My horse BUCKS me off *show jumping fail*

Ember's first show jumping lesson for a while, and aside from the unplanned dismount, I was very happy with how he's come back for the first session. Of course we have lots to work on, but I'm positive we'll be able to go out at BE90 confidently next month 🤞

That was a great bit of jumping girls just that one little blip Lucy in the departure lounge. To be fair you rode him with great determination after that and you looked bloody fantastic. You remind me of myself when I got dumped I got back on board and rode just like you so it happens to us all the time and makes us better riders well done sweet girl and keep bloody smiling suits you . Great lesson Justine as always.tfs.🤗🏇🤗ps Have fun while your in Italy 🇮🇹

[@annaabney1420]

Don't apologize! Like you said, you're human. You don't owe it to anyone to be peppy and upbeat all the time. I just love Justine. She's hilarious. So glad you weren't injured and thank you for including the footage! 🤣

[@CarolStJohn-ev9ry]

Justine is a great teacher and you are a great student... and Ember is full of beans!

[@lemmebeawinnerequestrian7555]

Lucy, you are so brave! Ember is a little pocket rocket. I swear I would just die and cry if I had to ride some if his shenanigans ❤😂 so good to see Jess and Justine❤

[@patriciaemms1902]

The boy has so much talent and is too brave for his own good, he is epic, well done Lucy, Justine understands him so well you will be flying round the course smiling and all your urgh moments will be blown away 🎉xx

[@ellenbell-mcmanus7433]

don't apologise for being human sometimes you just need a bit of a moan to get it out of your system x

[@lottagreenmalmqvist7651]

You’re not a burden to share your pain. We should understand you because we all have problems in life. You’re not alone. You are such a talented rider and I love the way your ride. It looks easy. Bless your heart. 🌸

[@guacamole4258]

blooming well ridden Lucy!! He's a spicy chap isn't he!!

[@RowanDrift]

I think you did really well, you can see him gradually relax into it and both of got better and better , justices a good teacher x

[@dianehookham]

Lucy i can't believe how much you put into these horses that take more than your average horse, I thought about it after you got Ember, and I look forward to every vlog you do. I take my hat off to you girl, you keep going, and every real horse person that watches this knows that your real, your vlogs are real, riding horses is not always sunshine and unicorns. I want to say he was thinking with his belly, but not in the normal way you would use that. Your jumping was brilliant once again, thank you. 😊

[@kippen64]

Thank goodness for a nice arena surface. Much nicer stuff to land on. I wish that Justine was my instructor. The right instructor is hard to find. Have fun in Italy.🎉 Ember will be in safe hands.

[@ForceFreeTrainergirl06]

Glad that you have come out of your depression and now you're back in the swing. Ember is a little bugger that is for sure and it's a testament to you that you persevere with him, when he can be really hard to ride. I'd really love to see you with a nice horse who's much easier and less stressful to deal with!!!

[@plaasmeisie55]

A few days ago I fell off my Thoroughbred for the first time😂. I fell with my hip on a rock. Luckily not broken and I got up and went on 😂. Love Ember 🤗

[@thehannahchanceteam9617]

Oof that sounds like it hurt hope you ok

[@MarionFeltham]

Apart from the ‘exit stage left’ moment, you did beeping well Lucy. Hope that mojo is well and truly on its way back.

[@fullerhorsediary]

The pregnant belly had me rolling! I couldn’t unsee that after 😂 and the blue looks stunning on him ❤

[@beeholtzclaw7935]

Holy comoly!!! That's a hell of a buck!!! AND you almost stuck it!!! Always enjoy watching you guys!

[@dboley1950]

I am so so glad you are okay. 😮❤🙋‍♀️

[@emmamonks1982]

Aww bkess😅he actually spooked when he saw the lady at the roll top that wasn’t there before. I actually thought omg she’s gonna sit it😅 great jumping though, not so long ago that would of sent Embers brain into a spin but he recovered quickly

[@Theagingequestrian5335]

That was a bronc buck! Preceded by a small one and then a couple of others after the bronc. Wow! You almost held on, too. Nice work. He definitely seemed to enjoy all the jumping, and did look like you both gained in confidence. I mean, he can leave one out and cover soooo much ground, but was coming back to you. Maybe being a little chubby was a good thing. 😂 Probably gave him a ton of energy.

[@janl8683]

Glad you weren't hurt too much following your departure, but Justine 's laughing made me laugh...ooops sorry 😂

[@emmamonks1982]

@@janl8683 are u talking about Justine’s real laugh or the Fake high pitched laugh that Lucy edited in to cover up the bleeps when she swore at Ember. Lol

[@gemmahedges653]

The instructor sounds like Kerry from the series this country with her cousin kurtan I just had in my head her giving you a lesson 😂🙈😏 fab video though you land better than I do I'm past 40 and dont bounce like I used to 😬😂🤕

[@libssss4019]

Cant wait to watch, i love your vids! x

[@jenniferquinn5010]

We all have low days. You are being human. I did notice he was not throwing his head in your face as much as he has done in the past. Baby steps in the right direction. That buck was very difficult to recover from, well ridden after. Hope you do not have too much of a bruise. 😮

[@VIPEqTHud]

Lucy you do such a good job. It requires a lot of feel and patience and fitness and balance, AND bravery to ride sensitive horses like Ember, and the tune you get out of him is Fab. And please do moan. It’s not moaning, it’s reality, and you are human!

[@annjohnson8437]

We've all been there!!!! ❤

[@juliabanes204]

Agreed - you're human and not a robot! Thank you for including the fall - it shows that even top riders can have unexpected dismounts and that it's ok, it's part of the entire experience. I think I was told around 10yrs old that you can only count yourself a rider once you've gone into double-digits of falls, lol! Hope you've got some Arnica Ice for your hip! (or epsom salts in a bath)

[@nancypratt9400]

Hugs for after the fall Lucy ❤

[@trudebower1576]

I admire your loyalty to this horse Lucy. It continues to move and jump awkwardly, while being extremely tense and uptight. I still believe something is not right physically.

[@justinewardeventing]

I can assure you physically he is 💯 but he is tense and that’s because he struggles to contain his own power but es getting there

[@trudebower1576]

Has he even been for a lameness work up? Or an MRI?

[@justinewardeventing]

@@trudebower1576 if he’s not lame he wouldn’t need it but he has had a full physical work up when I first had him otherwise I wouldn’t have sold him to Lucy

[@justinewardeventing]

@@trudebower1576 I refer you to my previous response

[@user-wz4rh4mj9p]

My hot little throughbred was same same to a jump "let me at em" an instructor I had helped by getting us to stop after a jump then a couple of jumps so he didn't really know if he would be going or stopping mess with his mind. Enjoy your trip.

We get you Lucy. All of us have our moments. I love how you guys were both doing your own thing out there for awhile.. LOL Poor Justine, she cracks me up. My instructor would haven been screaming his head off. Ember is feeling spicy. Man down.

[@fleetskipper1810]

Both horses were feeling fresh-a cooler day in the middle of summer can do that! Yea haw!

[@devils.advocate2354]

Well ridden Lucy… 👏👏

[@happyhackerwithambition]

listening to you and justine is like me and laura ...lol so funny x

[@marneymcgovern4285]

Love this!! I have to say I love your vlogs as you all would be the type of peeps that would be fun to hang around and ride with😁

[@valeriefergusson269]

Your so brave Lucy well done xx

[@lesliepark3370]

That’s was naughty! You wrote the first two bucks pretty good and then slipped off balance. Glad you weren’t hurt.

He’s a cheeky boy! 😂😂

Well done Lucy, glad your not hurt after falling off 🫣I wouldn’t be as brave as you putting up with some of Embers spicy-ness 🌶️

[@LuBushell]

I feel like you need to start doing 105/110 show jumping that maybe might slow him down a bit and make him think 😅🤣💫💫💫💫💫

Honestly don’t apologise for having a bit of a moan, I feel like as humans saying these things out loud is necessary. We’ll sat on the most OTT reaction to trot poles I’ve seen for a while 😂

[@biggothepiggo]

I mean, we all know that I'm a pathetic Justine fan girl, but I think she failed you here. Don't get me wrong, the coaching was just as fantastic as it always is, but I don't think Ember appreciated the initial body shaming. His mindset was clearly, "If I were pregnant, could I buck like this? Or leap like this? Or launch from this very long spot? Or race through this line so quickly? I think not!" Just kidding! Great lesson and riding! Ember is Ember and the whole team does a great job with him! Glad you are okay!

[@ihay472]

Oh goodness. People who are always cheerful seem so fake. I'd rather follow regular people.

[@annaligbaker]

I would be taking him for a lameness work up.

Why? That's been done twice recently.
