I love that Diva's owner is happy to take your pointers on board! You both ride her so well and she's such an eager, talented mare! So excited to see what you guys work on with her during your stay!
wow this is a total revamp from when you started working with Diva. I will say she has a flick when she trots so I'd be curious to see what she looks like in an extended trot. Diva was amazing with you and then she was really responsive to her owner. The owner must have been a jumper prior because he didn't flinch at the height and while Diva was different with him, she still had a great demeanor and attitude. You must love riding her, she's such a willing partner! Bravo Holly!
My horses canter is what I call 'non-existent' as she just rushes really fast with her head up, she keeps swapping her back legs and never really listens and doesnt relax. Were trying to find a way that would work for her to relax and build her strength so I'm so glad that you have managed to have a nice steady canter xox
This will actually help my stock horse who has never been taught how to jump so she runs at them. She loves jumping but she runs at the jump a lot but we can't jump in the arena and I have anxiety so that doesn't really help ....... Whenever I go out with her I will do this. She is also really clumsy with her feet so this will help with that to. Thanks for the help Holly :)
You're doing her magic on her, wow! Such an improvement in just how relaxed she is in her frame now. And yay for Andrew being now also in front of the camera. I assume he's been the camera man? If so - thanks for that, Andrew! :)
Wow, Holly. I can see such a big difference in Diva. So much better now -- nice shape over the jumps and clearly more relaxed and even. Well done. Andrew must be thrilled with this loan relationship. Hope all is well with Khal, Dali and Wellbeck and Fiona. I miss seeing them on your vlog and your Dad, the groom :)
If Andrew is open to it, I would love to learn more of Diva's background and more about Andrew and Diva as a pair and his story and if he has other horses, etc. Diva is mega!
You should do a Q&A about your laon horse. Example horse breed, sire and dam, what she was breed for (work horse, race horse, etc..), if she has been put to foal, and so on, i think it would be fun to learn more about Diva 😊
Oh what a difference in Diva now!! You are doing a really fantastic job with her hun. To say she hasn't yet got the ideal level of strength in her back end, she sat back on her hocks and jumped those higher fences well. I cannot wait to see how high she can actually jump when you get her sorted Holly. Looking forward to seeing more of your amazing progression together 😘
Hi Holly your doing a cracking job with Diva and explain easily to everyone, you look really well Aussie is good for you. Hope work is going well be good to hear your Dads voice again one day he’s funny.tfs😎
Can’t believe someone has disliked this video 😱 I love your videos holly and always admire the way you ride. the way you explain everything Walt’s your ridding always helps me if I’m jumping or doing flat work 😊🐴❤️ your an Inspiration ✨
Such a useful video. Had a few scares with my horse recently along the lines of rushing, particularly with the bigger jumps, and it was becoming a bit of a problem! Thank you for the tips! :)
Diva is loving your consistent and gentle approach, you’re doing such a fabulous job!!! (as you do with all your horses) She looks lovely, and I really enjoyed all your explanations and training tips.
Great video. I am definitely trying this out with my boy who thinks all jumps including cross poles must be tackled at 100mph . Love th3 carrot stretches, I do this evertime after riding too.❤
This video was very useful for me! I ride a percheron/TB mare (VERY athletic) but she tends to get quick and strong sometimes. I am going to practice these trot and canter pole exercises with her! Thank you!
Thank you for this. I have an awful rusher. He will come around but if he gets time off, he's back to rushing again. It's lucky he's such a good jumper that I can actually focus more on his approach. XD He's one of those who likes to take pole-fence-pole or bounces as oxers!
Oh my goodness she's going so well! Sometimes I watch your videos with .75 playback speed. It makes it easier to see what voiceover holly is talking about. Only thing is it makes you sound half asleep aha 😅
You've done great work in improving her rhythm! I would say less stretching down though as it tends to put her on the forehand and she's already built quite downhill. Look at how she carries herself on the flat with Andrew; less heavy on the forehand with more self-carriage and nice and open in the throatlatch area.
the pony im riding at the momment has been doing this due to the owners daugter getting or her and running her around all the fences so this video will denftly help me thank you
I’ve tried different ways of getting her to do them eg over a pole or across a diagonal so I kind of know and she has done then before she she kind of knows too 😂
@@toastandbutterrr oh ok, well something that might help is going across the middle of the arena and trotting and immediately going to the other lead. Also if she/hes good at that you can go across the middle, half halt, and basically just put one leg back like your asking for the canter and keep him/her straight
I have trouble figuring out where to put the pole before the jump after? Like how many feet. My mare rushes around quite a bit and I love the exercises you do with Diva in the video.
Hii , im not sure if this is a silly question and im sorry if it is , however latelt iv been watching your videos and finding them very useful , however you state in this video ''its imply important to make sure u get them back into a relaxed and slower rhythm'' - (i know not in those exact qords but along the lines of that) but i was wondering if u actually have any extra tips or videos that could help and explain ways of bringing them back into a mire relaxed and slower rythym , as my gelding as tends to rush alot even when not jumping and iw as wondering of u had any tips on how to slow that rythym down
Hi Holly, Just a thought. When you finish up in Australia, maybe you should come to Florida USA. I've got a horse that I would love to loan you. As I said, just a thought. PS-The weather should be really nice at that time of year and we have really great vets here. BE BLESSED!!!
How often do you work on the pole exercises? My mare rushes, and she's 22 now, so I'm not sure how much I can fix the rushing. But I'd like to try lol! Thanks for sharing your tips!
Another fantastic video... 🙂😉😁 Her sweet sexy irish voice makes me fall asleep 😴 but not because I'm bored in the slightest lol it just reminds me of those cd's which help you fall asleep!! I often lay in bed watching these & wake up still wearing my headphones & holding my phone!! I love all of her videos, especially the connection she has with the horse.. perhaps the gentle voice along with her fantastic riding hypnotises the horse lol
Diva has improved enormously Holly...you ride her softly and quietly, so she just relaxes and enjoys it.
I love that Diva's owner is happy to take your pointers on board! You both ride her so well and she's such an eager, talented mare! So excited to see what you guys work on with her during your stay!

You are doing a great job with Diva - there is such a difference in her. Hope all well with you & your family (2 legged & 4)🙂.

Me, too.
Im open to it 😀
@@andrewmason1689 ooh yay! I hope a video is made on it! ☺️
I need this for my boy, he rushes so much
Brilliant improvement. So many people need to use these basic simple and fundamental skills. Thank you so much Holly Diva and owner too. Xxx

i think she already has idk lmao
She was bred and trained to race but never did

Lovely to see her progressing so nicely. ❤️🐎
Diva is such a bright chestnut-blazing! Love her color.

Always love your voiceovers. They are super educational!
We have been working a ton on poles as well! Its helped a lot with my guy's confidence

One of my horses likes to rush so this is really helpful thanks Holly😊
She improved so so much! It's really nice to see you ride another horses and how you choose to work with them 😍
Holly you are doing a great job with D! Thanks for the voice over!
Thanks! really good exercises can't wait to try it.
I've been waiting from this video from you! I have a 6 year old thoroughbred who rushes at EVERY jump, so this will be awesome!
Great video. I am definitely trying this out with my boy who thinks all jumps including cross poles must be tackled at 100mph . Love th3 carrot stretches, I do this evertime after riding too.❤
This is so helpful, thanks so much! I've been trying all of the exercises you have been recommending and they have been working a treat.
Huge improvement in such a short time! So good! 👏👏👏
This video was very useful for me! I ride a percheron/TB mare (VERY athletic) but she tends to get quick and strong sometimes. I am going to practice these trot and canter pole exercises with her! Thank you!
Lovely to see your progress, the 6 months are flying by, you are missing the cold English weather, lucky you! 😁
Massive difference in her Holly well done 👏
Really nicely ridden and so helpful…thanks
Your an excellent teacher
So lovely to see you riding! Great tips (even tho I’m dressage!). Love watching your vids!
Thank you for this. I have an awful rusher. He will come around but if he gets time off, he's back to rushing again. It's lucky he's such a good jumper that I can actually focus more on his approach. XD

I'll definitely try this, my boy may need it
Amo seus vídeos, servem como inspiração para mim aqui no Brasil 💕
I don’t even jump but I still found this so entertaining ❤️😂
Thank you so much definitely will try these at our next arena hire! THANK YOU!! For this 💟 You guys look fab!
Great job! So many rushy jumpers out there.
wooow that was a great video. i am gonna do it with my thorobred horse . learnt so much from it.
Your leg is like glue. So still I’m jealous ❤️🐴
This is sooo helpful for me an equestrian because I ride ponies alll the time
Thanks, this was such an interesting video!
the pony im riding at the momment has been doing this due to the owners daugter getting or her and running her around all the fences so this video will denftly help me thank you
Huge improvement well done
How do you teach them do do flying changes? I want to try but I’m not sure how
Ok quick question. Does your horse know how? Or do you not know how?
I’ve tried different ways of getting her to do them eg over a pole or across a diagonal so I kind of know and she has done then before she she kind of knows too 😂
@@toastandbutterrr oh ok, well something that might help is going across the middle of the arena and trotting and immediately going to the other lead.

@@toastandbutterrr it might help, its how I did it with my pony and horse but every horse is different so just try different methods 😁
@ Sierra Palmer thanks I’ll try that when I’m out of isolation and she’s fit again 🙄
Really enjoy your videos. How are you liking Oz and how does it compare to home?
I have trouble figuring out where to put the pole before the jump after? Like how many feet. My mare rushes around quite a bit and I love the exercises you do with Diva in the video.
i had a 2 stride line on this chestnut mare thoroughbred and she did a one stride and got really fast and i fell off luckily only my leg was hurt
i think we need more Andrew in vids!!

Omg my pony always rushes to jumps I’m going to really use this information
Hi Holly,
Just a thought. When you finish up in Australia, maybe you should come to Florida USA. I've got a horse that I would love to loan you. As I said, just a thought.
PS-The weather should be really nice at that time of year and we have really great vets here.
BE BLESSED!!!
Hello happy for you that you like it in Australia and that you can ride. Are there a lot of snakes in the fields? And if yes, are you afraid?
Holly when are you coming to the US? I want you to lease one of my horses lol
What drills did you do to get her to relax into the canter?
How often do you work on the pole exercises? My mare rushes, and she's 22 now, so I'm not sure how much I can fix the rushing. But I'd like to try lol! Thanks for sharing your tips!
How many strides did you put between the poles again?
I need this!
Amazing video as always! X
Beautiful ❤️
Do you ever miss Khal and Dali when your over in Australia?
Yay a vid
How big is your new arena ?
You could use pool noodles as foam poles😂😂😂
I’m in Ireland I’m going to bed in a minute after this vid
Steven is CUTE!:)
She has improved so much! I still see this small, nagging thing that makes me worry she’s not totally sound? Maybe it’s just me.
It’s because the sand is very deep in places, she’s perfect on flat ground
Hi Holly I might not be a vet but when D is in trot she looked a bit lame 💕
The arena looks quite dusty/heavy, that might also just be it
yeah I thought she looked a bit tight and clunky in the trot but very nice in the canter .. definitely improving
Chloe, Holly would NOT being riding Diva if she was Lame.
@@MissJools11 I am sorry I just thought 😔
I wouldn’t ride a lame horse. The arena is very deep in places which causes her stride to become choppy and unbalanced. She’s perfect on hard ground
Have you got diva on full loan or part loan? She’s so pretty (obviously not as pretty as welbeck tho 🤫)
Привет
Another fantastic video... 🙂😉😁
Her sweet sexy irish voice makes me fall asleep 😴 but not because I'm bored in the slightest lol it just reminds me of those cd's which help you fall asleep!! I often lay in bed watching these & wake up still wearing my headphones & holding my phone!!
I love all of her videos, especially the connection she has with the horse.. perhaps the gentle voice along with her fantastic riding hypnotises the horse lol
I always think you have way more subscribers aha
What do you guys think her breed is? I think tb
She is/-an earlier vid stated that.
My horse all ways go's really fast up to a jump
Pole wrork
