Friesian Horse races Arabian horse

[@annehamilton8977]

That was lovely footage of Apollo galloping. The rider reminded me of a jockey, the way he sat high in the saddle.

[@mkmclachlan6349]

That gorgeous high-stepping gait on Apollo and all that strength... and then the fleet-footed speed demon that is Farouk! Two such different horses but each with their own beauties!

[@fanipaleka9761]

The most beautiful recording so far! I think that here it is not important at all who is faster (which is quite clear to anyone who knows anything about horses) but in the beauty of movement (poetry in motion) and power of these majestic animals. ❤❤❤❤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@zippymax1]

Farouk may be faster, but imagine Apollo charging you on the battlefield. Instant terror: the Angel of Death approaching at full gallop!

[@carrieh9956]

I was just thinking about the terrifying sight of an entire army mounted on Friesans!! I can't even imagine the beauty and terror.....

[@rdhawke]

The Bedouin Arab warriors rode rode their "Daughters of the Wind" into battle (Arabian horses may seem too easily spooked, though they can be very brave)...but Apollo is magnificently intimidating to be sure, I do love Friesians, also.

[@susanhoffman3686]

What a great ride for the four of you! Apollo is stunning to watch! He has it all!! Not that Farouk doesn’t , I just haven’t seen him run or go through the different trots you have him do. Because you have the camera on you. All three of them are so beautiful and handsome to me! God has blessed you with these three stunning horses! I do have a question, is Apollo spending so much time with Bella do to he head of them or does he have a crush on her? Why doesn’t Farouk pay more attention to her? I love the way she try’s to get there attention! You’re so lucky to have them right with the two of you!! Thank you again letting us be apart of your family!!

But Steve did an awesome job getting back on, Apollo is a big horse

[@larinvermont3271]

@@karenlugg1386 I wholeheartedly agree! I rode using both Westeen and English tack fit-outs on a 16H Western and 17.1H hunter, and at 6'03" and in my teens and 20s it would have been a significant exercise to do an unassisted field remount. I don't know how tall Steve is, but I can guess his age range, and he's in superb condition to jump on and off a horse Apollo's size [which, if I remember, is over 16H]. I'm significantly older than Steve, and would give anything to be jn half of his condition! And extra points if he was actively holding Apollo back between Tara and the firecracker she rides, Farouk, and the parade of beef cattle that were parading along behind them!

Really amazing, the action when he gallops, Apollo's got his blood up, he's galloping into battle as the war horse they were... Farouk is upset as you hold him back Tara, look at his backfacing ears :) I know Steve is a speed demon (from that one video of him in his car so funny) and now I can see his DELIGHT as Apollo takes off, zoom zoom! Better than any car engine beneath him I bet :) I began this video with you Tara deciding to go mountain climbing with the horses... You are loving the danger! Let's just say I have noted that you do NOT notice dangerous maneuvers on horseback, your confidence and chutzpah is amazing and wonderfully refreshing, it certainly gives the horses confidence training. But Steve, when Apollo came through that gate and Steve walked up behind holding the reins, I could barely hold myself together. My twin and I would only follow our elder teacher in his escapades because we trusted him to care more for the horses we rode than ourselves, we knew we'd be ok... This is in my top 3 of all your videos :) Wish you could hear my laughing, screaming, and silences through it. You are wise to know horses need adventures too, lest anyone forget, I have not :)

Farouk (being an Arab) not only has mindblowing endurance, but incredible speed unmatched by few breeds. The proof is in the pudding, if you can find videos where Tara lets Farouk out to run, you look at your screen and wonder at first, "did I up the speed of the video???" - then you laugh because you realize nope, that's them racing realtime on the video. They (Tara and Farouk) are really THAT fast... exhilarating!

[@outoftime7740]

Well Apollo wasn't going as fast as he could. I think Steve was holding him back and maybe Apollo realizes how fragile Steve is. Farouk is a pretty big Arab, who can run. Its hard to say. If it was a halfmile race, probably Farouk.
