Trying Horses in Holland

[@laurapotter1178]

That 6 year old chestnut mare is stunning! Reminds me of welbeck in the way she floats around

[@SeaShellCeline]

The second mare stood out the most. The way you two clicked and jumped beautifully together. So effortsly❤👌 Best horse out of all the ones I've seen so far.

[@emilycapon]

First mare had a huge scope and a fire for jumping but that second mare stole my heart. she seems like a reliable partner who is willing to listen and wait for you. loved how even when you lost your reins she just kept straight and carried on as if you did have them, even after the jump (shows that she's been trained well but also the mare herself is brilliant), i would put a lot of faith in that horse.

[@melaniehochuli4728]

The second mare is stunning! So effortless and such a nice and calm canter even after the jumps!

[@parkerfarago1280]

Ikr she’s so pretty😍🐴

[@ritarainmore1416]

Second horse looks like charmer :) She seems strong, concentrated and calm.

[@Su-qj3ft]

Helo sso citizen

[@vanessaskyrider2571]

Rita Rainmore hi sso people

[@Su-qj3ft]

Hi 😂

[@ellitranstrom5375]

The first horse looks like a future star !

[@kathrynschaller8875]

I see what everyone means about how the second mare seems nice and fluid, but she's so long-backed. I really liked seeing you on the chestnut mare. As someone else said, she reminds me a bit of Welbeck and even a little bit of Boo when you first got her and she had a tendency to rush fences; she locks onto those jumps and seems to really enjoy it. I would love to see what you could do with that mare. She also covers so much ground with her canter. Happy horse hunting, and whomever you choose is one lucky animal!

[@1Fresh_Water]

That last mare looked amazing, so light on her feet

[@QhJumper12]

That 8 year old dark bay is my favorite so far. Stunning!

[@emmaxx8850]

These horses are so talented! Love these videos, hope you find the perfect horse soon! Xox

[@jamiejackson101]

Oh boy. That chestnut is so extremely green. Not sure why the owners are pushing such a height when the horse obviously needs ton of work on the flat first. He cross cantered a ton and looked nervous over fences.

[@marlousvandesande3444]

nice to see, the third horse you've tried stands at my old stable! it's a verry talented horse!

[@kiarapaiva641]

loved the first mare! gorgeous🙌🏼

[@myhorseandme]

1. Bags of scope! 2. Very ‘plain’ and economical over the fences 3. Looks like a little devil! 4. Probs the greenest, but scopey and reminds me of River with the way she moves Will be interesting to see which one you decided to vet :)

[@xdieromantic7x]

The second mare is SUPER cute! Liked her. The Chestnut was a cute jumper!

[@lucasa1849]

the second mare looked like she really wanted to do a good job. And it was sweet to see how her ears flicked back and fourth between you and the jump.

[@ajgensel9359]

The first bay seemed so heavy on the ground I didn't expect such lightness and snap over fences, second had the better ground work and was a smooth, flowing jumper. Personally liked the last two though, the chestnut has the stride and snap that says a big fence is going to be easy for her but seemed green in her changes. The last bay showed a lot of intelligence, her changes were automatic based on where she was and were either done over the fence or just before to set herself up at the proper spot and I'm a sucker for a horse that gets high in the front end jumping, wish she had a little more snap behind to match. Some really nice choices for you to make.

[@annilionz]

Really like the chestnut !! 👍🏼 look forward to your announcement 👍🏼

[@millybell8181]

Loved the first mare, you seemed to really click xx

[@royalisabella8099]

But I’m afraid she has some headshaking issues

[@millybell8181]

Royal Isabella I Would just say her flatwork isn’t quite established so she can’t hold a consistent contact and struggles approaching the jumps, just green but has a lot of potential and creates a beautiful bascule over the jump

[@BalooBear-ee]

Beautiful horses! I love the spunk in the third horse - looks like he really enjoys the sport of jumping and gives a lot of effort. After a bit, it looked like you were able to connect with her more. I especially loved how quick she was to respond to your aids, at least that's what it looked like on the video haha. The fourth mare was real nice, but the first mare was the one I thought worked really well with you. She looks so willing! Good luck with your search ;) Love your videos.

[@chelseabartlett5520]

The second mare would make a lovely hunter or eq horse, shes a classy lady. Love the third chestnut mare though, she pings.

[@SeaShellCeline]

My favourites overall is definitely still the second mare in this video and the grey from the last Holland video. I hope one of them is the one that you are vetting Lauren :)

[@HannaBostic]

That last little bay mare was class omg

[@jette9674]

The second mare is gorgeous!! From all the horses you showed in those videos I liked her the most.

[@Marianne_L]

The chestnut mare has a nice spark in her. Really like the second mare, she's so calm coming into a fence and definitely seems like she has a sensible head on her.

[@Aussieash1]

I love the third horse (6yr old), she had some attitude and seemed keen to go forward, however some pulling! All the best on your search, can't wait to see which horse you come home with x x x x

[@xanne1767]

I LOOOOOOOOOVED the first one 😍 you seemed to really click with her and you seemed confident riding her

[@miezepluis]

How fun! That last place looks very familiar and that's my trainer there too. ;) Good luck on your search!

[@shellykennedy5427]

The brown mare, second horse in this video, with star and near hind sock moved beautifully and also has a nice personality (from what I can see here), as well as good hind engagement. Hope all goes well with the vetting. 👍🏻

[@nolaleenen2383]

I agree. Second mare stood oit the most seemed like the most calm ons too. Would love to hear your opinion about all the horses you tried soon!

[@Sterreloveshorses]

I love your big smile on that first mare! I am from the Netherlands, so I am trying to understand what they are saying :')

[@lyshb6654]

Bloody love the first mare😍

[@samscorgie3484]

That first one and last one look like projects you clicked with really well!! The first one has SO much potential!! I thought the second looked the most hunter ish, and the third was VERY hot and eager to jump!! Not sure if thats the type of horse you prefer but she would be a firecracker! Excited to hear which one you eventually go with! :)

[@Lottepopstar]

Lowkey Living for the first mare we see😍

[@User-ri6qe]

wow love all of these horses I love the 1st 3rd and 4th horses

[@whitneymassengale6321]

I LOVE the first two! Especially the second!!

[@anaistraining3086]

The second horse was my favourite, rode her lovely and you two looked like you got on well

[@JumpyHorse11]

the second and last ones were the nicest! the second one was definitely a better fit. you both work well together :)

[@ninitjuh94]

Love your videos! Fun to see that you came and tried out horses that are close to where I live and where I have my horse :) Hope you find the perfect horse for you!

[@janniekiepiekie3293]

The first horse jumped amazing! The second one had a very strong and calm canter. En the third one looked like a very good Jumping horse but i didn't see a klick between you 2. The last horse was very stunning but i also didn't see a amazing klick between you 2 and i think that the fourth horse still needed to learn a lot in the basics. But i loved to see the match between you and the first 2 horses! Goodluck with finding your new Jumping buddy😊

[@xxfrancesnthomasxx]

I'm sooo in love with the firey chestnut

[@MissDestinyxx]

That third mare is my favourite out of those four 😍😍

[@thelunicornandme]

My bet is on the seccond horse! Great to see you ride a Zoeteliefs place. We go there often to train with our younsters ;)

[@sixxjenn1]

First one turns were wooooh! And stunning but I think they all looked great but you should keep looking

[@camillacalbesi5499]

Why in northern countries are males ridden only?

[@issywilkinson7164]

i loved the first and second mares xx goodluck with your search

[@clarabouvet2722]

Wow the 1st one😍

[@FancySassy80]

so many nice horses.. i don't know how your ever going to pick one unless its like an instant connection.. horse shopping is so hard

[@brandihart7995]

Second one had to be my favorite you guys seemed to really get along

[@BONBONBEAUTY]

Wow, i really liked the first one! A shame the neck wasn't a bit naturally higher

[@anacsmari]

3 years later and I’m still digging the first mare

[@keltigs]

The second mare was nice and you have a good connection but I think the first mare you had more fun on and with the bond you build with your horses I think would try above and beyond for you.

[@marissanieves4157]

I liked the 2nd and 1st one. Second one you two jumped beautifully

[@bays4days222]

I really Liked the chestnut mare.

[@LE123LE123]

They are all so lovely!!! Good luck with your vetting and I can't wait to see the other videos and find out who you chose! :D

[@justice4144]

Omg the 8yo mare is from a stable I live 10 minutes away from and where I ride often myself 😂 So weird that you were that close by haha, hope you'll find the one!

[@kayoverthink9701]

the first horse is really really nice shes little and she has a very very nice tail... and i like the way she jumps

[@yoshmosh85]

I thought the chestnut was the star of these 4, had a lot of spunk which is important in a showjumper. I thought the last bay was also fantastic, both looked like serious potential jumpers.

[@millimcclure.equestrian5697]

Absolutely love the first mare 😻😻😻

[@macey2001]

All these horses where amazing! I’m currently looking for my next horse and I’m looking for a jumper but the problem I’m having is I don’t have a huge budget :/

[@ellaw7384]

Ahhhhh I LOVED the first one!

[@piertx]

Didn't know you came to my country, well hope you liked it in The Netherlands!

[@Horsepassion4life]

Really like the 1st one! Looks like a good match :D

[@xxfrancesnthomasxx]

I'm soooo in love with the feiry chestnut

[@katherinemcleod4535]

the second mare stood out the most, it seemed you really clicked with her😍😍

[@ahkrkaoen3722]

Trying different types of horse's is a good thing👏😍

[@aneacaric4171]

Beautiful horses😍 I hope you found your perfect horse😇

[@lindseymckinney6047]

Could you do a voice over video of all your favorite horses that you’ve tried?

[@fabuloustessa8854]

I live in holland! I hope you liked the Horses and the weather in Holland lol

[@s-9889]

1 & 3 are my faves

[@madshaines1223]

I loved the first one

[@martinb8285]

You've tried some really talented horses! I hope there will be one to your liking because you've travelled all this way :) I think I personally liked the dark bay mare the most because she was so easy going. Ps: quite a lot of dutch people find it a bit offensive that you call their (my) entire country Holland instead of the Netherlands, because north and south Holland are only two out of 12 provinces who are called that, basically ignoring the rest if you say Holland (same if you say California to the whole of USA haha). Not that it really matters that much, it's just a nitpick hehe. Goodluck with your search, your riding is something to look up to :D

[@EddiesGun91]

Martin B sorry I didn't know haha

[@junior621994]

Well no one asked me but the third one would be my pick ^^ There’s a lot of flatwork work to do but she seems to be the most self-willed and when she settles at the end she jumps amazing ;)) First one has a nice jump but seems to pull down with her head and is not really my type. Second one is beautiful and has a very sweet canter but doesn’t seem have the same quality of jump and third one is sooooo bouncy when cantering I would be exhausted riding her 😅

[@xanne1767]

Nabab de reve is such a lovely stallion!

[@2bzyblack]

The chestnut mare chin chin, hates the left lead, looks like she’ll be a lot of fun, bit of a fight in her.

[@kyokomura]

could you explain in a video how you search for good horses and what about the formation is important ecc? I will have to beginn my search in 10 months and I am not too sure where to start (I will be searching in Germany/Holland)

[@miazielinski2215]

Wich breed where All the horses shown in the video?

[@carlee4302]

I think you looked the best with the second, and fourth horses from Holland, out of all the horses from Germany in your last video, and the other two horses in this video. Thank just my thoughts/opinion though 😌👍🏻

[@livandlady9537]

PLEASE start ‘voicing over’ these? Hope you find the right horse soon xx

[@danielle4201]

Liv And Lady Shes traveling and has no time to do a voiceover. However she said she is going to make a vlog about this whole thing

[@MJEquestrian1]

If the first mare is so inconsistent in the bridle, why have her in a gag which raises the head?

[@rika1000thorns]

i hope you find the perfect jumping partner... even though i kinda like seeing you ride many different horses :) i don't know what it is but you look great and ride great on any horse

[@tatef3919]

I think you went for the 1st,you seemed to really click with her and she has a very river-ish size and jump about her!

[@heidilash9487]

The ride on the second mare seemed super seamless, but that first mare looks like a competitor. And after Booth and Urano...does anyone else think a really chill horse looks odd under Laura? I've always been after sassy horses :)

[@KC-cr2xw]

The second horse was the one you seemed the most comfortable with. I think she’d be a good option for you

[@ashleymarjoram2907]

Loving these videos!! Did you find that the first mare was having trouble with accepting the contact?

[@flocodegelo1081]

i am looking for a good stable near amsterdam where i can board my horse can somebody help me please

[@brittos7985]

Where do you finds these horses? As in sites where you look up horses

[@kazsoup2]

It looked like you and second mare really connected

[@Su-qj3ft]

Hello sso citizen

[@vanessaskyrider2571]

April Rainfire hey sso people

[@kazsoup2]

Lol true

[@lianwilson8817]

the 6yo chestnut is lush!

[@eviebaileys5041]

2nd horse looked like a dream to ride😍

[@klad95]

The chestnut mare really reminds me of my horse! I have a question for you: when people I know go to other stables looking for a horse, they use to try every horse both in the inside arena and in the outside one (weather permitting), at least for one course in both of them. I noticed you didn't: you think it isn't helpful? I thought it was a usual procedure

[@EddiesGun91]

klad95 the mare I'm vetting I rode outside and inside 😁

[@carlysiler4312]

The second one seems "easy" and I think you have a ton of potential with the 3rd spicy one

[@laurendixon7073]

Love the last one!

[@gokceeken511]

Is River good?

[@EddiesGun91]

Gökçe Eken yes she is in foal 😍

[@gokceeken511]

EddiesGun91 will you show her to us? We miss her.

[@EddiesGun91]

Gökçe Eken yes I will 😍

[@gokceeken511]

EddiesGun91 Yeeey 😄

[@kirstykasper3304]

Oooh good luck!

[@Montanaoequestrian]

The fact that I don't know which one you're vetting is driving me cray. Like based on the videos I would have tried to buy 80% of these horses... haha

[@EddiesGun91]

Montana O. Mwhahahaha the suspense 😂😂😂

[@Montanaoequestrian]

Out of the horses in this particular video, i'm going to have to throw out a guess of the 8 y/o Nabab de Reve ;) Now I wait lol

[@anacsmari]

which one was your favorite Lauren?

[@Su-qj3ft]

Hello sso citizen

[@vanessaskyrider2571]

Ana Longrider so many sso people

[@Su-qj3ft]

Yup

[@anacsmari]

Sandy Bluetuin haha hey!!

[@IvyMPDressage]

I like the second.

[@MyWayofEverything]

First horse is so nice... really reaching for bit contact... bit more flatwork to correct her dropped shoulders and she will be so nice for someone. The second is exactly the kind of horse I'd want... seems so calm and intelligent. The third seems like a nightmare to show... even if you get her working nicely at home, I feel like she would revert right back to that bundle of nerves every show

[@aremedyproject9569]

Ow ow ow lol. When a horse cross canters. My back hurt to watch. 7:21 and 7:34 for example. Don’t know how it feels to you tho. Love the horse at 3:00. ✌️😊
