@@penelopesky1257 her seat changes a lot, her hands aren’t soft so it’s harder for the horse to jump and she is looking too late at the jumps which also makes it harder for the horse because they have to pick the distance even though the rider has to pick the distance. She is also getting left behind on jumps. Her legs are also swinging back and forth in hunters which I do you need to make your ride effortless even lots of these things are basic.
She is a good rider though she keeps switching from half seat to full seat canter and her position and legs aren’t the best at being stable but also she gets left behind on some jumps but otherwise she is really good
Money can buy a nice horse but it doesn’t buy soft hands, a good seat, good form, a good eye, or anything else. she clearly has skill and is a great rider as she’s had horses her whole life. y’all can be so quick to judge 😭
Her hand and leg aids look soft and supple. I just wish her reins were a little bit longer. She had the contact but they looks a little short. No doubt she is a talented rider though.
@@julianicole8521 i mean her release over fences. Her hands stay fixed just slightly above her martingale. It's typical of flat hunters, no evidence of an effective ride. It was clearly a good round, but for that height you'd expect a bit better release. That's all.
@@caseymetcalfe2248 it really depends on the horse also. I can’t let the horse get to much rein, if I know, it’s going speedy Gonzales after a jump. Sometimes a little Control is better than none
Doesn’t matter if you do the hunters, eq, jumpers, ride western, dressage.... You can tell she knows her stuff. The way she asks him to move up down a long approach or come back to her and collect his stride approaching a rollback, she has the connection. She collects him with her seat and supports him through the turns with her leg. And that my friends, is the correct way to ride. The give and take, using her leg to pick him up into her hands. The power is coming from the leg up. I respect the hell out of people that utilize their aids with the concerns of the horse coming first. Rich or poor, famous or not you can’t watch this round and say she doesn’t know how to ride. And again, might I add, ride correctly. That’s my Ted talk don’t expect the haters in this comment section to understand what i said anyway!
Exactly! You can’t fake a quality ride- a horse is an amplifier of the rider- shitty riding gets bad results on even the most push button horse. ( we have all been there) so seeing a quality ride on a quality horse is undeniable. The people who are criticizing are coming from a bitter place and are simply jealous. It’s obvious that she knows her eq. and that was a quality ride. If people can’t see that ( for whatever reason- jealousy/ignorance etc) then they need to return to riding school. Would I like to have long legs and an expensive horse? Hell yeah! But that’s not in the cards. No big deal, I’m happy with my 14.1 hand sweeties even if I’m way past pony age.
This is a equitation round, and why do you think it's boring? You must be used to jumpers, or don't ride. Yes jumpers goes faster but in hunters and equitation you are judged on how your horse moves, and how the rider looks, you go steady as the time does not matter. I think no round is boring, you can always learn from them and improve yourself. her pace was perfect and she had a steady canter the whole time. This round was amazing!
OMFG PEOPLE MOST OF YOU ARE SO HORRIBLE who gives a flying fuck if she didn't train the horse she looks great she didn't pay herself into the sport she's been doing this her whole life why do you need to come on here and say she's a shit rider if you have nothing fucking nice to say don't FUCKING say it ugh omg
You know this horse was trained by professionals right? Not by Bella. It was trained to be the best of the best. The canter was slow and bouncy the whole way through. The horse was steady and didn't blink wrongly. It was too perfect to be true. Even actual professional riders don't have it this easy. No hate, like do what you want, who am o to judge and say otherwise but........
Ahh was waiting to see the comments on her not training her own horses etc. Shes a great rider. Whether she could afford an experienced horse or not doesn’t matter. She still has to be able to school it, keep it fit and stride it correctly to the fences. Thats not easy. Plus most horses on this circuit in America go like this. It’s just how they’re trained
@@sophieconnor9979 I am anything but jealous. Look if you want to believe she done this all by herself go right ahead and naybe she did, we'll nevwe know, but as a real equestrian here I know that it's never this perfect.
Cas T as a fellow equestrian too I am disgusted by people like you. Who cares if she didn’t train the horse herself? she’s out there having a good time enjoying life with her and horse, people like you have to pick out the negatives of every single damn thing. Let the girl ride the most expensive horse, ITS NOT hurting anyone else, people like you constantly bring the equestrian community down and it’s a real shame. The horse commuting all share the love of horses but a large percentage of us clearly can’t stand to see someone whose more successful than them, at the end of the day I pity you, the inability to feel happy for another person and always feeling the need to bring others down must lead to a very sad and pathetic life.
Gorgeous ride you had a really good connection with your horse. Also it’s so sad to see how ignorant and jealous people can be thinking that you horse is “a packer” when they have never seen the horse in person nor do they work with the horse. Again great ride and you can’t buy that seat or ability to connect ;))
Ok everyone needs to stop. Just because she is rich and famous doesn’t mean that she buys her way into everything. Because if you didn’t know, she has had horses her whole life. Therefore ridden her whole life. She has worked to get were she is. And as for the comment above mine, you are no top level trainer. I have looked all over the internet and can’t find you anywhere. So no, you have no right to say that stuff.
I'm not trying to say that she hasn't worked hard or anything, but when you come from an incredibly wealthy family it's significantly easier for you to be successful within the horse world. Yes she's had to work, but she's also had access to all the resources she needed to get to where she wanted to be.
@@sarahsteele6935 I'm genuinely not trying to start anything, but it is close to impossible to get to a high level within the industry without a lot of money backing you. Entry fees and equipment alone cost more than most families can afford, never mind lessons, travel, board and feed costs. Again nothing against wealthy people, but it's getting harder and harder to get anywhere in the equine world without money.
Omg, this ride looks so good, to me she looks like she is riding better than most of the riders in higher classes. No ripping on the reins, no extreme use of the legs and a standard bridle. Her horse looks so comfortable in what he is doing and he listens to the slightest signs she's giving him. I'm a fan
she’s genuinely talented
My coach would absolutely put the horse on a lunge line so Bella could work on her position and other mistakes
what mistakes?

She is an amazing rider look at that soft seat, no pulling of the reins and y’all are so quick to judge she clearly is a great rider

Bella Hadid is the definition of, if what Old Money Heiress is.. She's Soo Soo expensive..
I see a lot of hunters leaning heavily on their horse, this is not the case. She has a very nice seat.
She makes to look effortless which means she is very good at it :))
Who are you??
Her seat is gorgeous, she’s very calm and precise. Steady hands, no pulling the reigns, supports her horse well throughout.
She jumps beautiful 👍💗 It looks like her horse and her got a amazing teamwork and relationship💗
bella has skills, you can’t fake that. it’s really sad because she always wanted to become a professional horse rider
Blue Ribbons for days!!!! I’m in love with your pace and riding techniques
Guys she could ride before she modeled she use to compete before modeling that was her number one thing
Money can buy a nice horse but it doesn’t buy soft hands, a good seat, good form, a good eye, or anything else. she clearly has skill and is a great rider as she’s had horses her whole life. y’all can be so quick to judge 😭
i had no clue she rode and she’s actually pretty good too
Her hand and leg aids look soft and supple. I just wish her reins were a little bit longer. She had the contact but they looks a little short. No doubt she is a talented rider though.
For people who don't know Bella have been riding horses since she was a child literally she grow up in a farm
She’s a good rider tho
She is like a princess, everything that she did is great
Such a nice horse, and she rides very well- soft and kind hands.
She's the reason I wanna be a show jumper ✨💕
I don't know if this is the way you meant it, but just gonna let you know she was riding hunters not jumpers.
she’s not a show jumper
@@LK_1311I don’t think this is the hunters lol I believe this is an eq class bc in eq classes the horse’s names don’t get announced usually
That was excellent
the wink<3
She was so good omg
Me... Waiting to see a proper release, or any release for that matter, at every single jump... Nada.
there’s clearly a lot of points in the video was the tension in the reins is relaxed. just look for it

The weeknd was right
Her horse was on the wrong lead the entire time
Nope, she was on the correct lead the whole time. The inside leg is always leading, as it was. :)
Nope she was correct
nope she was definitely on the right lead
Beautiful rider she is
What a beautiful natural rider she is
This is sooooo boring, nothing happens! Her ride is nice though. But this horse needs to wake up!

Bella and her first real love
That was a great job in regards distances, concentration and exactitude. However I really missed the dynamic of the ride.
She looks very soft
Her eq is good, not my absolute favorite, but she’s still a very good rider and she looks very confident and calm.
Good ride but really bad horsemanship to show a horse that lame.
Kameron Smith he’s not lame tho at all
He was moving perfectly, he had a bouncy canter yes, but thats what equitation riders want. Not lame. :)
@@sarahdevincentis8483 I'm not talking about his canter, I'm talking about the very obvious head bob in the trot
I thought the same,very obvious at the trot
he isn't, in hunter the canter doesn't have to be fast
I'm really impressed! Belle has a fabulous seat & Night Cap, what a mover, huh?! 🏆🏅🐎🐴🦄
that canter is flawless 😍😍
This horse is so kind
They look gorgeous! I can’t seem to find anything they didn’t do right
Brava! What division is this? Fences are what, 3’3”? I’m assuming you placed high in the class, great job
It looks like big eq so probably 3’3 maybe 3’6
Beautiful horse
