That fall was so smooth and well landed on your side! I wouldn't be embarrassed one bit, Holly! Basically impossible to sit through that unexpected spook..

[@TKDDLJ09]

My horse does these spooks like this every single day at least once. 😐 let md tell you it never gets easier to sit through. Because you become so shocked every time they spook like this, thinking something is coming at you, when in reality its just that there are lines in the arena or something. 🤣🤣🤣

I just want to say Holly that I could not find your videos more fun, inspiring, honest, and sometimes comforting! Thank you for sharing your life with us, and your ponies! I admire how quiet but guiding you are with your horses, your humble nature, and your sense of humor about this crazy sport we love! You are an amazing rider and horsewoman, it's so fun to watch you! My mare take off with me today because she kicked a rock against something in the arena - they truly just must concoct scary stories in their head sometimes! Gonna go binge watch some more of your videos. 🤣

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Awh thank you so much!! ❤️

[@lizedwards645]

I love watching you ride. I learn so much even though I'm not anywhere near your level. I went for my very first show (an in-house at the stable where I take lessons) this past September. I'm 54 (still feels young to me) and had taken lessons as a teenager but never showed. Five minutes into the warm-up for hunter, my horse bucked me off. While I was standing there a few minutes later (my coach had taken the horse to settle him), I got very bad muscles spasms under my ribs so that the was the end of my first show. My second show in October was way better. Two red ribbons in a couple minor categories. One of the young girls at the barn told me that she was bucked off, head first into a flower planter on her first show. Endlessly entertaining these horses!!

[@hallyandhidalgo]

Beautiful helping Khal come back so confidently. And you + Welbeck were flying. 💪 Hooray for Dad too.

[@BalooBear-ee]

You really have the most amazing personality and mindset. When I fall off I usually get quite embarrassed where I don't want anyone talking to me afterwards because I feel like everyone is judging or laughing at me. You, on the other hand, literally just laugh it off and go on to ride two super rounds afterwards. That is so awesome. I love learning from you, not only when it comes to horses, but also about how you handle any situation. You have such a positive outlook on things, never letting small things like falling off get under your skin. Thanks Holly, for being you :)

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Haha thank you! It really wasn’t anyone’s fault so there was nothing to be embarrassed about ☺️ ❤️❤️

Well done Holly!! I've been there---I fell when the medics at an event waved good morning from the open window of the ambulance, and my spooky mare just did not think that was fun. They are funny critters for sure. Wellbeck reminds me of a client's horse I rode and showed! I've not really seen her videos and her face just looked so familiar. :) Love those chestnut mares.

Wow! Well done on Khal! Really brave of you and just trying to focus and get the experience. But I have to say when you jumped with Welbeck, tears just fill my eyes. What a beatiful mare she is. So stunning and so fast. She is just made for jumping hahaha!

[@horseshine6137]

Brilliant round(s)! Just thought I'd share, my horse heard your horse whinny on the video and is now hollering too! I thought it was a one off so I rewound and played it again and they're all now whinnying! I wonder what he said!?!

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thank you so much!

[@MicaelaGutierrez2004]

Been there. My new horse (the grey mare that is bomb proof to everything else except crowds and roans and horses loping behind her) dumped me real good in a warm up arena that was packed from use and basically a rock pit. Lovely feeling. She’s not a real fan of crowds. Then the next day, a roan loped way to the side of her and she noped the heck away and I got a rope burn. But now I can finally focus on her and her training.

[@RedSteady09]

Those rounds were fab!! I miss riding my retired horse and that amazing feeling when you have a wonderful round. You just feel so proud. I love how supportive your dad is too. Lovely to see.

Glad you and Khal are okay. 🤣 We've all been there. He's just young. You're doing a great job giving him the experience he needs to not do silly things like that! 👍🏽 And he did a phenomenal job with the 1.10! He respected this fences more.

I also love that you ran the fall twice, cuz I was just going to scroll back to watch it again. You are such a good sport and an excellent rider too. Anyway, very fun to see you "bacK" with your horses, Holly -- tho' you are still in Australia for another month or so. Soon we'll get new videos of pregnant Wellbeck and Fiona -- I'm very excited to see those when you get to them :)

Looks like your horse has a new friend!! Haha khal is just such a handsome boy and he seems like he has a wonderful temperament all of your horses actually I love your channel my show jumper recently passed away so I miss riding so much it’s hard to find a horse for me maybe because I just had such a special bond and he was such a confident horse I trusted him with my life it’s very rare to find that in a horse. Your dad is hilarious and you took that fall like a champ and got right back on just as you should!

[@nicoleequestrian6969]

Khal was so spooky in the 1m, it was one of the few times id say in my opinion it wasn't rider error(when you fell off) even though im no expert, haha! It seemed like he was just getting back into the rhythm of things though. The actual round, despite the poles down, looked like it was in a solid rhythm tough which was really nice. The second round with him, the 1.10m looked amazing! You guys seemed as if you were riding as one and it was awesome, one of those rides where it looks like the rider is doing nothing because they are doing a lot right, making it seem so effortless. That one fence, think it might've been fence 12 where you pushed him to it looked so beautiful "seeing stride" wise. (BTW I know I am no expert, I jump like 70cm but I felt like commenting what I saw lol) You and Welbeck together looked so classic and just right and I loved watching you two back in the swing of things! The progress you've made with Khal is so pleasing to watch and your videos really do help me so much with my personal riding so thank you and good job!

[@HollyLenahanSJ]

Thank you!! I probably should’ve sat up and waited instead of pushing him for the long stride, but I got away with it luckily! ❤️

That commentator talking through your round drove me insane, so rude. I'm sure someone can live without their keys for 30 seconds, let the pair finish the course 🙄

[@lifeingrey8126]

It annoyed me too. Let them pay attention to their ride instead interrupting their focus and possibly giving the rider a jump scare.

[@marteencowan4037]

So annoying!! I think it put Khal off and that's why he knocked a pole. I bet it was because Holly was eliminated, so they didn't care.

Ya but does it matter tho😑😑😑 No offence tho but rlly

[@jasminemurfin538]

@@horseriderpassion4582... Well yeah, it throws both of them, they lose their focus and are more likely to miss a stride or knock a pole. Go watch the video, you can see khal react to it. As a previous comment or pointed out, she was eliminated so they likely didn't care. I would be super pissed if something as distracting as that went on during my round, people should be more respectful.

[@april5666]

What a great video of a great day, Holly. Thank you for sharing. I agree with someone else on here that its nice to see your dad out and about with you too and it would be nice to see more of him when appropriate. I love how kooky all your animals are -- those chickens are crazy. And Wellbeck's head show at the end was priceless. I love seeing Khal. When you put his feed in the trough, he was pawing, like he was trying to knock it over, just as you said he would. What a character. And he is a beautiful horse, and obviously so sweet too. I had one weird question. What's with that "Trojan" horse thingy up on the hill at the show. I guess its a sculpture of a horse, but it looks like it isn't finished, like it's a frame for a topiary or something. Does anyone have any further information about it?
