Shut the front door!! Do you realise how seriously impressive you are to be placing in the top ten at a 4* when you only have one horse to compete at this level? I wish I could see the other angle at the water with the barrels, how you approached it and the striding. That caused some issues for some top riders and horses, but Zebedee was like ' I got this mum '. The music and filming in your vlogs is great. What a great team with your dad and partner too!
Aww thank you so much! 😊 It does make the result that bit more special that I only have 1 horse at this level against all the pros with numerous horses at that level! Yes we do have another angle actually so will try and share that with everyone! Will definitely be up on my Instagram in the next few days! He was absolutely brilliant and did really help me out 😍 Thank you so much! Definitely couldn't do it without any of them!
Ashley - I’m convinced you’re super-human! The way you bash out clear rounds so casually on such challenging tracks, all whilst eating your malt loaf 😂
I don’t think you gave yourself enough credit... to be thrown out the saddle and loose a stirrup but still kick on for the next jump at those heights is so impressive!!! You both smashed it, I’m buzzing for you!! What a team 👏🏻
Congratulations on placing in the top TEN! All of the racing around from class to class, changing horses and competing against the Olympic Team riders… you should be so proud. Besides ALL of that, your beautiful manicured nails and you didn’t break a nail!!! Very Impressive! 😂🎉❤
You know I have a thoroughbred who isn’t exactly built for dressage but we still manage our way around dressage the best I can with his body. But once those thoroughbreds get their hearts set on cross country, watch out…they ride to win. Zeb’s personality reminds me so much of my boy your such an inspiration to me!
I really enjoyed watching your performance. It was easily as interesting as watching the Olympic hopefuls and I can see you right up there with them in no time. I’m now 82 years old so it’s many years since I rode, but horses are in my blood and will be till the day I watch my last round of CC. I must say that Zeb is a wonder horse. Well done
so so well deserved!! also just lovely to see how much of a family operation it is and how amazing the support network is - it certainly takes a village! you must just be absolutely buzzing still - what an incredible achievement to finish top 10 in a 4* against pros when on a self-produced horse!! just goes to show that the partnership between horse and rider is of utmost importance. a pleasure to watch as always💕💕
Thank you so much!! That comment means so much 😍 It definitely is! I couldn't do it without the support of mum, dad and scott! Still cant believe it! As you say to finish top 10 against all the pros on a horse who shouldn't really be going round 4* but does because he wants to and we have such a great partnership means so much!!! Glad you like the videos ❤
Absolutely incredible Ashley, you have some seriously talented horses!!!! You and your horses did so amazingly, your an incredible rider, my absolute role model
You can see how both of her horses pay attention to what she says and they are both having fun because there ears are pointed up the entire run they both had
oh. my. god. when you said you placed 9th in total, and there were 67 other riders, (that was on an olympic level), I was mind blowed. wow. you are such a talented rider.
Just watched this & I don't know how I missed it last year--you were amazing, so bold! Horses were amazing--has Zeb EVER refused/run out on cross country? And he was apparently on a real psychological high, having managed to inflict 2 injuries on you in 3 days--he is the Bad Boy of the stable! I didn't catch where Max placed but he lived up to his name.
Amazing vlog! So excited for the amazing placings with both boys. I got those pre-show jitters sitting here watching, especially when you walked the 4* xc, but then you and Zeb made it look so easy! It's a good thing Zeb did so well, because he was quite a "bad boy" this weekend, biting you and stepping on you. So, so happy for you, and it was so much fun to be able to "go along for the ride". Such great xc footage as well...
Thank you so much! Both boys were amazing 😍😍 Zeb did make it feel easy and was such a good boy! Glad you enjoyed the video and felt like you were really there with us following along!
Wow! This was my first eventing video. WOW! It really does take a team to do this sport, what a lovely family you have! Oh and AMAZING beautiful horses!
Wow Ashley what an incredible result! You have no idea how invested I was after your amazing clear SJ I was rooting for you all the way around XC but I knew zeb had it! 💪🏼💪🏼 Massive well done you must be over the moon 🌟
There were so many different bits in this vlog that made me chuckle! Always love how your vlogs are put together and really take us along for the ride! Fab result on both boys 🔥👏🏻
I’ve got my first BE90 with my horse this weekend and this video has given me the biggest boost, so inspired by your attitude and riding, look forward to the next vlog! X
Well done to you Zebade and Maxamus it was like every jump both boys had grown wings looked like you all had fun as well and at least now you know that you need Zebade before every show needs to stand on your foot and bite your arm hope your feeling ok sorry if this is not how you spell the boys names
Congratulations !! Amazing riding and amazing horse on the XC !! BRAVO for your top 10 !!!! And also some nice camera angles on all the vlog, courtesy of Scott I imagine, so thanks to him as well.
Thank you so much 😍 Zeb was incredible on that XC course and helped me out!! Thank you so so incredibly happy with a top 10 finish 😊 Yes definitely all down to Scott the filming and editing!!!
I’ve just found your channel and I love it! Your whole family is so supportive and the editing is sick! Best channel I’ve come across, kept me so interested - I’m going to watch all the other videos now 😁
Aww thank you I’m so glad you love it!!! My family are amazing and I definitely couldn’t do it without them!!! Scott does such a good job with the editing 😍 glad you love them 🥰
I’m embarrassed to say I can’t stop watching this LOL the way Zebedee jumps that last show jump on such a long stride and it just looks so perfect. It’s almost like he was giving the middle finger LOL
I just love your videos and I think you’re an excellent rider and I know you’re going to be in the Olympics your excellent And I’m writing from Virginia in the
Wow!!! They both went fantastic in all three phases and you rode incredibly!! A joy to watch from Start to finish!! Scott’s videoing/ editing is so good too! Really added to the drama/ aesthetic! Loved it! Xxx
This just made my day! So damn impressed by you... Your videos just got me through a horse-less winter and a horrible break-up... I was finally able to ride some riding-school plodders this past month and next week, I finally have a horse to loan again. On those long, dark, wet days of winter, your videos were what kept me going... your supportive family and your determination and professionalism are so inspiring to watch. Thankyou. And well done! You totally deserved to place top ten... brilliant riding. xx
Aww thank you so much 😍 I'm so sorry to hear about your break up and horseless winter but so glad you're able to get back riding again!! At least you've now got the nicer weather now you're back riding! I'm glad my videos have helped! 💕 Thank you so much definitely couldn't do it without all my family's support 😊
Wowzers. Fantastic video. Great story telling and fun to watch. Well done Ashley, Zak and Max. Brilliant results. All your hard work, dedication and talent is now shining through and bringing you the fab results. 😊
Wow done a really good job there can’t see why you couldn’t finish first because you’ve done that cross country like a pro well done very proud of you and the two horses give them a carrot for me keep safe from Ally in Jersey channel inland ❤️🥕🥕
I'm new to your channel, that was some seriously beautiful riding! And I know the pain of the trodden upon foot, the big guy (half Percheron!😳) in my profile picture got my pinky toe good last week, it HURTS! You rode so beautifully, though, congratulations!
Lovely to see your family all so invested in your competing. Your vlogs are always so uplifting and fun to watch. Brilliant results too. Good luck in the future.
Brilliant results! Maximum is a stunner! Can’t believe Zeb was beating you up all weekend!! You’re family are the bomb- so supportive!!! Wow the editing!!! Wish I could edit like that! Must take Scott- forever!!! Xx
Maximus definitely is!! Hahah I know but I don’t mind! They are so supportive and I definitely couldn’t do it without them!!! It does take Scott quite a while! He is a legend for editing for me! 😊😍
Just found your channel and JESUS I'm so impressed and inspired! What a ride, what a team! Time to binge all of your other videos while I look forward to the future ones!
