I think it’s amazing that she encourages her horse to focus and tells him well done when he does it well and says it’s okay when he makes mistakes. Best display of horsemanship.

[@user-zy8bm6pv8c]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@HorseHyper1000]

I think all rider should talk to there horses like this❤️ That was such good communication and so sweet! Good job you two!

[@horserelaxation4513]

I do that and I agree

[@peachysecreteventing7904]

Yes I do it and I totally 💯 agreee

[@chloescott-horner1739]

i saw the crab jump on facebook and couldn't help but laugh XD

[@KLT-id9nm]

It looks really cute.

[@m.l.b.2908]

Same! I honestly thought it just looked like a crab because I was sick and overly tired. Then I realised, "No, that actually is a crab", lol.

[@starloire]

its scarily funny

[@redfailhawk]

Welcome to Maryland, where Lacrosse is the unofficial state sport, you can buy ANYTHING with a crab on it, and Jousting rules are taught in schools.

[@Zapporah85]

I saw it on #shiteventersunite 😬

[@justjaguar2314]

Holy cow! Boy's FAST! Damn, he really stepped up to this, incredible job!

Święta krowa ?

[@llori-anne]

@@jessicapielech4901 it’s just a saying, basically meaning ‘wow’, or ‘that’s impressive’

So honest. That horse has enjoyed every minute. How dare anyone call this cruel.

I love that he flicks an ear back after every effort to see how he did :) wicked run, great job to you both!

[@fleetskipper1810]

Watching this, I’m totally blown away by Munson’s speed and endurance. Show jumping may not have been his favorite, but boy, he was bred and born for cross-country. What a dude as you said!

[@cherylcampbell7495]

Love this horse. Your horses have gotten so focused and strong. This was a scary run to me but you slayed it.👍🙏

[@chloeiacovou907]

This course looks incredibly draining and difficult. Well done!!

[@natashakate5687]

Might not have been the cleanest but man, it was beautiful how much he was having fun and just taking on the challenges! 🥰😍

[@karenbrown614]

Nice to have this perspective after watching you go on the live broadcast. What absolute bravery and talent - Incredible round! Congratulations!!

[@linnifer6516]

can I stream the live broadcast somewhere now? :D

[@fleetskipper1810]

USEF should have a recording of it still posted on its website.

[@SL33PYLUNA]

The rider and the horse remind me so much of Toothless and Hiccup specially with the "come on buddy!!"

[@jallz5533]

Ears foward the whole time, You encourage him so much! Can tell your a proud rider and love him. Loved watching this

[@betsysmall3576]

Loved the way his ears constantly swiveled back to get confirmation from her??

[@terriholliday8038]

Munson is going faster and faster since he first started! So cool to watch his growth. He is determined.

[@itsalyssa8136]

You can realy tell they both love what they do, and props to the amazing rider who care’s amazingly for there horse ❤❤❤

[@niabiilo]

The grandson of Seattle Slew ran a great round yet again! He is amazing!

[@cissy3994]

Is he the grandson of Seattle Slew 😳 That explains

[@quinoasalads]

I loved at the beginning how you said « it’s alright, my fault » because some people just don’t talk to their ponies

[@jdmagpie]

What an intense course; some of those combos came up fast and furious. Great job and well done.

[@dirtyjeepgirl3774]

Always makes my heart happy to see Munson eat the land up and enjoy it like the Slew he is 💜 he clearly loves being part of a team with you, which speaks volumes

[@daramcgrath4423]

Awesome round. Munson was a super star for you today, especially over that crab at the water. He’s come a long way in his confidence there! Great looking jump, one of my favorites. Thank you for sharing your horses with all of us.

[@pennywebb867]

My goodness, he's a machine! What a gorgeous boy. So cool to see the course from your perspective; I'm watching the 5* right now. I live in Baltimore so you are in my neck of the woods. Welcome!

[@horserelaxation4513]

Welcome

[@hrdrockfarm8948]

I used to have an off the track thoroughbred and she always ran mad. That's the only way I can explain it. Ears flat back like she was ready to kill. Amazing what you can do with them. Good job.

[@BadHairdayKimmie]

Good boy, Munson! He was so brave. He dove over that giant defensive crab and into the water like he does it every day before breakfast. Well done. Great ride!!!

[@TheEpicWobbleEditzz]

I love how confident you and your horse are! A good definition of horsemanship.

[@magicmoles]

i absolutely love how she respects her horse and shows nothing but love and praise💕💕💕

[@bethanyjennings6365]

When you see the crab jump is when you KNOW you’re in Maryland 🤣

[@kimtaehyung7739]

I love how she takes the blame for mistakes she does and doesn’t just say it’s the horses fault

[@taylor_eqq]

The endurance on this horse is CRAZY!

[@Paige0557]

I am so impressed with you both, I saw this course on the cross country app with course designer Ian Stark and those jumps are massive as is the drop off. I was worried for Munson and his stamina (never should have been) when you were still on the down hill. How big is he? from my laptop I guessed around 16hh but after seeing him on this course he’s gotta be taller. Ps: My bad, just went back and watched his run again 16hh exactly.

[@kari8187]

He sounds like a freight train! And the crab! He soared over the crab even with the water on the other side!! Good job Munson !

[@shadrackzulu6138]

It looks like Munson and Sharpie both enjoyed their tour of the new Fair Hill XC! Great job. Go get'um tomorrow!

[@badlander2000]

I love watching his happy ears and how one flicks back when. You say "good boy".

[@katiemcintrye3579]

Elisa: Focus Munson: Speeeeed

[@jenotteni7889]

What a handsome fast boy he is that must take a lot of endurance in both of y'all to do those

[@sallymowbray297]

He really stepped up to the plate there... lovely to watch, especially the crab water complex - very testing. Well done, great teamwork!

[@KarriePorterBond]

And here's me having heart failure at nearly every humungous jump, while I'm sitting comfortably on my bed with my laptop in front of me. You had to actually live it and ride it. INCREDIBLE!

[@free.spirit.studios]

I love how his ears are always up. He’s so focused and alert to everything. ❤️ You also take credit for everything you do, mistakes and all. I love that. Keep doing you! ❤️

[@BlueEyes-0222]

No hesitation into the scary Crab water! Really good job...

[@3Sanibel33]

That was a freaking amazing ride. That horse just eats up the ground, so fast. Tuff course, Amazing job, both! Triple Cheers! ❣️🍀

[@caseyd36584]

He is really fast!!! Wow!! It takes a really good rider with good control over their horse to do something like this, good job!!

[@shelleycooper4890]

Wow Munson has come so far, I think this was the course he spooked and nearly impaled himself on the rope pole last time?, he had wings this time!.Water, people, dog barking didn't miss a beat. Amazing work.

[@fleetskipper1810]

Different course. Don’t remember which one, but this was the first time this course has ever been used, so it wasn’t the same one.

[@phoebewilkinson7009]

AMAZING MUNSON IS A XC MACHINE 🤩

[@imdrunkmk427]

the fear you always get before a contest, I felt that during training. I wish I still rode.

[@cornerofthebarn4706]

what a great rider! she didn't blame him once!

[@leonslionessnz6948]

Wow munson really flew around that course! I remember when he used to stop at the water, he has so much confidence now.

[@annaabney1420]

Holy CRAP he can fly! He has come so far!

[@msloloproduction_s]

Wow! Your boy has got the zoomies! I would love to try eventing one day! You did an amazing job!!😄🥰

Amazing Job!! 12th Place??? That Might Seem Bad, But Thats Incredible!! Amazing JOB!! That Horse, Your Lucky To Have That Lil Man!!

[@AP-yt]

I love these! It might seem weird but when I’m watching these I pretend I’m in the saddle, no kidding 😭 I do the jumping position, lean back on the canter, even the heels down 💀 save me please I’m going mad

[@user-jl9nr3rn1d]

You are…

[@TyLeeslilsis]

Ah! Coming across your video is so neat!! I'd never seen a 5* except on tv lol, but I got to attend this. Watching you and every rider there knock it out with their absolute best was the coolest thing to have witnessed. I remember seeing Munson. What a gorgeous powerful boy he is!

[@Cicis_channel]

I love how he had his ears forward the entire time

[@gracefarrall9148]

It was so fun to actually be able to watch you today! Good luck in SJ tomorrow!

O MY WORD that is a talented horse you have there he was do fast!!

[@Shutterbugin]

Well done! Made me think of and miss Johnny and his locomotive breathing💜 Good luck tomorrow!

[@eq.juliaa]

Every rider needs to speak to their horse like this. Absolutely amazing. You can tell he loves his job, him galloping and going overall fast even when she’s not asking him to. He’s a beauty. Truly special. ❤

[@JM.H285]

Your right but just saying she probably was asking him to go fast using seat.,her whip or her legs

[@JM.H285]

And u can also tell that she's in jockey position if u look at her shadow. It gives them the signal to go faster. And if u listen carefully u can hear her whip once or twice

[@eq.juliaa]

@@JM.H285 Ahh yes that is completely true but most riders just naturally do jockey/half seat so they are lighter on the horses back. I think that she only whips him once or twice to get the right spots on the jumps, plus I’m pretty sure that she just lets him gallop with her reins slightly loose for the grassy parts. You’re completely correct though, she probably does kick/crop the horse a couple times.

[@laurablauch5954]

I love watching him run! Awesome job, both of you! 🙌🏻

[@starvalley2957]

i absolutely loved how most people cheered as you two went past, it was good encouragement from them :) beautiful job from both of you, amazing run

[@FancySassy80]

wooo he was flying, love watching these in VR.. LOL its like i'm riding right with you..

[@khtmagdus]

this is amazing when i watch these but other people they talk to the horse but not that gently etc your hose did a grat job and i love the way you calm him when he does a mistake its so sweet

[@aleash3907]

What a phenomenal team! Loved how you praised him all the way!

[@coreywest1183]

Such a brave boy! You must be very proud of him.

[@elenapost8628]

I love how this horse is always asking if he is right with his ears. Such a nice horse!

[@sabinepaustian1450]

What a good horse, jumping over it quickly and all over the place, I held my breath and prayed so many times. Well done

[@strawberrykiwi876]

You and Munson slew are so talented

[@debftlee9990]

Tks for the ride! Go Munson!

[@stevenobrien6527]

Nice job Munson Slew - what great athletes - horse and rider. The 12th place may not sound like much, but believe me, it's a miracle to even complete this course. I attended the Saturday Cross Country event - wow, what a beautiful facility and course. Kudos to Fair Hill, the course designers, all the staff, and traffic direction by State and Local Police Officers. The event was well organized and a pleasure to watch. Where can we find more videos of the other events?

[@alisongraham3798]

Flicking the ears back? AMAZING HORSE! Listening to everything u tell him!

[@c_and_l]

I love Munson's little ears. Best of luck to you, Muns, and Sharpie tomorrow in the show jump!
