Many, many congratulations Evie (& Donut)🎉🎉 You both showed tremendous grit & determination over a challenging course. Fabulous performance & well-deserved result. Donut displays such trust in you & an immense desire to please. What a transformation you have brought about in him. I just love watching your vlogs & how your horses progress. A shout out also to your fantastic Mum🎉. Finally, I can only repeat what you said "WooHoo... good boy" Donut🤗

That was an amazing cross county course - Donut was fantastic!! he was flying but so rideable - he looked like a pro and you both looked like you were having so much fun!! He was incredible - haven't seen him in a while and so improved - you are doing an incredible job w/him - so happy to see a thoroughbred show his stuff in such a beautiful manner - he has such a good mind and so athletic - great job both of you!!!

[@ELSEventing]

He has an incredible temperament. I am amazed at how far we've come in a year! x

[@hannesofie6071]

Doughnut has become one of the coolest eventers I'v seen!!! Yo'v done a fantasic job with him!!! ❤❤ Don't blame you for having big plans!!!

[@ELSEventing]

Thank you, he’s such a legend

[@jeniferrinehart1107]

What a brave lad!! I loved your “woohoo”’s to him after a particularly tough fence. Well done you two! ❤️🎉❤🎉

[@luciebushell3319]

INCREDIBLE ride from you out on xc, i mean donut was fantastic but you really gave him that confidence!! congrats on a great day!!

[@ShaneGilbert-cx4th]

Well bone both that was brilliant, AND was ridding all the way with YOU. He's just amazing and YOU are just amazing.

[@ELSEventing]

You’re so kind x

[@shannonmcn8299]

You both made that xc look so easy when it absolutely wasn't! Lovely to watch ❤ Bless the little man for the whoops in the dressage, he recovered so well for the centre line and who amongst us isn't wary of a porta potty 😂

[@marionwigzell7334]

Bless Donut, he gives his heart. Love him (-: Marion 🎉🎉🎉

[@malloryh8634]

Amazing job Evie and Donuty!! That was one competitive division and you guys certainly held your own!! He has come SO FAR and that is a huge testament to you and your training. I love your vlogs, thank you for bringing us along for the ride :)

[@julen2380]

You two are incredible together. Donut still seems to find this level fairly easy, still needs some experience but wow! So excited to see where your journey takes you!

[@ELSEventing]

He makes the fences feel v small and is really getting to grips with the technical stuff now! X

[@bethany6148]

Aw I loved the way you were cheering him on and telling him how good he was! He's a star, he tries so hard to get it right for you, what a fantastic horse he's turning into, well done you! Xx

[@ELSEventing]

Thank you! I always set out planning on being quiet and professional then end up cheering him on anyway 😅 so proud of him💙

[@candidapratt3675]

WELL DONE YOU FABULAS.AND WOW. what an AMAZING horse. he is ,

[@ELSEventing]

He really is! ❤

[@adrianscott6327]

Wow well done Donut and poundstretcher you just point him and go, he is such a superstar, can’t wait to see where you take him once he builds up those dressage muscles xxx

[@AdventuresofMegatron]

To say you both looked insane round that xc course is an understatement! 👏🏻 Well done you awesome pair!

[@katherinestead708]

woohoo, way to go Donut!! Epic!

[@ashleighsavoury1204]

How amazing was he!! What amazing xc footage! Well done

[@ELSEventing]

He was fab wasn't he! 💛

[@SPD355]

It's so exciting seeing you both move up the levels. What a wonderful partnership you have together. When he's unsure you are there for him and he responds with 'okay let's do it!' I am nowhere near your level but did my first Intro test recently and I am sure that your positive mindset has rubbed off onto me somehow! Nerves were there but didn't stop me and my lovely riding school horse having fun and actually doing a fairly good job :D

[@ELSEventing]

That’s so wonderful to hear! ❤ We all get nerves, but learning to carry on anyway is a massive achievement 👏🏻

[@AimeeandApollo]

Love watching you both and how much progress Donut has made! Gives me hope for me n my TB! Xxx

[@ELSEventing]

I am excited about Donut's future.

[@ELSEventing]

Me too!

[@jentrezise6295]

WOW!! Big day of growth & learning 🥰🥰 You could see Nutty's brain pinging with all those questions at the start of the XC but he trusted you and kept going even when he wasn't sure. Then you could literally see his shift in mental approach with each fence after the trakhener and from after the drop he was like "yep, I've got this now Mum, just bring it" and churned through the rest like butter. What a cracker of a horse he is 🤩🤩 Well done to you both 😊

[@ELSEventing]

He really did grow in confidence the whole way. I’m so proud of him x

[@patriciaemms1902]

You must be absolutely chuffed with his cross country,so brave and attacking, well done 😊 was he a little stiff going up the ramp or was it his travel boots? 🎉 Xxxx

[@ELSEventing]

It’s his travel boots that make him walk funny! X

[@horsecare.skincare]

Amazing!!!!! Love watching the two of you. He has so much joy in his run and jump and so much potential brilliant job piloting him to this level!

[@ELSEventing]

Thank you! X
