Trying Horses in Germany

Two mares I have tried in Germany on my journey to find a showjumping horse (hopefully)!
I tried lots of horses in Holland. Those videos will follow soon!

Please do one with a voiceover so we can know what your opinions are! 💕 Amazing video as always 💖

[@royalisabella8099]

First one is the best, great technique, great scope, great sire. Not only a talented mare but with a great pedi too!

[@oldageisdumb]

I know this is a super old comment but I just found the video. 😀 I agree with you. I think a lot of people like the 2nd mare because she’s “prettier” but the first mare had far more talent. And something about the 2nd mare’s hind end made me nervous. It seemed a touch weak..

[@sophieking5534]

the second mare seems very sensible and you ride her lovely although I do like the look of the first horse.

[@luizafonseca_]

I LOVE the second mare! She is amazing 😍

[@lyssakate]

Luiza Fonseca me too! I hope that's the one being vetted!

[@darkemporer3361]

Luiza Fonseca personally and techniqly second horse is a lot less experienced than first (I'm saying before watching the rest) and way to heavy, maybe because of diet or maybe because of genetics. But anyway. At small jumps technique is real real low, but when they pressed her to jump higher- she baskilled and made some effort. But then there's question- not too big effort? Like barring methody? We can quess, but I wouldn't ever take this horse for show jumping, especially if she has others, great and highly promising horses.

[@luizafonseca_]

Dark Emporer okay, but personally I still like her a lot haha I would buy her without thinking twice :)

[@shellykennedy5427]

The bay mare with the star and near hind sock went very well for you.

[@EgynyeregbenVELEM]

I like the first and last horse.

[@maizy2985]

Egy nyeregben VELEM! Thosr are all the horses in this vid

[@EddiesGun91]

There are only 2 horses in the video 😁

[@EgynyeregbenVELEM]

EddiesGun91 😂I know

[@dev-yy4sm]

The second mare was just stunning. You and her were a brilliant team together ❤️

[@charlottepage1916]

I'm excited to see this next step in your journey ☺️

[@patricijasukyte8825]

It is always amazing to watch you ride so professional, and amazingly bonding with the horse. Keep it up with the good job, love you!❤️🐎

[@lucarizard]

love the 8yo brown one, her jump looks sooo effortless :D

[@chasingchrome]

Can't wait to see who you choose! I was having my doubts about trying that mare twice, but you were right on! This next chapter in your career is going to be epic 🦄🦄🦄✨✨✨♥️♥️♥️

[@scorpioon67]

I LOOOVE both of them❤ these mares are amazing

[@luciejacques94]

love it ! hope you'll find the one!

[@ElessarEquestrian]

Says a lot about a rider when you can ride so many different horses so well! I think the first horse here was my least favourite with you out of all of them you've shown us. It seemed to really throw your legs forward and make you lean a bit on the reins- which is not a riding trait that you have at all or that we have ever seen. Have you found a winner or candidate yet in your search, or not yet?

[@EddiesGun91]

LittleBayArabian Xx I have found a horse... subject to vetting 😚😚 thank you! I agree

[@ElessarEquestrian]

EddiesGun91 excellent!! Very excited to see, hopefully the vetting goes well

[@RheeasDomain]

Maybe because the first one was made to jump in a martingale and the others not. Why they put a martingale on a jumping horse? either to keep the horse from raising his head, or just for the visual sake of it. Why does the horse raise his head? It's called going above the bit, done to escape pressure/pain on the mouth/gums. His mouth might be more sensitive but because the riders only know how to ride ONE way, it's "the horse's fault". Another reason people mention is building the topline... I don't know how come this happens to so many people but this is because he is being ridden before his muscles develop and in an improper way, maybe also incorrectly fitting tack, and due to lack of ground work. Also, the saddle slipped forward, when that happens you get down and adjust it. It is very uncomfortable for both horse and rider...

[@ElessarEquestrian]

Katja I am very confused by your comment, clearly you do not understand the purpose of a martingale.

[@xxcolourmecrazyxx]

I actually think the first one may be due to the saddle re her leg being thrown forward. Saddle is very forward on the horse (shout sit further back) and the rear rises off the back a lot when weight is taken off so i think the saddle may actually be tipping her forward.

[@baileyfreeman9609]

Loved the second mare!!!

[@Moppel9014]

I like the Diarado mare! There have been some lovely horses in the other videos too.

[@kokoskokosowa540]

I can't wait which horse will she choose ! 💕

[@claudiachurcher8372]

When you choose your horse could you maybe film them flying over to you in dubai?

[@GetYourGallopOn]

I looooove the second one!

[@millimcclure.equestrian5697]

Ahhh both horses are lovely, first one looks like a pocket rocket🙈 you ride the second so well!

[@junior621994]

Loved the 2nd one 😘 The 1st one seems a little bit too heavy on the front for me 2nd one makes me think of my horse, a little cold on the legs, easier with spurs 😂, can seems a little bit heavy but with a heart of gold when flying above the fences and always doing his best and giving all he can ❤️ I hope you Will find what you’re searching for ! Sorry for the mistakes and my poor English I’m French ;)

[@EddiesGun91]

junior621994 thank you 😁😁 I agree

[@jasminejenkins804]

You are so lucky yet so am I . I have a amazing horse who is probably no where near to the amount these horse are being sold for yet his personality makes up for it

[@tabihandy7641]

Yay another video never been so early in my life lol

[@Bluefinn9791]

The first mare shown here is definitely my least favourite, I didn’t enjoy her movement and she seemed to really run away from the jumps after landing! Just watched your Holland video and really enjoyed the second mare shown in that, she seemed really honest and experienced! Excited to see if you find the right horse, good luck! 😊❤️

[@rubyequestrian8014]

Never been so early! The first horse is gorgeous

[@maiireyna1816]

Amazing

[@robertwinstanley8138]

I rly liked the first vid like this that you did with a voiceover

[@MiyaAnderson]

The last horse look like your fit in my opinion but you rocked on both horses ! 😍‼️

[@maizy2985]

I’m so curious about the horses you tried in The Netherlands

[@MissKiotosClips]

Get the Dicardo mare! You two were lovely together and she very scopey

[@lucymorganeq6050]

on the first one the saddle is super far forwards. but love these videos!!

[@LaurenAllport]

I know ........ the owner wanted it there :o

[@lucymorganeq6050]

NEddiesGun at least when you get a horse you can fit it correctly 🤣❤️

[@danielle4201]

Lucy morgan Well if the owner wanted it there, and not there on another horse, Im sure it was for some type of reason

[@lucymorganeq6050]

danielle it’s on wrong, it shouldn’t be on her shoulders as she can’t move as freely and put pressure in the wrong spots. Maybe they had inexperienced people like you tacking up?

[@danielle4201]

Lucy morgan I know how to tack up lmao. I wasn’t meaning to trigger you in anyway. I know all of that. Im saying if the owner wanted it there, maybe theres some type of heath thing going on. There was an old horse at a place I used to ride at who had something wrong with her shoulders and they’d place the saddle different. No need to be rude lmao.

[@averycrook6229]

Hi I was wondering where/how do you find horses to try especially when they're in a different place? btw love the video❤️

[@lilienjohanna4307]

i like the second horse a lot!!!

[@macey2001]

I wish I could travel to another country to find my new horse! I’m looking for a jumper but the problem I am having is I don’t have a big budget so I’m struggling to find the right one :/

[@bowlbeesaur]

First Mare was my favourite

[@IvyMPDressage]

That first mare's saddle looks very far forward?

[@EddiesGun91]

My Sweetie Pi yea the owner likes it there...

[@pkequestrian6388]

They were all too far fowrward

[@ajgensel9359]

Really think you saved the best for last, really good looking, heavy boned mare and so nice over fences. Hope the vetting goes well. Were either/both of these mares in foal or does this farm just prefer the fleshier look?

[@EddiesGun91]

aj gensel fleshier look haha 😁

[@JustAgirly0]

you have so many horses its amazing (and makes me jealous X'D) is it thanks to your job?

[@graciesizemore4895]

Oh what a amazing opportunity

[@StajniaLaskonik]

First mare had saddle almost on her head, I wonder it was slipping forwards because of her bodybuild or it was just put on her shoulder blades from the beginning?

[@nicolou10]

AHHHHH I love Diarado horses!

[@2bzyblack]

Stiff horses, Chin chin is still my favorite

[@sydneywilliams3363]

I hope the one you pick is one of these two just so we can see the difference it would make to move their saddles back in future videos. But if that’s what the owners want I guess there’s not much you can do 🤷‍♀️

[@jessyholland8601]

errigal flights offspring are amazing jumpers

[@thisisnicyl2141]

I agree, last horse seemed a bit flat and heavy on the fore. Second horse had power and great distance . Made the jumps seem effortless.

[@marissanieves4157]

2nd and last horse are the same horse. there is only 2 horses in this video..

[@thisisnicyl2141]

Marissa Nieves Thank you for pointing that out. I didnt notice The third one was a second try on The second. That just means Then The second try The mare was riding vastly different than The first try.. between The two i would still choose second though. First one too fragile...

[@raw_equestrian6268]

They were all really nice but I don't think they were as scopey and beautiful as urano

[@EddiesGun91]

Millie_the_cob Urii is king haha

[@danielle4201]

All horses are beautiful wym

[@chloecotton6787]

why did the bigger mare slip a couple of times?? xxx

[@l-ii-n-a6191]

Germany 😍😍😍

[@jesshosier1246]

I bet she will buy the last horse if it passes vetting

[@User-ri6qe]

i really like the third mare

[@EddiesGun91]

EquiiSteph 2nd and 3rd are the same horse .. 1st and 2nd ride 😃

[@noctesrebellionem212]

The first horse looked a bit small, but she jumped amazing

[@Lurkerlady]

Its looks like the mare you tried twice jumps better when she had a little bit more of an extended/bigger canter. Is that correct or am I totally wrong? She jumped beautifully, shes my favorite from this video! :).

[@EddiesGun91]

KSShowjumping you're right 😁😁

[@Lurkerlady]

EddiesGun91 :D. Would that be because conformationally she just has a hard time rocking back before the fence with a more collected canter? Or is she just a bit weak in her collected/shorter canter?

[@JustAgirly0]

i was just watching an old video of yours XD

[@armoredwings4182]

The first mare seems a bit front heavy to me. I don't know if it's because of the saddle placement (looks too far forward, idk who tacked her up cause I've never seen you do that) or if she's slightly downhill or if I'm just seeing this. She just doesn't seem to be using her hind legs much. I like the second mare after she warmed up a bit. Jerky "robotic" movements though. Again.. Who put that saddle on the withers? I know you don't do that! (Gonna stop picking on that now, but I will say that they would have moved better had the saddle not been so far forward) The third mare was the best out of all of them in my opinion. Very heavy landings, but that could be the shoes making it sound rough. Her movements were flowed much better than the other two.

[@LaurenAllport]

2nd and 3rd horse are the same.. first and second try. The owner puts the saddle more forward than I like it. It blocks the shoulders where it was in this video. Thank you :)

[@armoredwings4182]

Oh oops! I didn't realize that XD

[@Itsshan03]

Saddle sits on the withers I hope you know that 🙄 if not you're a horrible rider and not a professional like you say you are

[@ElessarEquestrian]

Fifty_Shades Of_Otaku what do you mean ? If your saddle is sitting on the withers if is not correctly fitted. There should be clearance and the saddle should sit behind the shoulder to not block the movement

[@Itsshan03]

LittleBayArabian Xx I'm sorry I was taught by a professional to put the saddle on the withers!

[@emilienatalie8635]

I love the first one ♡

[@funkyanimalz]

I second this!

[@emilienatalie8635]

isa // he could be such good jumper 😤♡

[@funkyanimalz]

Exactly! His jump is soooo nice ♡ I would love to try him

[@chloe.1596]

they're both mares

[@pureeventer5606]

Could you please include prices? That's just something that interests me because as of now I'm looking for a jumper myself

[@hayley2457]

Pure Eventer i think they’ll be quite expensive so she probably doesn’t want too much criticism for spending that much as people get jealous and chippy

[@A7Xspazz]

Pure Eventer i can only imagine what these would cost in the states...like a house is a better investment lol

[@Keymixable]

Mia Mia Actually, a decent jumper like this in germany doesn’t cost much more than 15k to 20k, maybe even less. I worked in a dressage sales stables and the horses did pirouettes and such difficult moves and the price tags were as low as 10k. It’s all about the quality of the movement aswell, some horses sell cheaper even if they jumped high, mostly because of the lack of wanted style. :)

[@A7Xspazz]

damn...i would not be surprised in the slightest if these horses would run you 6 figures in the u.s.

[@Keymixable]

A7Xspazz Yeah, the horse market is a little different in the US than it is in the EU. Also germany produces horses with good pedigree in such pace it’s possible to sell them with low prices.

[@danielle4201]

Guys she is traveling, please mind that she can’t make time to do a voiceover and Im sure there will be many videos in the future with voiceovers 💕

[@samanthaxxx5033]

Is it just me or do both horses, especially the 1st one. There saddles are far to far forward?

[@pennyapples5694]

Wtf why did the guy tell you to stop petting the horse? Like bruh at least the horse is doing its job

[@MyWayofEverything]

Really didn't like either of these. The first had more scope to me but neither seemed like fluid and athletic movers

[@Rubyblessingg]

It might just be me but is the second mare lame or have something wrong with its back leg idk..

[@DinnerOnTheFloor]

What is the breeding of the 8yo mare??

[@EddiesGun91]

DinnerOnTheFloor Diarado 😁

[@musicxhorsesaddsup]

I liked the last horse and the second horse the bed except the second horses trot seemed wonky but I think these were the best tries you've had so far I love Germany and there breeding programs they really do produce wonderful horses

[@marissanieves4157]

2nd and last horse are the same horse. there is only 2 horses in this video..

[@jacintasannen2578]

Is urano still yours?

[@EddiesGun91]

Jacinta Sannen yes 😁

[@iwonkazieba2003]

Go to Belgium. In Belgium is the best show jumping horses.

[@EddiesGun91]

Iwona Zięba I went to SenTowers😁

[@iwonkazieba2003]

EddiesGun91Yesterday I was in CSIO Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup of Poland at Sopot and belgium team with belgium horses won, so must something be in that 😂😂😂

[@merelverhelst127]

oh that's a beautiful place!!

[@itsluzifer9603]

That’s literally the only thing we’re good at. Horses.

[@honor9968]

Please please do a voice over next time to give ur ur thoughts

[@EddiesGun91]

My Life I'll do a vlog and talk about the trip soon 😁

[@Kristina__K]

Both were lovely - especially the second mare - but the owner(s?) were awful. The saddle position is just wtf and did they seriously ask you to stop petting her? Idiots, honestly. Shame it's the only place you tried horses in Germany; there are so many more knowledgeable and nice horse owners/sellers in Germany!

[@EddiesGun91]

Kristina saddle were too far forward in my opinion but horses were really well cared for 😁

[@Kristina__K]

Oh, I didn't want to imply they are negligent owners at all, they just don't come across as nice people in this video (which is an admittedly small glimpse of their characters :D) Thanks for your reply :)

[@Kristina__K]

I guess I was just so mad at the saddle position and comments haha I should know better than to comment while emotional ;)

[@Itsshan03]

The saddle should sit in the withers not the middle of the back 🙄

[@Kristina__K]

The saddle shouldn't block the shoulders. Which it does when it is too far forward. Yes, a saddle shouldn't be too far back, but it also shouldn't be too far forward.

[@arneschumann8469]

Why are you trying so many horses?

[@merelverhelst127]

she wants to find the perfect horse

[@EddiesGun91]

To find the right one!

[@zoeblair1818]

I am selling my horse and she has to move to Germany 🇩🇪 now

[@maddyhannah6214]

girl. are you rich??? you have tried a million horses in a million different places and all of them look fucking expensive as fuck. i wanna die

[@amrelsisi7366]

to be honest , I didn't like them both

[@sophieking5534]

the second mare seems very sensible and you ride her lovely although I do like the look of the first horse.
