STEPPING UP A LEVEL! | 4* HORSE VS FRIEND || VLOG 154

[@vintagelady1]

I think I saw what heaven will be like for Zeb one day---galloping through a field of white flowers, doing what he was born to do: soaring over jump after jump with his rider yelling WAAA-HOO!! (And probably telling the hoomans what to do!) Go Zeb & Mic, she's really upping her skills!!

[@margauxnodvin7478]

I love this comment. I think you’re right about Zeb’s Heaven! Although hope he stays happy and healthy for many more years ❤

[@annjohnson8437]

Youre so kind letting your friend ride Zeb whilst your pregnant , lovely to see him enjoying himself sooo much , he loves loves his job xxx

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

He does 👏😊

[@fleetskipper1810]

Really really enjoyed Zeb being the schoolmaster. That horses amazing. He knows his job and loves it. Michaela, you did fantastic job with him. He is something, isn’t he?

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👏👏😊

[@egeegee7146]

What a fabulous role for your senior member of the team. Keeps his mind active and doing what he loves. And he schools younger less experienced team members. He is such a star that horse. I love his effortless jump, he does what he has to but never over jumps or balloons. Dream ride.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@lisajames4150]

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Makes me so happy to see Zeb and Michaela having so much fun! Really great riding, brilliant last halt in the dressage! Thank you for the masterclass in quarter marks, yours always look amazing!

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Glad you enjoyed it 😊

[@annjohnson8437]

Zeb makes all the jumps look soooo easy! He is such a talented, handsome boy! My dream horse! ❤

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

🥰🥰

[@patbroekema6721]

It’s wonderful that you keep eventing Zeb at 21! He loves it so much and the lower jumps aren’t straining him. His ears were pricked the entire round. Micayla rode him so well 🐴😀

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

🥰🥰

[@kippen64]

What an awesome opportunity for Michaela 🎉. There aren't many schoolmasters of the calibre that Zeb is.

[@Jzy21]

Agree! He really is the ultimate school master now I would kill for the ride of him 🖤🖤

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

🥰🥰

[@Staffie-Lover_267]

Great job. And fun to see all 'Zeb's comments' again~! I always laugh out loud at what he 'says'/does.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Glad you enjoy it 😊

[@bettiehass4091]

Zeb looks fabulous! You keep him in such good shape and he still loves what he does.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

He does 👏👏😊

[@qvmarlins3506]

What an incredible privilege to ride a horse like Zeb! He certainly loves his cross country and takes care of his rider-as long as they allow him to gallop and jump😀

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👍👍😊

[@juliaforsyth8332]

He looks like he could do it standing on his head. Well done you two. Don't overdo it Ashley. Pregnancy is a hard job.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

It certainly is 😊😊

[@susanmathis7561]

A Super Zeb! He takes care of his Michaela! Ashley you should be Very Proud! Congratulations 💞

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👏👏😊

[@louisewood9253]

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👏👏😊

[@susanvuturo4361]

Congratulations Michaela and Zeb! Great job! I love watching Zeb jump. He is so classic and I cannot believe they don’t give him better dressage scores! I think he looks amazing in dressage! Great job all way round. Steve I hope your back feels better.😊❤❤🎉

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Thanks 🙏 😊

[@grahamedwards3064]

Wonderful Zeb XCT "Just steer so I know which one, I got the rest of it ty" and yeah control his roll because he can cover the ground.... Well Done and Zeb had a blast which is the most important! Oh and Ash you look lovely!

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Thanks 🙏 😊

[@emmahayward2341]

My friend and I both have OTTBs. Mine is a super compact 15.3, American import (landed in Ireland) sprinter. Hers is a massive long 17.2 who has run P2P. Whenever I sit on him - I’m just baffled with what to do with all the horse/neck in front of me (he’s long behind too but my little sprinter is a power house behind so that isn’t too bad 😂) but when I sit on him - his head is miles away! And at 5 foot I’m not sure he knows I’m there 😂 Zeb looks like he’s the same, LOOOONG - but like Henno, super lovely 😊 Michaela is doing fab on him 😊

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👏👏😊

[@susan_brehm_art]

Zeb and Michaela are such a good team!

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@marneymcgovern4285]

Zeb is epic! Wastes no extra energy and just jumps what he needs to! He is such a good boy! Nice job Michaela!!! I actually think the way he jumps saves his legs, he jumps so light on his feet! He truly is such an amazing boy❤️

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

He is 👏👏🥰

[@kellibrooks9032]

[@spanglelime]

Michaela is a natural KZbinr, she needs her own channel. This looked really fun! I love watching Zeb cross-country. It's the ears 😄

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@juliecarmody6773]

One happy Zeb & Mick a pleasure to watch , lovely round ❤

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

👏👏😊

[@margauxnodvin7478]

Wow, good job Micaela! Zeb is SUCH a legend, I’m so jealous you got to event him! Ashley I’ve been riding hunters and jumpers in the U.S. for 30+ years now, and the only cross country jumping I’ve done has been schooling at a couple places, including the cross country jumps I had built when I bought my farm (aka livery, training, and sales yard in U.K. speak). However, I stumbled on your channel about a year and a half ago and have become obsessed with eventing. Perhaps starting eventing at age 47 might be daft, but I want to give it a go anyway. Obviously I’d need a new horse (mine spooks when the grass changes color while hacking in the field 🙄). I’ve had a couple who would have been amazing at eventing; good dressage backgrounds, great show jumpers, bold enough to jump every cross country fence I did point them at. Alas, I was focused on show jumping and then competing in hunters. But I would pay a small fortune to lease such an eventing veteran as Zeb to learn on. That cross country round looked SO fun! I loved Micaela’s “woohoo”! 😂 I may have shouted that after a particularly good last fence in show jumping or a big solid fence in the field. Hoping to find a horse with a bit of Zeb’s talent and experience here in the U.S. I don’t need to go high; I think I’d max out at 100 cm. But wow Zeb still looks AMAZING and is clearly enjoying life, which is a testament to your good management. I’m sure Micaela is having an absolute blast. I can’t wait to see more. Love from the U.S. ❤

[@ceciliavondehn4402]

He flew over the jumps in the ring and xcountry so easily ! Congrats for 9th placing !

[@annejarvis7002]

Best wishes for your horse hunt & eventing future. Show jumping was my passion, but since becoming disabled (car accident) I have started watching event vloggers. Now I am hooked 😅. I absolutely love following various Eventers. Just go for it and enjoy your passion. Safe travels 🤗

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Good Luck with the search- there is nothing quite like completing a XC course 👏👏😊

[@kimberlylennon-freire2191]

He just absolutely loves his xc!!!! Good job all!

Great job! Zeb looked so happy! 😊

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@annejarvis7002]

Congratulations Michaela & Zeb. Zeb is a testament to your training Ashley👏👏 Michaela is such a fabulous rider, with soft hands. Zeb's trot and canter are glorious. His jump is so scopey - he clearly relishes the bigger and more challenging jumps. Safe travels to all. Looking forward to what's next ❤

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Thank you 🙏 😊

[@Lietjesmarket]

[@hannesofie6071]

Simply love Zeb!!! ❤❤ He remind med so much of my late Holsteiner (3/4 Thoroughbred) Nita (or actually Miss Nobody, but that didn't suit her at all!! ) She was quite the caracter, just like Zeb! Still miss her a lot!!! Think Michaela and Zeb smashed it this time!!! ❤❤

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

They did 😊

[@heatherbartlett6788]

Loved thank you both 💕

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@rmfan2092]

Zeb couldn't make that course look any easier... he just pops around like this is so fun. Michaela might be up there, but I feel like he's just on auto-pilot. A horse that loves his job.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

[@beckyjones5722]

It sure tells your finding this difficult having another on board your babies! But I do think you should be more shouting more from the ROOF TOPS what they are achieving and helping your guys keep fit more importantly! I say WELL DONE MIC!!!!!

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

Absolutely 👍

[@Sporkle180]

❤🎉

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

😊😊

[@kymdagnall8344]

Poor judgement in the dressage. Think he deserved better. Both look really good together. Though I bet he misses you on board. You’ll need to bring a chair soon Glad to see him still thinking he is 12 instead of 21 😂

[@MissJools11]

Zeb is like a fine Wine, he's getting better with age. He's not ready to retire just yet, Zeb still loves his X-Country!! Sadly the Dressage Judges don't like Zeb, no idea why!!

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]

@@ashleyharrisoneventing you have lovely horses

[@Golden1989-days]

Love you Ash but do you think it might be possible to stop the pregnancy whinges. We all know what it’s like but it’s honestly NOT entertaining. Don’t get me wrong, we are all 100% with you and obviously wish you the best. Just stop mentioning the negativity on every single reel or vlog. Just not needed xxxxx

[@margauxnodvin7478]

Clearly you’ve never been pregnant. 🙄 FFS, she made ONE comment about being tired from walking up and down hills all day while being so far along in her pregnancy. The only negativity on here is YOU, so perhaps you should just sod off and don’t let the door hit you on the a$$ on your way out!

[@MissJools11]

If you don't like Ashley mentioning that she's pregnant, don't watch her vlogs!! This youtube channel belongs to Ashley, and if she wants to mention her pregnancy, she can!! What right have you got to tell Ashley what she can and can't talk about in her vlogs?

[@juliaforsyth8332]

For crying out loud! She only mentioned she was tired. She can "whinge" all she likes. She looked exhausted. Being pregnant is hard work.

[@ashleyharrisoneventing]
