Okay she had her moments... But what an incredible save she made when that other pony stopped, and well done you for sitting it so well! You had so much more control than the first time!!!
Loved and was scared silly watching this! I was mostly a classical dressage rider but did hunt on borrowed horses that I had never ridden before. That was an exciting adventure. I have some suggestions for you to keep you and your horse safer. I used to retrain off the track Thoroughbreds. The first thing you need to do is learn how to keep the horse in the “corridor of aids.” Your horse is always crooked which means it is in control, not you. The reins are there to shift the forehand or the haunches, not control the forward motion. When the horse is straight, your seat can be used to control the forward motion by using a “rising canter.” (That means that you sit on alternate strides in a regular rhythm that YOU choose. Believe me this works wonders. I have used it to regulate some very fit strong Thoroughbreds. Now, the reins: From watching you ride, I saw you use only direct rein so the horse ducked out the left shoulder and took off. You need to learn how to use the indirect reins preferably in a dressage ring where you can practice at slow speed starting with walk, then trot, then canter. School your horse well on this and it will be much easier. In an open field I would have turned your horse hard left AT THE BEGINNING WHEN FIRST ENTERING THE FIELD BEFORE THE FIELD TOOK OFF. That would have gotten her left shoulder back in the corridor of aids. She is predictable so get ahead of her tricks. If you have never heard of indirect rein in front of the withers and indirect rein behind the withers, find yourself an instructor who does know how to use them. Your legs support the reins by helping to maintain control of the hind quarters, keeping the corridor strong. I got my first horse in 1962, my Horsemaster certification in 1975, and 2 weeks ago I rode 2 horses. I’d like to see you achieve that kind of longevity. Wishing you many more SAFER hunts. ❤️☮️🖖

"fruity language and heavy breathing" ♥ 😂
I can’t cope with these hunting videos I piss myself 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Your commentary is top form 🥹 Well done 😂❤
Oh my life when that horse low key crumbled in front of her 😱. She did so well! She's a hoot 😂😂
Ever thought of a standing martingale to stop her head going on the floor 😂 looks terrifying
Absolutely bonkers letting go of the reins with both hands 😂 Fab vlog, thoroughly enjoyed x
Get entering your first be/unaffiliated of 2023. Miss sez is ready to go....
Jesus Christ when she jumps to the side and jumps the hedge 😳 what a girl!!
I think hunts need to have oxygen and defibrillators available!! That looked terrifying!!! 😱😱
Yaaay brilliant that hedge was something else, Seren saved the day ✊🏻🥳 nevermind brakes, good job 👏🏻 such a solid mare!
Well done, you both did great , Seren jumped well. Love your videos.
That jump!!! you did so well to stay on!! xx
That looked like a lot of fun with a few hairy moments. She was very good and brave too. Well done.
The commentary always cracks me up 😂🙈
OMG! I was gripped - great content!!
There’s an art to hailing a cab but holding onto the buckle ! I love hunting it’s just sheer adrenaline.
So funny, Your so brave love it.
loved it your pony is a star and you are very brave
