I would give 5 stars but the buttons need to be moved, i will be in the middle of a career and i will inadvertently hit the new game button and it erases all of the saved career information. That is the only thing i don't like. I own all of the SO games great job!!! ### 4/5 — Good game but... *2016-02-20, version 1.13* Why isn't aintree on here and the grand national? Seems a big miss ### 1/5 — Mrdsquire *2016-01-23, version 1.12* Won't even let me race as it just crashes every time! Waste of money and an absolute disgrace! ### 1/5 — Poor *2016-01-03, version 1.09* Love starters orders and g1 jockey but this is just a poor quality mashup of the two. Tutorials are awful, UI is awful, low memory warnings on a clean iPhone 6.. ### 5/5 — 🐎🐎🐎 *2016-01-03, version 1.09* Great game got it on PC and iOS. Only down side is the interface it's quite small and hard to interact on phones but apart from that 5/5 👍🏻 ### 2/5 — Keeps crashing - not good for 4.99. Refund or update *2016-01-03, version 1.09* As per title. Keeps coming up with memory warning. Pity as is ok. Their other games are good. The jumps one is flawed as you keep falling as the buttons don't work. Please sort it out! ### 3/5 — Good game but glitches. *2015-12-31, version 1.09* Keep getting warning: memory warning every time I start the game, no other apps running and loads of free space on my phone ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Won’t work *2025-03-26, version 1.19* Game don’t work ### 1/5 — Game is not working *2025-03-10, version 1.19* As soon as try start it up it won’t load ### 1/5 — Game won’t load *2024-12-06, version 1.19* Just bought the game and it won’t load any help? ### 1/5 — Bugs *2024-07-03* App will not open keeps crashing ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2021-06-06, version 1.19* What a piece of scripted garbage, it’s impossible to win a race. You can have the lead with half a furlong left and all of sudden your horse loses all its speed, constantly getting a silly amount of reputation deducted is totally demoralising. Avoid this, save your money unless you like being done over by blatant scripting. THE BIGGEST PILE OF S*IT I HAVE EVER PLAYER. REFUND NOW. ### 1/5 — Boring *2017-10-24, version 1.19* Bad shame game ### 1/5 — Don't buy it, flawed. *2017-05-06, version 1.19* Could be a great game, but the whip button simply doesn't work as it should, also if it looks like you have run the perfect race you will either jump the last or second last 'slow' ,or mysteriously fall, 9 times out of 10, meaning you will not win the race. Don't waste your money. ### 1/5 — Fix the game *2017-01-24, version 1.19* The game always crashes when I try to race.I am on iOS ### 1/5 — Dash *2016-02-24, version 1.13* Same problem as mrdsquire 😩 soon as try to race it crashes ### 1/5 — Awful *2016-01-29, version 1.12* This game is dreadful do not buy worse £4.99 I have spent I want a refund ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best jockey game with realistic racing *2025-03-03, version 1.19* Excellently suited to mobile, this is by far the best jockey game and is more of a sim compared to pure arcade rival stars. I love jockey rush and would love a more fleshed out version. Riding for certain trainers/stables and some kind of xp or experience points related to riding the same horse multiple times. Definitely scope to develop more riding controls and would prefer a more gallop racer approach to jumps. Hoping jockey mode in the upcoming SO8 is essentially an upgraded Jockey Rush 2. Great work dev. ### 5/5 — 💪🏿 *2022-12-14, version 1.19* Needs multiplayer and more jockeys ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2016-10-08, version 1.19* This game is awesome, the attention to detail and realism is great, I've been playing horse racing games on PC and console since 1998 and this is the most satisfying realistic I've ever played- I'm just sorry I can't play it on a bigger screen than my phone! ### 5/5 — A First Past the Post Winner *2016-05-14, version 1.19* This is a fantastic game in the mold of previous classic jockey sim, Gallop Racer. It is a perfect game for quick pick up play, but be warned as you can easily get sucked in to that "just one more race" and soon enough an hour has past. This is simply the best horse racing game on IOS. I've only owned it a week and there has already been a few updates, suggesting the developer is keen to make this a winner. If you love horse racing, I can't recommend it enough. ### 5/5 — Bug fix needed *2016-05-01, version 1.16* Great game but now crashes at first day of Cheltenham festival! Please fix :-( ### 5/5 — Best Horse racing game *2016-04-06, version 1.16* Easily the best horse racing game, I think it would be great if we could change levels as seems a bit hard. ### 5/5 — Jockey Rush *2016-03-14, version 1.15* This is a wonderful game tricky to master at first but once you get the hang of it it's amazing can't wait to ride in Grand National ### 5/5 — Great fun *2016-01-29, version 1.12* The last patch has resolved a few problems I was having and the game is now perfect for me. Really enjoy trying to figure out the right strategy for reaching targets in a race, and as my reputation is improving I’m now getting the chance to enter some of the big races and hoping to win some of them soon. ### 5/5 — Very good. *2016-01-22, version 1.12* The key to this game is to study the form of all trainer offers rather than picking the highest finishing position offer. This way you can work out the horse most capable of meeting the trainers expectations. Once your reputation raises the game opens up and offers in the big races start to come in. My only gripe is that the game lasts five seasons as the more you play the better it gets. The battle mode is a bit of a gimmick so turn it off. Overall a great pick up and play horse racing game with a realistic sim underneath that puts it apart from the rest. ### 5/5 — Great Game! *2016-01-08, version 1.09* I have been a big fan of the Starters Orders series on PC and was delighted to see this game available for iPad. Works perfectly on my fourth generation iPad and thoroughly enjoying this so far. Great work! 😀 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
