PIGS! It is a frightening experience if you're on a bolting horse, make no mistake about that. 

Apollo staying in place is a great testament to your training, his confidence in you, his good sense. He proves once again he's the ideal horse.

I’ve watched it again. It demonstrates how quickly a calm situation can change and so how vital it is to wear a hat. The relationship you nurture with all your horses came into its own. Apollo badly wanted to join in but stayed with you and was a rock. But that was very frightening for all of you and great respect to the girl who came off.

So glad everyone is ok…horses can get scared at the silliest things!

All 3 of you all handled the situation perfectly

You must really trust your horse, brave woman. Good boy

🐴🐴💙...Thanks for clarifying that Tara!🥰♥️...🐴🐴💙

Good job keeping Apollo contained. He really wanted to run with his horse buddies.

Good to see the horses .💕😊

Honestly I think that if you ride, no matter how careful you are or how well you think you know a horse, there’s going to be a bad day. I hope no one was badly injured.

Apollo is the number one horse in this moment, trying to call the mare back, keeping calm and not reacting to the bolting horses.

I hope the horse that bolted got some arena work when she got back.

So proud of our Apollo for keeping his head about him! He tried getting Poppy back and helped calm the situation. He did all he could do. Tara, you also helped by remaining calm and was empathetic to the girls. Apollo is our black diamond! 🖤🐴🥰

Apollo calling the other horse back 😭 if that’s not just the sweetest thing ❤️

My god , what a saint Apollo was, herd instinct tells a horse to follow them bolting horses, the fact he didnt do that was great, but on top of that he was so good as he waited for the horses to come back. So many horses would of played up, but all he done was call for them a couple of times . He really was amazing i was so impressed with Apollo . Fair play to the girls for getting back on and carrying on especially the injured one. This is something that can happen to anyone and a bolting horse is extremely frightening and hard to stay on . Im glad your all safe and sound but a big shout out for Apollo he was such a amazingly good boy to wait so calmly like he did and well done to you too Tara you was so calm yourself you handled it so well . Well done all xx

Your friend who fell off is extremely lucky that she didn't get trampled - being on a bolting horse is scary on it's own, but almost getting trampled by both your own horse plus another horse coming charging past must be absolutely terrifying 😬. It was good of your other friend (Kirsty I think you said her name was?) to warn you as her horse was coming past, too - that cheeky charger from a couple months back could learn a thing or two from that.

Apollo is so sensible and trusts you very much, as you said it had to be so hard for him to be obedient and stand when every equine instinct was yelling 'RUN NOW'. glad all are well, and sue only has a few bruises to show off....

Hats off to that young girl who came off - she did brilliantly walking and getting back on injured ,👍 Xx

Again Apollo showing what a trustworthy fellow he is by going against his instinct and listening to you. Actually calling the other horses back made me smile. He's a peach and does you proud.

You horse ladies are a hardy breed, I take my hat off to you, you didn’t just get back on to get home which is very courageous in itself, you then chose to carry on with the ride, now that’s hardcore 🥰 Apollo was outstanding during the emergency, pleased yes, but I’d say downright as proud as can be of his beautiful behaviour, if he really decided to go I doubt there would have been anything you could do except hang on. But once again he proved how special and trustworthy he is.

Well done Apollo. Not many horses would have stayed so calm. 😁

A bolting horse threw me into a house, then landed on the ground and splintered the bone above my left elbow and cracked my wrist in two places. Over 16 years since the accident and I still have fear/anxiety around horses. Bless Apollo for being such a good boy and keeping you safe ❤️

Apollo was so good - he would have fetched the horse back himself if he could...🐎.You were very calming Tara and took the lead in managing the situation...well done. Hope the rider doesn't have any long term damage. Apollo is always the star...hope he gets his second ride on the beach. He will have lots to tell Bella and Farouk when you get home.🤗🤗

I'm glad you noticed that about Apollo holding his ground... You are so right! He could have spooked as well and away he went. But that shows how well you have assured him that you will take care of him in a time of crisis. Well done to you both!!!👏👏👏 I glad it had a happy ending, and all is well. Minus a few bruises of course. ❤️❤️❤️🥕🏇🥕👍

Such a brilliant horse. He was gonna bolt but he stayed calm and kept calling out for his friends. Also bravo for the girl that manage to stay in the Saddle on the horse and congrats on that girl for getting up while injured

This gives me a whole new appreciation on the power of these animals. It is amazing, really, that us puny humans can control a thousand pounds of horse as well as we do.

Well I must say that woman was a real trouper to get back on after a nasty fall like that and to continue on with the ride. That goes for the other woman as well whose horse ran off with her. Apollo was as steady as always.

Apollo’s self control was impressive and then he topped it with adorable calls to the horse to calm down.

I am so proud of all three girls for wearing their helmets and keeping their heads safe. And I'm very proud of the girl for getting back on that horse and showing who is boss and not letting it get away with knocking that girl off and her not getting back on that shows the horse that she's not afraid and she will ride her again. Good job Sue

Quite interesting that Apollo was calling to Poppy! He was so calm and steady! Good boy! Again glad she wasn't badly hurt!

How sweet Apollo calling for the return of the horse. I fell off a horse and it leaves you shaken for awhile. But, you have to get back on the horse.

I was on a bolting horse,my horse and I fell also. I had a closed head injury,and broke my tail bone. She was very very lucky! Apollo as always was a perfect gentleman! Thank you for this video,people can now see what may happen when a horse bolts.❤️

This is my greatest fear. Tara, you and Apollo did so well keeping calm and just being so supportive and kind in a stressful situation. I hope the other riders don't lose too much confidence.

Just goes to show that we female equestrians are as tough as nails. Hats off to you ladies in handling the situation.

I just have to say-I’ve always enjoyed this channel. My interest in Friesians drew me in, then I was so impressed with Tara’s training abilities and horsewoman expertise. But this whole saga of Apollo traveling to the Jubilee event, and everything we’ve seen on this trip has me totally hooked. Tara and Rens-thanks for such amazing content.

I fell off a bolting horse and had injuries, I have never been able to get on again. I thank God Sue is alright and that Apollo was an amazing boy!

Good on both ladies!!! Did all female riders proud! We are all going to hit the dirt at some time….. the true equestrian saddles back up👍

So pleased that both ladies are OK...very frightening. I had a similar fall from a horse when I was 13, suffering a severe concussion with a hospital stay. It happens in an instant. 😬 Apollo was a star 🌟 🥰🐴

It's so good that Kirsty was able to catch Poppy and that they were both able to get back on so you could all ride back.

So relieved to see Kirsty was ok AND with the 2 horses! I noticed Kirsty's good posture when her horse took off, she was very upright, probably her experience.. You can see both Kirsty and Sue's experience in the sitn. I think you probably had a calming effect too, Tara, as well as supportive. And Apollo, who ws absolutely a star, just not enuf superlatives for that dearest boy!! Love him!! ❤😍❤🐎❤❤❤

No one çan fully comprehend how lightening quick horses can be until they experience a bolt. Well done Sue for getting back on & well done Apollo for listening to you Tara!

Apollo really is a champ...seems to have an understanding of the seriousness of the event and really trying to call the horses back!👍🤠🐎

Bolting and being strong is totaly different 😁 Apollo was good not to follow❤

Poor Sue and poor Poppy as well. Being frightened is not good in the moment. It’s hard hard to stay calm after that. Poor baby. Great job getting back on her!! Kudo Sue!!! So glad Sue is okay, prayerfully so. Bless. It’s hard to get back in the saddle after being thrown. Bless. ❤️🐴

Well done, Apollo 👏🏻, keeping your wits about you while all that bolting energy took hold of Poppy and Nero. Frightening indeed, even for the most seasoned equestrians as the three of you are. Sue’s no doubt very sore and “colorful” but hopefully no permanent damage….😩🤞🏻🙏🏻🫤❤️

This video gave me an insight into how Yvonne at Freisan Horses may have fallen off her horse a few weeks ago, she's been critically hurt but recovering thankfully. Happy to see this young girl was able to get up after her fall.

Apollo is a good solid horse. He wanted to run after the other two, but listened to his rider. And good on your friend for getting back on.

horses won't stand still for you to mount is not a good sign. apollo did very well though.

Apollo really holds a heart of gold he wanted to help that girl who fell badly from a horse, Apollo looks like he talks and says how are you? everything ok, I hope you are fine the girl

So glad Sue didn’t break anything and that -Elsa? Didn’t come off Nero/Neo on her bolt and even managed to catch and pony poppy back to you two. Equally impressed with your calm demeanor which assisted in Apollo checkin in and looking to you for direction . Exactly what you have worked toward as a side goal while training. It all pays off Tara. Again though your calm and confident manner have really helped shape and cement this as a herd leader of sorts. The key things I feel let’s a horse rider/ owner relationship down is m: lack of time spent with them in general. Stable temperament and calmness of mind breath and heart as well as a respectful trust.. By default, this means that no matter what is unfolding you don’t get emotional therefore you don’t yell scream and get animated, further solidifying the trust that they should look to you for the next move and go with it. Kudos to to you Tara.

🏇🍃🏇🍃Came across this video of the bolting horses with riders. After watching it, I was relieved to hear that all work out with the horses and riders being safe. ❤️ Love seeing how Apollo kept it together while at the same time trying to be vocal to the other horses. I can only imagine what he was saying to the other (2) horses. Congratulations to Tara for having Apollo who stayed calm through the whole time of regathering the horses & riders back together again. 🥰 Good job Apollo. 🤗🌿🏇🦋 Lynn 💜🇺🇸 ❤️💚❤️💚

I know you were so proud of Apollo for not being apart of that herd, which I am sure was tempting to him, obviously he has learned he felt safer with u. Good job Tara for being such a great partner to Apollo❤❤, that he felt less desire to be apart of that herd and more to stay with you. ❤❤

OMG! That is awful! What caused her to bolt? Not that it takes much, does it? Really looks like she just decided it was a great place to gallop, and off she went. I’ve been left on the ground myself a few times. I sure hope her rider isn’t hurt too badly. Having a horse stand on your leg can’t be good. I’ve only had them on my foot, and that’s bad enough! But good job Apollo! And good job Tara keeping him in line and calm! Hope it all ended on a better note.

I've lost a stirrup on a bolting horse and you have to really hold on for dear life. Kudos to your friend for not just holding on but getting that stirrup back, that's hard to do! The horse I was on was running along a fence and of course the stirrup I lost was that side. Really thought he was gonna scrape me off on that fence! To this day I can't believe I didn't come off.

Well done Apollo, such a credit to you Tara. Sometimes all the effort & discipline in the world can't stop a bolting horse. These beautiful animals are strong, stronger than us & when determined to take off, they completely overpower any sense of communication & our desperate attempts to hold them back. Its especially hard when in a group & they follow each others will to bolt off with that herd mentality, some say try to turn them in a circular motion but its easier said than done, especially when on a bridle track with windy surroundings. I've had a few bolt offs & it can be pretty scary. Apollo was amazing ❤

I will never understand taking a horse with issues out without fixing them first. Accident happens but when you know the risk and still asking for wheelchair life its weird.

Don’t do bitless:gives u a lot less control ..the thing is she was holding on by the reins and u have nothing to balance u ,rather then grabbing the mane,but didn’t look like she had much time in that instance. Could’ve been a lot worse..but bet she’s got a sore body. That’s your training tara,where u make apollo walk instead of cantering straight off.

Very well done all you ladies. 1. it was a good job it was a sandy road, 2. not a main road in sight, 3. Apollo behaved beautifully trying to gather his herd back together. Very brave of the girls to get back on and continue......it was certainly the right thing to do. Obviously the horses weren't injured so continuing would help to calm them down. A very anxious video, but also shows what can happen even to the best of riders.

well done Apollo and well done to the other ladies, get right back on

Apollo reacted superbly! A credit to you Tara, your training and your love and positive reinforcement. ❤️ 🐎

Glad no serious injury , just bruising and shock.

Sue was lucky & I'm sure she was pretty sure everywhere for awhile. Apollo did well like the good boy he is. Thank you Tara for the videos. I'd love to buy the sash & ribbon but too poor for that. That's ok. I have the videos of Apollo looking handsome with them 😃❤❤

Poor Sue that was so awful and Apollo was so good and would probably brought back the naughty girl.

She was lucky that she wasn’t badly injured. So glad that Apollo kept his cool as hard as it was when the other two bolted past him.

I wonder if something from the pig lots scared the mare and she bolted? I just don't trust a bit less bridle. They act on pressure points, but if a horse is really scared they can run right through that. With a bit you have a leverage to turn the horses head enough to slow it down to gain control.. the girls are much braver then I would be!! For sure!! Hope she was okay!

Tara you had two horses takeing off , i know what its like to come off many a time.Glad sue was okay 😁

So pleased everyone is safe. Well done everyone 😀💕

You are right it is terrifying..had it happen once. Apollo did well staying put

Apollo was calling the wayward horse. Such a good boy. So glad that Sue was okay except for some bruises. She is a brave girl.

Wow. Sue is one tough cookie. I was as unsettled watching her get back on as I was watching her fall off. It takes grit to do that. I was thirteen the first time I had a horse bolt. I got right back in the saddle, just not on that horse! 😉

Being thrown always an equestrienne's worst nightmare!🙁 Apollo's grace under pressure & instinct to "whinny" her back was amazing!🏆 What a stately stallion handling the sight of a tempermental filly! 😎 Tally ho! 🙆‍♀️

You can never be quite as prepared at that moment as you hope you will be. Those darn Saber-tooth bushes and wind-blown booger beasts are always waiting around the next bend in the trail. Good Job Team Apollo and a pint for everyone ! Toss a blanket over the pony, check for booboos and grab the icepacks for the rider. I'm sure those bruises will be obvious in a few hours.

I was on a bolting horse on a mountain trail in Colorado once, when I was about 7... No laughing matter, indeed... I held onto the mane for dear life + you never forget that mad dash + feeling! Happy to see all were ok in this video.🌞

I agree - if in doubt grab some mane.😄 Apollo was such a good boy.❤ As I said in the previous video I've only been on a bolting horse once, but have come off many many times. When I was a child I had a ride on a donkey he bucked me off and I was badly winded - I never got on a donkey again.😆

I had a quarter horse when I was about 12 years old. She bolted on me many times. In fact, she bolted one time when the neighbor boy who worked for the barn to take care of the horses went to get her in the field. He only had a halter (first mistake), she took off so fast and ran into a tree and knocked herself out for a bit. Out of all the horses I've ever ridden in my life she was the absolute worst for disposition.

Apollo was a good boy. So glad the girls were alright. I had a flash back to your video when Farouk took off that summers day. So glad you were on arable land and not near a road. I bet there were a lot of bruises poor thing💐💐💐

Well done to you and Apollo not getting caught up into that bolting malarkey! It’s happens so easy and often out of the blue and your never quite ready for it. Apollo did excellent not to react to that.

Gladnoone was hurt. The mix of windy and pigs is never good.

Love to see you guys wearing helmets. Too many equestrians don’t! This is why it’s important! You never know what can happen, never get too comfortable.

I thought the second rider went after the first horse to catch it. No? Both had bolted? That's awful! Makes Apollo even more of a champ for not bolting after them. WOW! He's such a Good Boy! And you're such a good teacher!

It is so amazing that she is walking it off and praising Apollo. Tough young lady and ever so loving of the animals. I do hope she heals up just fine and is none the worse for wear. Apollo was such a good boy to stay under control and I'm glad you didn't suffer any injury. He is such a good boy.

Oh wow....that was a really bad fall....poor girl must have been black and blue.....thank goodness all six of you were not seriously injured 🙄

I greatly admire their courage and strength to push through the experience. A fall like that is quite a shock to your body! I hope the rest and healing process afterwards went well. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Great APOLLO was good not to follow..very intelligent special horse!!🐴❤❤❤👏🏼🤗

I forgot to add: When I was in high school I had a strange horse out for a ride, one we were considering purchasing, when he bolted when a motorcycle came roaring up from behind us, chasing the horse off the road and into the puckerbrush. I can honestly say that at 16 years old I was terrified, convinced that I was not going to be able to stop the horse, I was not going to live to be in my high school graduation that week (my sister was riding with me, and it is the only time in 70 years of memory I have ever heard her screaming hysterically in fear!) . All I remember clearly , 60 years later, is that I knotted my hand into the mane so thoroughly that my grandfather had to cut the mane to get my hand out. The other hand was holding onto the saddle horn, by grabbing through the tree to get a longer lasting hold, as I fully expected to lose my seat, and come off being thrown up against the yellow and white pine lodge poles and being impaled on the broken branch stubs, hanging there like a victim in a horror movie! I admire Sue for the way she kept her composure, standing back up and starting to look for her horse right away, as the most important issue. And though she was obviously limping and, if the one contusion which was visible is indicative, looking like she had been put in a rock tumbler until she was all the colors of the rainbow, along with being very sore and stiff. I'm not sure how she found the movement to remount in the field, especially on a standard English saddle without assistance! Kudos to Sue! She has my full respect and admiration. And she is obviously a true and dedicated equestrienne!

I'm so glad it turned out well. It's nice she'll be able to see what happened in your video. I love the way Apollo was so involved with calling the horses. He's a wonderful herd leader. If I still rode it wouldn't be without a bit. I'm thinking now. There was one time a horse I was on just bolted and I couldn't stop him. He bit the bit they said. He eventually stopped when we came near a highway. It was scary. This video brought that day back to me. 🐴🐴🐴❤️

Dear me that poor girl will be sore today hope she’s ok. Apollo was a very good boy during that bolt off especially when the second horse shot off too. Hope your next vlog is all 3 of you having a nice canter on the beach!tfs😎🏇😎

Apollo you sweet boy!!! Thank goodness her ankle didn't break! I didn't realize that Neo was gone wild too at first. That woman held on for dear life!!!

Sue exemplifies the fact that when you come adrift, you get back on the horse again - or else you may never mount again. I have to add: Visual proof it's easier to field mount on a Western saddle. P. S.: Proves that Apollo trusts you more than he does other horses.

Bolting is not nice. Their heads go up and their backs hollow making it harder to balance than normal. That was a nasty fall.

Husband was with friends at a riding stable. He mounted his horse and the horse reared up and took off at a gallop down a path with trees on either side and some small branches overhead. He just hung on for dear life. The horse turned and galloped back to the stables with nothing hurt but my husband's pride. He doesn't ever forget that, though.

Apollo is so smart.

Oh no! Hope everyone is ok now :)

Apollo was such a good boy in this horrible situation!!

I swear you must have nerve of steel... Everytime I came off I always had the reins in my hand it's the strangest thing.....

pollo did very well. He knew what happened and restrained.

APOLLO DID EXACTLY HIS BEST AS GOD HAS BLESSED HIS ANIMAL ABILITIES COULD OFFER!!!😮😃❤💜🙏🙏👍🇺🇸

What a scary fall. Apollo was so good.👍🏇🏼❤️

Wow you are such an amazing rider.........that was extremely dangerous......you gave Apollo trust ......wow wonderful..........

You are a good rider on your horse Nannette

Apollo was champion. A class act.
