[@carinacodorean9138]

Agreed they have improved a lot ❤

[@todaywithtilly2076]

So much improvement

[@littlemissditsy]

Agreed

[@tiffanylewis5366]

Don't worry about the bucks and tears, it all happens in the equestian world. Sadly not everything goes to plan or the way we want, so proud of you and Joey. Joey has came such a long way, I remember that you were looking for an amazing KZbin horse that we would fall in love with just like you, and that we did. You do such a good job with him! Love from Arizona

[@HorseLoversForever-ur8cg]

Doant worry, you did fantastic 😊

[@Vinni_For_Life]

Your just such a beatifull person Esme❤️

[@SMequestrian]

Awww Esme. You are such a kindhearted human being. It’s such a fantastic mindset to not worry about placements or scores but instead having fun with your beautiful horse. And still getting a fabulous purple rosette along the way! I know you always say how grateful you are to have Joey, but he is equally if not more lucky to have you. I’m so looking forward to your journey together. Love you! ❤

[@carysjenkins-iy6bu]

I just wanted to say that it was so lovely that you kept the part where you got emotional. Setbacks, injuries and life screw things up. What you felt and are feeling is so valid and relatable. Your doing fantastic, we’re here cheering you on 😝x

[@XxgraciealdcxX]

Esme is so inspiring!proud of both of you!Joey has came so far since his injury!cuties!

[@laurendouglas5794]

This was really sweet to watch. We should never be scared of showing our true emotions well done 💜🏵

[@TaylorKelceSwift]

I can’t believe it’s only been 5 months since Joeys injury. He’s so strong and beautiful ❤🐴

[@shybean3174]

I'm so glad those were happy tears, and I'm pleased Esme and Joey are back out there conqueroring the world together!

[@Niki_Editz]

I love how Esme always makes sure to post for us!!!

[@skylarsouthhearth1523]

Hey esme! You and joey have got this! Soon you'll feel like those scared times were decades away! I believe in you!

[@freerider1192]

Love you so much esme❤. Keep going. And joey,duke,willow,bruno,Casper, mickey,toby. Are all adorable as well.

[@isabeliavarone205]

CONGRATS ESME ON GETTING 6TH!!🎉🎉THAT IS AMAZING!! Especially since it's the first show back from the injury. You and Joey did incredibile🎉✨We are all super proud of you❤️

[@DauntlessDivergence-tb9zl]

Joey's so lovely, he looks like he's floating on air! Congratulations on his very healthy recovery Esme & Joey! ❣♥❤🥰

[@chickengirl3025]

Hey Esme! I just wanted to say that you and Joey are a big inspiration to me! My mare currently has fibrosis issues in the ligaments around her deep digital flexor tendon from old misstraining injuries. We don’t know what the extent of her abilities will be in the future, but I have remained hopeful that she will heal and seeing you guys back at it has given me even more hope. So thank you!

[@raythegoth]

Aww man! Now my waterworks are going xD so, so happy for you! Seeing you and Joey coming back from something so traumatic is just the best thing to see and it's truly a testament to your dedication to your horses. You did everything in your power to fix him, gave him time to heal and took things slow and here you both are shining together again!

[@RadhikaSharma-fq2gs]

Since joey is a dapple grey and your showing coat was grey, your shirt was white and joey has grey spots, you two look so amazing and professional

[@grahambloodworth4770]

Congratulations, all the preparation paid off. Never apologise for showing emotions, it shows that you are human. Great video, thanks for sharing.

[@elenapiovesan7107]

istg she's so sweet, this was so nice to watch. i wish everyone in the equestrian community had her mentality and love for horses

[@SpruceHollowStables]

Remember, even going there and competing is a win! I hope you two stayed safe and had fun. I’m happy for you, and there will always be more shows! I’m also going to a show tomorrow after track and field, sadly I’m missing the English part, but I’ll be thinking of you! Can’t wait to watch!

[@itz_jiya.official]

Esme you should be so proud of your progress! Not long ago you couldn’t even ride Joey and now you are at a show! You are such an amazing influence for young riders like me and many others ❤🫶🏼

[@maggiemant3409]

Totally understand the tears Esme, it’s been a long road for you all and very scary at times, you’ve worked so hard through this, so to see you so happy and Joey looking SO good I shed a tear with you , well done sweetheart you and Joey are awesome 🎊 🎉💕💕

[@Izzy11063]

I’m so happy for you Esme. I’m glad That you are able to get back on Joey and compete❤❤❤. You were a big part of why I ride and why I started riding

[@Horsing-around_12.]

Who loves when Esme posts ……. ME!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@catrionagarde4410]

Congratulations! 🎉 Don't worry about the happy tears, they're never embarrassing. Dressage lady here, didn't see the whole test but also thought he was a little on the lazy side but hey better than all explosive and jumpy. And a very nice outline he has. Btw. I practice my tests on foot, so very embarrassing if someone sees it 😅 but I've never forgotten where to go as yet. Also the horse doesn't remember and tries to take over.

[@naomihartman6623]

Crying shows your true emotions of being emotional about the ride and of how far he has gone well done esme

[@valerieallen2588]

So happy for you all.....and yes, I also shed few tears when watching this.

[@spirit.eventing]

I love you and joey so much you guys are the best! ❤ I ride at your old riding school at Jackie’s yard and I ride toffee and joey and more!! Love you so much Esme❤❤❤

[@jeniferrinehart1107]

Ohhhh….so happy for you! All tears are just fine, but happy tears are the best! ❤❤❤❤

[@chloeyorke9210]

[@horse.editz12]

I am so proud of you and Joey. It is a relief that he was able to pull through because I know what it is like as one of my very first ponies ended up passing away. I hope that there are many more memories that you can make with Joey. ❤

[@TashaWiebusch]

I'm so Happy Joey is back in action, you both are so strong❤

[@Katerina_Alexandra]

Joey's looking amazing! Such a good lad ❤ I'm so proud of him and Esme. I almost cried with her at the end!

[@isabelataylor691]

Awww 6th is amazing!! Girl Jesus loves you so much oh my goodness ❤️❤️ you are amazing!

[@Claire_02_13]

Great job! So happy to see Joey out and riding again! It’s interesting to see how in the UK you wear different colored show jackets. In the U.S show jumping we have to wear tan pants white show shirt black jacket. The most out there color I have probably ever seen is dark green. ❤❤❤

[@christinatsakanikas2093]

Esme, your voice sounded so happy, relieved and excited all at the same time after your test. You’ve got this!❤
