I found what seems to be the first review of this game. I honestly expected it to suck, but apparently it's quite good. If only they'd charge less than €50...

Graphics: 8
Amazingly this is by far one of the better-looking Wii games on the market, with gorgeous locations, realistic horses and impressively fluid animation.

Sound: 8
The music throughout is pleasingly soothing and melodic, whilst the voice work is plentiful and of a very clear quality.

Gameplay: 8
Being able to take full control of your horse’s movements using the motion controls is joyful and the various modes on offer are certainly very thorough and wide ranging.

Value: 9
With lots of customisation, fun to be had in the main modes, horse caring aspects, multiplayer fun and even a large selection of extra mini-games, this is one heck of a well-rounded horse simulation game that will satiate any fan's needs.

Final Score: 8
My Horse & Me is probably the most developed horse-riding package on the market, with a perfect blend of intense championship competition, genteel, relaxed horse caring and fun mini-games being included, along with the option for multi-player entertainment as well. The first game to ever carry to official FEI license has most certainly set the standard for future horse riding titles and shown that fledgling developer W!Games is more than capable of playing with the big boys of the Gaming Industry.
