Great lesson! That is such useful advice about the one pull so the horse doesn’t start pulling more. Tricky riding a hot green horse, but you are really good. I find these vlogs so nice because we can all identify and use the info!! Thank you so much for sharing.

Reminds me of my ex racehorse so much!! Tricky ride, catty/clever/athletic but tense and has nappy moments 🤦♀️

How about walk trott the whole set? And after a fence make him stand. He's just rushing at everything. Also calming cookies?? After all he is a firey redhead 😆 Justine is so good, love her ❤️

The more I see of Justine the more I love her. You did very, very well, Lucy. You are brave on Ember, who is still easily reverting to race-horse brain. And, he is looking superb too, btw, that later-in-the-day light just emits warmth from his shiny coat. He is coming along very nicely. Thank you for taking us along :)

My father has had a couple of ex racehorses. He has still got one of them. He has even done the re train of the racehorse event back in 2018 late in the year at Aintree race course and a couple of local shows

Ah Thoroughbreds 🤣 watching your videos with Ember has helped me realise I haven't been alone all these years in dealing with TB quirks. One of mine (not raced) is point and shoot, and my OTTB does the can can into every jump and always switches canter leads (so annoying!) . Seems like Embers a mixture of both! Both are epic xc though and do everything best at gallop 🤣 You're riding him really well and are doing a super job.

Flicky toes in canter too, I didn't think that was possible :). Love how he is in speed mode as default lol. Great video x

Lucy, love your vlogs, which have had a huge influence on my life - Thank You! My steed is a Vespa from the house of Piaggo - Noble, faithful and stalwart, he has never let me down. When I weave through traffic I imagine that his side mirrors are ears and his headlights, his mane - “Gid Boooy Vespasian!”

It's Ember's fault that I am on a diet. Being a fan of Ember has me wanting to be light enough to ride horses like him. Have lost 27kg so far.

Great lesson and insights. It sounds like Justine could do with a trainer / student headset walkie talkie type of thing (I am sure it has a proper name) as she is sounding like she’s done quite a few lessons in windy arenas this week. Or maybe it’s all the good hound outings…?

Great lessons for you with Justine girls she’s a marvelous teacher yep Lucy always sit quietly on a tb. Ember looks beautiful and happy and that is down to you, your a super rider so enjoy yourself. Your friend on the grey was great too and your all lovely kind girls it’s nice to see.tfs😎🏇😎

What a great trainer! You did a fantastic job. I used to ride an OTTB mare who got very excited and strong between fences. It was a blast though and taught me a lot. But that was a while ago, im just getting back into the saddle after a ling break. Id probably die if if I got back on something like that at this stage lmao.
