EX RACE HORSE’S EVENTING SEASON ROUND UP

[@Theproudestmama]

Looking forward to following your journey through '24 next. I hope you'll continue to show frankly the ups and downs that are the reality of competitive equestrianism. It's so important for the next generation of horsey girls to see just how much hard work, determination and even luck it truly takes to succeed. Have a very merry Christmas! 🎄🐎🎄🐎🎄🐎🎄🐎

You really are a perfect pairing. You're both slightly bonkers; but your patience with him has been amazing and so important. He's come on leaps and bounds (literally) 😂. Can't wait till next year to see what you achieve together 😊🧡

[@footluceeventing]

Aw thank you! He really is a bit cray cray… but yeah so am I 😂

[@debbieredmon5063]

I love Ember. He has so much potential. Don't be too stressed. He is learning and you can really see the difference. Just watched the first SUKO and you can really tell a difference from season II. I've been watching forever and have ridden OTBs most of my life. Always a challenge but when you click it is so worth it!

[@nicoleclarkson4007]

Your journey with Ember has been so inspirational. I have a young mare that has very nappy tendencies, all related to lack of confidence being out on xc by herself. Its been great seeing the progress you've made with Ember just continuing to get him out and improve his confidence.

[@dianehookham]

You and Ember are awesome together, i love watching you ride him, you look so good. Hes lucky he has you, your understanding of him and patience is the key, thats why hes come so far and doing so well, i loved this vlog, thank you so much for sharing with us.

[@caitlin6515]

ember is such a gorgeous horse, i really think he will be super special. he reminds me of my ottb mare who passed earlier in the year - we had our issues in the beginning but when we sorted through them she was just perfect. massive kudos to you for sticking with him & best of luck for the future, thank you for sharing his journey with us :)

BONNIE"S TROT In from the field is everything T_T so cute

[@CChloeMarie]

I’ve just subscribed and I love your videos already with you and Ember, I love the realism of “bringing them on” into something new, you’re not shy to show us the whole thing, your videos with Ember are just so educational to me! It inspires me to do this with my youngster when I back him 🥺🤍🫶🏼

[@suzannechance5876]

Ember is doing and looking great! Hasn't Justine been a marvel with him, she is truly a friend. Good to see you so happy, glad you are happily situated now! Gonna do some Christmas baking this year? Lol

[@trebrehrm]

I love watching your videos with Ember, I find them very encouraging. I have a very tricky ex racer mare who I'm making very slow progress with. She runs hell for leather at jumps then put dirty stops in, she gets really het up jumping but also appears to absolutely love it when it goes well. Flatwork and getting any sort of consistent connection with her is hit and miss. Switched her to a trust inno sense bit which she takes more than a metal one, but progress is so slow. Has your trainer really helped you? I don't get much assistance with my mare, just bits and bobs here and there, and all the trainers tell me she is very tricky, but she also have moments of brilliance so it's so frustrating :s

[@footluceeventing]

I think what’s helped me is not rushing things at all. Like I know he can jump big, but I’ve purposely kept the jumps small until we improved his technique. My trainer has been fab! Definitely find someone who can support you and give you consistent help, it really worked for me 👏

[@thepansthisthatandtheother7766]

Really enjoyed! Been awhile since you have done a Vlog. Next up soon I hope is Justine?

[@emily-ix5it]

Wow the difference in him is just amazing - you have done so well Lucy! I remember watching that pairs you did thinking how you had your hands full and I felt your frustration (your friend did so well leading you from her horse!). Anyway, he is now so fabulous and the product of your hard work, determination and great riding so well done! Love your vlogs 🥰

[@kippen64]

Ember is awesome. I have lost almost enough weight for an Ember of my own. Definitely light enough for a slightly bigger Thoroughbred. Thanks for the inspiration. Ember looks like so much fun.

[@footluceeventing]

Yes thats great to hear! I highly recommend!!

[@sues7589]

I love watching you and Ember and I love his pretty prancey gait. I also enjoy your hunting videos with the dogs. He has learned much this past year. Good for you, Lucy.

[@JennaPitcherTHX1138]

I love his gates and movement too. It's so much fun to watch. Lucy is a brilliant rider.

[@daphne_eqs927]

You and Ember are so inspirational, looking forward to watching this!!

[@robynhenry2607]

I love Ember his Progress is amazing!!! And he is a credit to you Lucy ❤

[@Whizzywelsh_Eventing]

Such a difference Welldone Lucy for perserveing! I feel like we have a similar journey with an external whizzy forward horse but nappy & backwards thinking at the same time . Some horses are just wired differently to others! Keep going 🙏🏼🙏🏼⚡️

[@ShaneGilbert-cx4th]

Hi I addmeryou for sharing your journey, AND I can't wait for swip up and kick on season 3.Take CARE ALL. And all the best for next year. 😃😃😃😃👍

[@bethany6148]

He looks in great condition for a TB in winter; he's definitely a good advert for Red Mills! It seems like this year you finally managed to find out how his brain works... Good luck for 2024 🤞🏻x

[@nikkicook4993]

Looking forward to watching your progress with Ember next year🥰 You have done so well with him so far!🥰

[@Katherinekirbydressage]

What a transformation! And how exciting for your partnership going forwards🙌🏻

[@helenhinds8581]

Bonnie is amazing! I remember when you first got her and she was completely ferel. Look at her now! Superstar 🌟

[@marneymcgovern4285]

This was so fun to watch one right after another to really see the change!! He has not been easy and it has been so fun watching you and Justine trouble shoot and figure things out! Thank you for sharing 😁

[@jessparish8165]

It’s good for the nutrient as I own a TB .. may look at getting the ultra care cubes

[@Siobhan_Shivaun]

Congrats, you've done an amazing job with him!! 💖💖

[@chrisdouglass7962]

Thankful you have Justine!! She's helped you and Ember so wonderfully, and you and he worked so hard thru camp and I agree he was the best behaved 😁❤️ I mean seriously, he let um I can't remember who, Tina or Emily (?), rode him 😄🥰🥰

[@annabel_peter]
