Again, the ears tell the story. Apollo is having a ball! Tara thank you so much for being such a great example of courtesy and kindness. I love how you always speak to walkers and wave thank you to autos.
He’s saying….walk? I’ll walk but it’s a fast one! … you definitely have your hands full with his energy Tara! Isn’t Apollo amazing?!! What a horse! ❤️❤️
He & Farouk have been comparing notes about endurance!🤣I love how his ears so show his state of mind: "Yay, I'm in front" "Boo, I'm behind". Looks like a nice ride. And as far as him not wanting to walk, well that's what you get for having an in shape & condition forward horse!😁😜
I'm just amazed at Apollo's stamina! He just keeps going & going! (Like the 'Energizer bunny' commercial here in the US). What a fabulous horse he is. I love his sneaky way of walking... half walk / half trot! Haha... He thinks he's fooling his mum! Love these videos Tara! Blessings!♥
The big man can cover a lot of ground. The Apollo walk is impressive, but when he started to trot at "cruise" he over took the others very quickly. He is a mover. Everyone is very pleasant, even in the event of a near collision. Apollo is an impressive horse ... seems to be able to canter forever. I'm sure you are getting a work out too, Tara. I enjoy this video very much. Thank you.
Apollo is just loving his outting ♥️🐴 he gets that's fast walk on and you wonder when he will start a trot or run! Nice area to ride and very nice people also. Love to see the change of weather from cold to starting of spring. 👍♥️👍 Apollo is a thrill to watch how he listens to you but how he tried to sneak a run in, instead of a trot!♥️🐴🥕🥕🥕♥️
With his huge stride, he takes half the steps of others. Of course he feels fresh after an hour 😆 Sheep are great lawn mowers, but they do crop it close.
🐴🐴💙...😂 I didn't know Horse's could Skip!🤷♀️😂 Apollo, your One of a Kind!🥰🐴👑♥️...WHOA!🙈 disaster avoided!🏇🏇♥️...WOW! Now that was a total Rush right there!🏇🏇🏇🚀 Those 2 were fast! Apollo was moving too! Awesome!😍 You are so polite Tara!🥰♥️..."Phew", thought maybe that Horse might have injured itself♥️...🐑🐑🐎🐎😍...what a Ride this was! Loved it! Thank you ever so much for sharing and All take care!🙏🥰🤗🤗🐶🖤...🐴🐴💙
I love it when the first thing I hear on the video is Apollo's trusty and determined hoovies, whatever gait, Tara's or Apollo's! It's lovely terrain and great weather. Glad of no collision. That horse was fidgety before that so good she's walking to calm him down. You have to have eyes and ears everywhere Tara! At least you know Apollo will always do the best and safest thing he can for you. Absolutely loved the little black sheepies! So peaceful-looking. ❤🐎❤❤
There seems to be a lot of spring fever going round! I’m impressed with how fit Apollo already is. This is a beautiful and very fun ride. So glad to be included! Thank you!
Lol, love Apollos "canter in place" 🤣walk Apollo! Nope, cannot do it..... Sorry mom... LOL, Tha sure aas a close call collision 😳yikes! I love the homes you ride by... Is the city far away from them?
Nice of those girls to shout and warn you, not to mention apologising afterwards (which should be a given, but somehow it isn't). A bit of politeness goes a long way!
It is always a joy watching Apollo , he loves his canter and would love to be first , but he also settles down, when you want him walking. I was surprised to have these two horses come at you from behind, but at liest they gave you a warning shout. Some of the riding trails are quite nice, but then a dirty one sneaks in between . Apollo is do fit and he looks also quite strong, and you know Tara as beautiful as always !
Just want to let you know when I 1st started watching your channel, I had no idea how wonderful it would make me feel watching the fine houses that are in your care. Thank you so much for everything that you do for us, your eager followers and supporters. I am always so grateful. 🤗🙂👍👍👍
Apollo is truly magnificent; he just goes and goes and goes! How nice the two riders called out a warning! I daresay you will be tired after this ride..,.😅😅❤️❤️❤️🏇🏇🏇🌄🌄🌄🥰🥰🥰
I’m not a horsey person but I love these videos! The sound of his hooves and the tiny twitch of his ears as he listens to you. He’s wonderful and what adventures you two have! It must be good for your soul x
🏇 "But Boss, there's more horses out in front I have to catch!". Apollo must be on high alert - he's scanning more from side-to-side than radar dishes do! It may be my perception, but that paint and bay are always riding tight to one another, much closer than a horse would tolerate from anyone other than it's stablemate. Two final observations: 1. Any horse which ran into Apollo would rebound while Apollo just stood there; and 2. I saw Apollo eyeing those hurdles along the side of the way. He really would make a good jumper as he appears to enjoy it.
can you imagine Apollo as a war horse with a knight in shining armor on his back? or carrying king Arthur into battle. legends are made with a horse such as Apollo.🏇👑🏇👑🏇👑🏇👑🏇👑🏇💞👍
A great ride with plenty of enthusiasm Spring fever in the air for quite a few horses. Glad no one was hurt. Apollo is so fit and keen after all the hunts he’s been too. He was certainly eyeing up all those jumps made me chuckle. 😂 I think the sheep are Black Welsh. Happy Easter to you Rens and the herd and Ikey 🥚🐰🐣
Your description of Apollo “thinking he is a Faroukles” is too funny. He has really been ‘on’ and so fit in these recent outings, which have been very enjoyable. You sure are on your toes keeping him in line.
I love that Apollo is getting a chance to do these rides.He is really improving his fitness.And he really enjoys it.if he keeps it up, he will want to race Farouk 😊.
Apollo has quite a nice canter, doesn't he? I love how his energy is still enthusiastic and Herd Leader-ish! Sweet sheep. 🐑🐑 What a cool event for the two of you! ❤ 🏇🏇🏇👍 Those are lovely photos at the end of the video. The green grass really makes Ike shine.
Apollo is certainly fit! He was on a mission! Mom we know you like to go fast and Farouk doesn’t like to walk either! 😂 Happy Easter to you and REN’s, Ikie, Apollo, Farouk, and Bella! ❤❤
Bit scary there but it was okay and those of us who have watched a bit know that a well-trained horse and experienced rider can have a stuck gas (petrol) pedal or a brakes issue. Loved the black sheep, nice little self-powered mowers, can see why you'd be tempted by those cuties😊🥰
Apollo is just loving this and still raring to go. Close call with the two girls but tg no one was hurt. Great galloping today you two will sleep like babies after this.tfs😎🏇😎
Great ride thanks for taking us with you 🐎Love the sound of Apollo’s hooves on hard surfaces such a reassuring repetition. I would have Jacob sheep although living down here on the south coast I should really go for Southdown 🐑You are very fit to do this ride,well done both of you 👍🏻
Bit of a speedy ride...😅 the two girls who had brake failures seem to be a bit close to being out of control. Good idea to dismount and walk a while. Apollo is certainly fit......not a novice ride today....😅
This near-crash reminds me that, since I tend to ride the Sound Mare™️, I'm often the rider who handles these little events by either getting at the front to lead the way in a "can't overtake me" manner (thus keeping the naughty horses at the back in line) or by closing the group to have a bit of no-nonsense at the back as well so the other horses don't inspire each other too much into a race.
You do such a marvelous job fitting your horses up! I love to see them enjoying their outings so much. Do you ever get nervous about the energy and speed?
Apollo said my brakes won’t fail Tara, I could stop in a flash but of course I’d have to careful that you didn’t go for a flying lesson over my ears, just joking, but ghe best way to keep out of trouble is to keep going at a steady canter out in front, it’s the best place to be for a herd leader, other horses will take note of my immaculate care and behaviour limiting risk to everyone. Now let’s go, I’ll talk to you in sign language using my ears as we go along, if they are pricked forward if means let’s go, if they are slightly back it means I’m open to discussing any situation we come across and if they are laid right back it either means I’m very annoyed or there is extreme danger and be prepared.
Again, the ears tell the story. Apollo is having a ball! Tara thank you so much for being such a great example of courtesy and kindness. I love how you always speak to walkers and wave thank you to autos.
Just what I was thinking, he couldn't get them any further forwards, bless him 😊😊
Never ceases to amaze me how much ground Apollo can cover with each stride.
I agree! I’d imagine those others are two steps to one of his. I think he’s amazing.
He’s saying….walk? I’ll walk but it’s a fast one! … you definitely have your hands full with his energy Tara! Isn’t Apollo amazing?!! What a horse! ❤️❤️
Apollo's thoughts when he's on the move and comes up on other horses, "Move your bums over. Friesian powerhouse coming through".
He & Farouk have been comparing notes about endurance!🤣I love how his ears so show his state of mind: "Yay, I'm in front" "Boo, I'm behind". Looks like a nice ride. And as far as him not wanting to walk, well that's what you get for having an in shape & condition forward horse!😁😜

Apollo is strong, smart, gorgeous and just plain WONDERFUL!
I'm always in awe of all the beautiful places there where you can ride.
Agree COMPLETELY Witchy Woman. The UK is so accommodating to horses and so beautiful.
Lol you could see Apollo pick up the speed when the horses passed him.
Apollo is like Farouk run run run and more running lol
The off road tracks and headland seem endless. Nice to see no cars
The big man can cover a lot of ground. The Apollo walk is impressive, but when he started to trot at "cruise" he over took the others very quickly. He is a mover. Everyone is very pleasant, even in the event of a near collision. Apollo is an impressive horse ... seems to be able to canter forever. I'm sure you are getting a work out too, Tara.

I love how Apollo says EAT MY DUST!
Apollo is indeed very fit like a Faroukles 😂😂 raring to go 🐴
Whew 😁 so glad there wasn't a collision of the three horses 😳! Apollo's multiple cheatsies 🖤 were adorable. He wants to run ❣
He is so awesome! And I’m so jealous of you, smile🙂
Looks like everyone's full of energy, Apollo is in his prime and loving life, it's all about enjoying life!

I don't believe I have ever seen Apollo so fit!
Apollo with his giant galopping , sounds us like music in the ears, such a good beautifull boy
Think it’s so lovely you say hello to people as you’re riding past, I just know they’d be looking on in awe of you all!
There seems to be a lot of spring fever going round! I’m impressed with how fit Apollo already is. This is a beautiful and very fun ride. So glad to be included! Thank you!
You could almost imagine Apollo merrily cantering around that whole ride!
Apollo needs a badge. I’m in charge in my pasture and on the trails. Such a good boy
Lol, love Apollos "canter in place" 🤣walk Apollo! Nope, cannot do it..... Sorry mom... LOL, Tha sure aas a close call collision 😳yikes!

sneaks in between . Apollo is do fit and he looks also
quite strong, and you know Tara as beautiful as always !
Apollo sure enjoys being in front. He is herd leader at home and thinks he should help these horses out by being their leader as well.
I LOVE his on the spot canter, he’s like Muuuuum I am so trying to trot but my legs are doing their own thing sorry, my bad. He so gorgeous.
Just want to let you know when I 1st started watching your channel, I had no idea how wonderful it would make me feel watching the fine houses that are in your care. Thank you so much for everything that you do for us, your eager followers and supporters. I am always so grateful. 🤗🙂👍👍👍
Forgive me. Horses ... not houses.☺️
Apollo is not the only one who is very fit. You must be very fit yourself to ride that whole course !
WoW...Apollo really is in great physical shape....this trail ride doesn't seem to be too much of a challenge for him at all...nor Tara!😊🐴✌👏👏👏
Lol Apollo can’t be bothered with all the other silly shenanigans, of no brakes.
Love the sound of Apollo Hooves on the tarmac😁 Apollo is enjoying his self ❤😁
I love the clop-clop-clop when Apollo trots on that harder surface. He is so fast for such a big horse.
Apollo is truly magnificent; he just goes and goes and goes! How nice the two riders called out a warning! I daresay you will be tired after this ride..,.😅😅❤️❤️❤️🏇🏇🏇🌄🌄🌄🥰🥰🥰

Seems to be lots of hard pavement on this itinerary. Love the sound of his hooves.

Proper full on Apollo walk !
Wow, Apollo sure has been full of beans on this ride determined to be up front with his cheeky fast walks 😂🐎🐎❤️🥕🥕🥕

oh wish i was as fit as Apollo😁
I love the sound of Apollos gait at any speed! Beautiful area too. Thanks!
Cheeky Apollo❤
I am like Farouk ... he's my Brother.
Lovely ride and scary.
Stay safe dear friends🏇🏿
😊
All of your horses are so fast.
There should be bigger and more obvious arrows pointing the way on these rides, I’d get lost 😂😂😂
I love your videos. You're so kind and patient with your babies; love that.
Apollo 🐎 reveals everyone's level of experience, horses and riders alike
Wow - either he has a huge stride, or I’m getting used to my old QH mare’s stubby little legs.
Apollo has quite a nice canter, doesn't he? I love how his energy is still enthusiastic and Herd Leader-ish! Sweet sheep. 🐑🐑 What a cool event for the two of you! ❤ 🏇🏇🏇👍
Those are lovely photos at the end of the video. The green grass really makes Ike shine.
A spring in everyone's step ❤
Nice ride👍
Apollo 🥰
Apollo is certainly fit! He was on a mission! Mom we know you like to go fast and Farouk doesn’t like to walk either! 😂 Happy Easter to you and REN’s, Ikie, Apollo, Farouk, and Bella! ❤❤

Zoom zoom zoom, every horse thinks he's a Mazda today!
Wow 😮whoa 😳 what a ride 😮❤😮
👍😁
Apollo is just loving this and still raring to go. Close call with the two girls but tg no one was hurt. Great galloping today you two will sleep like babies after this.tfs😎🏇😎
I love the view from your camera, I get to see Apollo’s lovely neck and head, and a great view of the countryside. 👍🍀💜🐴
😊
Happy Easter Tara & Rens 😁 Icke Apollo Farouk Bella ❤❤❤❤😁
Oh my apolo is full of energy I just love him
😊
Great ride thanks for taking us with you 🐎Love the sound of Apollo’s hooves on hard surfaces such a reassuring repetition. I would have Jacob sheep although living down here on the south coast I should really go for Southdown 🐑You are very fit to do this ride,well done both of you 👍🏻
tfs
Wow! He's fit!!
Thank you Tara ❤ I love these videos🐴
Bit of a speedy ride...😅 the two girls who had brake failures seem to be a bit close to being out of control. Good idea to dismount and walk a while. Apollo is certainly fit......not a novice ride today....😅
I agree, better them being in front out of the other riders way.
👍
Cute sheep. Reminds me of the Herdwick sheep in Cumbria🐑
He does so well for you. He also looks so happy doing this. He has that same ground covering walk that my Moriesian mare Nyobi has.
👍😊

Lovely ride….. I have missed Apollo’s rides😊
Exhausted just watching it!🤣
Black sheep! I've never seen any before 11:45
You do such a marvelous job fitting your horses up! I love to see them enjoying their outings so much. Do you ever get nervous about the energy and speed?
Not at all
Eh ma we are getting better at this we no longer need a map x
Hi Tara looks like Farouk is really doing a great riding with those horses he is always a good home to ride
That’s Apollo 😊
Fun to sneak a peek into backyards! 👑is planning to finish big! He’s so healthy and fit, 👩💻’ll need to work out.
👍
I hope they don't drive like they ride.
Happy Easter Tara
thanks and same to you
Apollo said my brakes won’t fail Tara, I could stop in a flash but of course I’d have to careful that you didn’t go for a flying lesson over my ears, just joking, but ghe best way to keep out of trouble is to keep going at a steady canter out in front, it’s the best place to be for a herd leader, other horses will take note of my immaculate care and behaviour limiting risk to everyone. Now let’s go, I’ll talk to you in sign language using my ears as we go along, if they are pricked forward if means let’s go, if they are slightly back it means I’m open to discussing any situation we come across and if they are laid right back it either means I’m very annoyed or there is extreme danger and be prepared.
Hi, Tara, I love your videos! But I am concerned, isn’t Apollo a little limp in his left front leg?
No
Does Apollo change his pace just from your voice commands?
yes he does.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
He's not gonna calm down because all you do is run. Try a week of walking and slow trot.
you should take a look at Apollo when not at his fitest
