What a Gift! The Beautiful Cleveland Bay-Wow! A bit like an oversized Morgan possibly? 💖 I could easily go back to the Home of my Ancestors and slip right in Into the green fields ~ Into the life & the people The Horses look carefree and have kept a bit of their true Wild spirit alive. This breed needs to be Saved! This was a Lovely Video with a Sense of Great Scottish Love & Happiness 🍀💖🐎 ~

This is so true. In winter when you are wallowing in mud, you wonder why am I doing this, but in summer with new foals and evening rides across the Northumberland fells, it is heaven on earth.

Cleveland bays are the creme de la creme of the British horses! Sweet natured and versatile and sadly underrated!

[@VK-qe7if]

I could tell which breed it was before reading the thumb nail. The Cleveland Bay, is one of my favourite breeds of horses, so versatile they can do just about anything just like the breeder said. Thank you for your beautiful video on this much loved breed, but sadly not spoken about enough in Equestrian circles , but I think they are an amazing all round breed of horse. I love them. ❤ 🐴

[@thecatpi4150]

I have been binge-watching this channel for the last five hours, and I am shocked at only having 22k subscribers. After all this traveling great content and editing since 2017, it is really hard to understand why it doesn't have well over a hundred subs.I am totally shocked and really think you deserve more .

[@callienn]

I agree! She has twice as many now, but I only JUST found this channel last week! The content is amazing!

[@dawnf2z1]

I’m binge watching again, it reminds me of some of the horses and ponies I’ve had the privilege to ride and be with. Fascinating, uplifting series. My heart is full!

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

Awww, this makes me so happy to hear. Thank you!

[@cindyj5522]

What a lovely breed. I like calm, kind horses who take care of their riders. Could've watched more about this one.

[@kriskay7012]

What a beautiful breed! Enjoying your quest rides ♥

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

Glad you are enjoying them, thanks for watching!

[@sixxmesixx]

A breed that must be saved!

[@davidjonathangudlaugson4768]

I read that Queen Elisabeth played a fundamental [and very quiet] role, in saving the Cleveland Bay, breed.

[@sambesisky5517]

Oh that breed would be perfect for me. And I love bays! Jack is so darling. Beautiful face. I also enjoyed your interview very much🖤❤️🧡

[@Cabingirlandrandomcrap]

We have Cleveland Bays here in Virginia at Colonial Williamsburg as well as the American Cream Draft (only draft to originate in America!) you need to come visit!

[@sobatdin9593]

Great horses and what a lovely couple loving their horses with so much passion . Stunning animals look very happy in the heard environment thank you fir video very short though 😀looked you enjoyed yourself 💜💜💜

✋🏻 I am owned by a Cleveland Bay - grandson of Levenmouth Kyle, as a matter of fact! (At the beginning of the video Mr Bennett refers to his uncle having the Levenmouth stud and buying Forrest Royal Laird, who sired Kyle.) Wouldn’t trade him for the world.

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

Awww, I love it! That is so cool! What do you and Kyle do together? 🥰

[@jb2048]

@@DiscoverTheHorse I would love to have met Kyle - I have his grandson Jackson. We’re in the US, and we primarily fox chase. He will tell you he is NOT a show horse, but we do three shows every summer with the Mid-Atlantic Cleveland Bay series, just for the breed awareness. We’ll be at Upperville, for example, and people who’ve ridden their entire lives will come up to say they’ve always heard of a Cleveland Bay, but they’ve never met one. Which is why we do it!

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

@@jb2048 Such a great way to promote the breed! Sounds like you both have lots of fun together! 🥰

[@leilawitherspoon503]

yes I've been waiting for this one ☺️

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

I'm so happy I finally got to film them!!

[@madalynbelzowski6884]

Very interesting My daughter has always wanted a horse, she is getting up there in age and she I'm sure has never heard of this breed. When I see her around Labor Day week end I'll tell her about your expeditions. She raises collies the only bad side of this is I'll probable have to be knee deep in collies.

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

Thank you! (I have a border collie, so that sounds like a lovely place to be! 😊)

[@danaventura5998]

It is my understanding that they were mostly used for carriage driving they started to disappear as their job disappeared.

[@bettiehass4091]

I am fascinated by your Discover the Horse series. I have owned or ridden a Paso Fino a thoroughbred an Appaloosa a Tennessee Walking horse and a Chincoteague pony a sport horse and many grade horses. I am 68 and ride a 20 yr old thoroughbred. He and I get along famously. I’m quarantined with Covid and am enjoying this series.

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

Thanks for joining me on the adventure, Bettie! Hope you feel better soon. You've ridden lots of fun breeds! What type of riding do you like to do with your Thoroughbred? I haven't filmed the Chincoteague Pony yet, just saw some photos of the annual pony swim. Looks like quite the event!

[@bettiehass4091]

ive been looking for a cleveland bay stallion to stud with my thoroughbred mare :(

You need to visit Emma Massengale. She has Connemara ponies. She does wonders with them. I've watched all her videos. Enjoy your videos.

[@DiscoverTheHorse]

She has such fun videos and is an amazing equestrian. I would love to meet her someday! Thank you!

[@edwinsemidey1992]

I never understood breeders, I am a lover of Morgan's but yet alot of the top Stallions don't have male heirs because they Geld 99% of them , which is killing the Morgan breed, and alot of other 1s as well.

[@MCCreativeCrafting]

You only need a couple of stallions from a given bloodline to be producing progeny. You want diversity of bloodlines to ensure inbreeding issues don't arise. So you keep the most outstanding and geld any that are not going to be used for breeding to keep the quality high and also allow those geldings to live a quieter life without all those silly hormones running around making them want to get frisky and fighty.

[@edwinsemidey1992]

@@MCCreativeCrafting The problem is like the Morgan breed where all the good Stallions are deceased and a good portion of them came from the Lippit lines and to improve the breed they Always went into the Lip[pit lines to improve short comings. Because the Lippit's were the closets to the original Morgan's .

Put down a lot of korean and world's stock. And then d'ont raise it up~~!! I's right~!! 🐢......
