- I had a really fun grid work lesson a week or so ago on the worlds best pony! As you all know, we’ve been focusing on flat work quite a lot recently and haven’t done much jumping in the last couple of months, but Roger is just the greatest confidence giver over grids and we built up to what it’s actually quite a decent size spread for me! It was so nice to jump a bit bigger again as I’d quite honestly forgotten how much I enjoy it. (Totally aware this isn’t big in the slightest for a lot of people, but it is for a once-a-week riding school wimp like me!!). You’ll notice I also had a little swap onto another pony called Phoenix in the middle of the lesson, which was to rev him up a bit for another rider as he was struggling to make the distances between jumps (something he should find easy, but was making us both work hard for!). I clearly rode him like a potato - nothing a little bit of rein slipping can’t solve! - but it did the job and he managed to make the distance to the final fence.
After Roger and I had jumped down the final line successfully, the instructor decided we should try it without reins... The last time I jumped without reins was about two years ago, over a single 75cm upright, so maybe it was a tiny bit ambitious to try the entire grid with no hands, including the 90cm spread at the end 🤣 As there was no annoying interference on the reins from me, Roger pinged it a bit more than I was expecting and I totally lost my balance over the spread and thought I was going straight out of the back/side/every door imaginable, but Roger was an absolute legend and managed to manoeuvre himself back underneath me so I could regain my balance round the turn! A few years ago he probably would have got scared by the sudden weight/balance change, dropped a shoulder and helped me on my way, but he was feeling extra kind this lesson and I’m very grateful for it!!! It really makes you realise how much you rely on the weight change from your shoulders/arms being forward when you’re jumping normally!
We had a final pop over the grid (with reins firmly back in place...!) and finished on a really good note. It was a fab way to start the year and really nice to get back into the swing of jumping again!

👇 Every like is a pat for Roger for being an absolute legend and saving my butt when I nearly fell off 🙈😂
PonyCam just give Him a hug from me😍🐴
Liked! Lol 😅
i think Roger just grew some wings 😂 well done Claire 😍🙂
PonyCam give him a hug from me also the other year I was doing sitting trot ( when I started) and almost slid off the side but then my fav pony saved me 😁
He's a great pony x
"Oh yeah brilliant the pony can jump!" That got me giggling xD
Great Riding, Rodger looked like he had a great time!
lauren pelling We both had a loads of fun!
@@PonyCam how's magic and Herbie and mavverick
He's such a good horse
“Oh yeah brilliant the pony can jump!” My instructor when they ask me to jump the lazier ponies 😂
same, also the ones that dump the little kids and do bucking bronkos
I was riding one that done a mini rear
It was a chestnut
Love this pony so much you inspire me loads xx
Equestrian Millie He’s the best 🥰 thank you! Xx
Ay thats really cool! You are an incredible rider and my main role model cause im starting to jump
Roger was really jumping his heart out 💓
QOTD: I kinda love it, as it makes me feel like the horses are less likely to stop 😂😂
Good job today! You certainly jump at lot higher than me! 💕😍 Also, i like how today you've shown both gopro and just from a camera/phone view! Roger Dodger is such a good boiii ❤❤❤
Jess the horse it doesn’t matter how high you jump it matters how you look because if you are jumping smaller and have amazing form it’s way more impressive that someone jumping high that has awful form
Eeeee I’m never early! I love how you talk to the horses so calmly.
I love the different angles of the same run through. Very helpful!!
He kept his ears forward all the way through the jumps what a great pony! 🥺
I this video-I rarely watch gridwork because they are boring but I loved yours !!! Xx
QOTD: LOVE IT!!!!! I feel like it really helps my riding!!
This is my absolute favourite video on RUclips. I have had it on repeat for the past day xxxx love your channel ❤️❤️
I LOVE how his ears were forward the whole time!❤
I actually just had a grid work lesson on my horse this morning😀
Roger really suits you. That looked like fun but I personally hated jumping grids but my instructor used to put them up occasionally and I got better at them but still hate them.
Fabulous to watch!!! You guys looked like you were having a blast! 😊👌Xx
We definitely both had fun!! Xx
Roger's a superstar! Also I hope Robin is doing well!
QOTD: it depends on what horse I'm on to be honest, it's obviously more enjoyable for the rider if the horse is having a good time too!
You're really an incredible rider 😮 You always seem so calm and in control, I wish i'd be able to just get 2 jumps in a line without nearly falling off! You're really one of my role models in jumping at the time
Lots of love from germany ♡♡♡
He’s the cutest little horse
You are so good at jumping!!!!!!!!!
I don’t know what’s better:
You and your horse doing incredible
Or
Your instructor yelling “perfect!” After every round.
I could tell Phoenix was a struggle and you took him soo well!
"Ah perfect" hahahh love her voice!😍❤❣
He is so good on jumping!
seeing other people ride without reins is so fun but doing it myself is TERRIFYING 😂😍
Wow I love all your videos!! So being first is amazing!! ❤️ great work today you two!!
QOTD: I have a love hate relationship with gridwork. It depends on the jumps, how many jump and height and cant forget who I'm riding
Oml!! I love your videos!! I think horses are amazing! I dont get to ride, so i love watch these videos!! Thank you for making them
Lydia Ferrell ❤️❤️❤️
You're doing such a great job with the horses! I LOVE watching your videos! 😍
Good job!
Great job, you look so good on all horses you ride!!🐎😀
I love seeing both camera angles. Thank you
Awesome video as always💖💖💖
Keep up the amazing work😊💛
Absolutely loved watching you two work together. I’m just gonna say this: i think roger is a absolute legend 😂😍🐴
Started at the start of this year, I go to Wellington, and you’ve encouraged me to try and canter over jumps more XD Ty! :D
I love seeing you ride sooo good❤️❤️❤️
Haha amazing riding! ☺️
Loved the vid ❤️
I love it!!! ⚡️😱✨🐴
I love the instructors enthusiasm! Well done this looked super fun!
Katherine Asquith She is great!

Lauren Equine Thank you! 💕
@@PonyCam ☺️❤

Wish I had your confidence, that gap in the last fence gave me heart palpitations 😂 x
So cute together xx
❤️
You are making them look so easy
Well done Roger🐴❤️👍

Perfect jump! Good job! 😍
Natural Horse Thank you! ❤️
You jump so well, I am learning on my horse, Daisy xxx
Love Rodge! What a little dude🤩
Toddie He’s the best 😁
Good vid again!!!
Amaizing ❤️
The ‘flying....off....nearly’ had me. 😂
QOTD: I’ve actually never tried gridwork but I would love to as I love jumping and it seems so cool and exciting!!❤️
OMG u and Roger are a jumping match made in heaven xx P.S love ur videos
Just out but already love it
Aww Rodge seemed to love that! You ride him so well :)
Qotd: I like gridwork but I couldn't manage it too often, as it is very technical and tiring! The first time I rode in a gridwork lesson I ended up doing some unplanned acrobatics and landed on the other side of the jump, just without the pony 🙈😂
Grid work!
Lovely!! Very nicely ridden 😁❤
QuirkyBird 49 Thank you! ❤️
What a good pony Rodgers
Claire your such an amazing rider and it watched every video you have posted❤️
And Rodger did really save you there😂😂
I owe him big time 😂❤️
You did really well! Your horse is also really pretty :)
Claire your an amazing rider and Rodger was so good for saving you there😂
Amazing ❤️😇
Wooaaahh!!!
I loved it more good vids please
Great video. QOTD: I haven't done grid work before actually but have done jumping which I enjoy alot
Well done roger such a cute horse love him
Ty for LOVING this comment 🥺🥰
Roger is so cute ❤
your videos always make me miss riding! I mean, I could go back whenever I wanted but I wish the vibes at my barn were as positive and relaxed as yours 🙈 I've always ridden horses that require a lot of self confidence cause my trainer won't just give me calm nice ones😂 should I take it as a compliment though? lol. But I just wanna breathe for once!😂🙈 that's the main thing holding me back from riding again :/
your a super rider and roger doger is a scope ponyyy
You guys looked fabulous together, such an awesome video 💕
QOTD: I hate it becuase I had a really bad fall in a grid work course, and the horse I ride goes crazy down them
Jasmine Oakwild Thanks! Oh it’s not nice when they rush down a grid at 100mph or crash through it. Hope you weren’t too badly hurt after your fall ❤️
PonyCam Thanks, I was lucky and just got off with a sprained ankle and extreme anxiety which I’ve worked on ❤️
Excuse me?! Why have you not got a million subscribers?!
omg i love you on roger
Wow you rode superbly! You and Rodger are a wee team! (BTW 90cm is a decent sized jump, I'll give it to you! Especially since you only ride once a week!)
You or she jumps super well
Your trainer is so supportive ! All my trainer does is complain 😅😂 Its like she has no emotions !!!
You make those jumps look so easy
Thank you - Roger is doing all the hard work for me!
Literally every time you did it we all heard "OH PERFECT" 😂😂
Jess T Yeah I like this instructor 😂
Doesn’t Rodger not already have an owner or does she just loan him, as she takes him out competing and all 💖
Tori O'Hara Roger belongs to the riding school but ST Equestrian loans him, which means he gets used in lessons a few days a week, but she can do what she likes with him on the days he is ‘hers’, including competing/eventing. Basically she does all the hard work schooling him really well and people in the riding school, like me, get to take advantage of it 😄
QOTD I LOVE grid work and so does my loan pony Chino she used to be an eventer
I miss this view
“The pony can jump!” 😂 QOTD I haven’t really tried it before, but it looks great, hopefully can try this summer (my pony gets really fizzed up in colder months lol)
Grid work helps slow them down ☺️
@@avamartin9815 thanks for the advice, it would be nice for him to slow down but he is 20 now and it’s a bit to late too change anything 😂xx
You got probably 100 views from me! Watched it soo many times 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣its amazing you scared me when u nearly fell
You know what... I was thunking while watching... I was actually crying while watching this because i want a horse a good and great as yours... Example od me crying...(😭😭😭) i will get there soon hopefully
Thank you but Roger does not belong to be - all the horses & ponies in my videos belong to or are kept at a riding school & livery yard 😊
I was wondering what the flap on Phoenix's nose was. Also great riding!!!
It’s a nose net which helps with his allergies & head shaking 😊
video made me want to do this too
You was really good at that how did you do it 🦓
AOTD. I ha ve a love hate relationship with grids haha
QOTD: Depends who I'm riding. Some of the horses I ride are pretty slow
1:59 wow!
4:42 oof!
IM FINNALY EARLY
Hi lovely jumping. How high was the oxer. Love your channel
roger is soooo cute
Woww
Just a quick random question but I was wondering how many schools we’ll arenas your yard has? Only I’ve noticed quite a few! Xx.Xx.
Got To Love That Gelding This is the main arena, then there’s a much smaller indoor arena, and there’s another arena/area the same size as the one in this video that used to be used for the liveries to school in while riding school lessons were going on, but that’s mainly just used for turnout now. There’s also the grass jumping paddock, but again that’s just a field that’s used for turnout during the winter and jumping during the summer. Xx
