Loved that chestnut mare Belle for you. You and she learned so much together in the short time I saw in this video. You always learn so much from riding many different horses. Get well soon!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦
Belle all the way Tina - this was a wonderful opportunity for you and you rode extremely well Tina - to experience all that knowledge there with others would have been so inspiring and a necessary challenge for your future - look forward to part 2 and thank you so much for taking us along, loved every moment.
Belle is beautiful Tina,so was the grey and bay. I think you would buy the bay if you had to choose even though the other two are gorgeous. You rode them all so well I’m very proud of you. Your a beautiful soul inside and out. Cannot t wait for part 2. Feel better my sweet friend.tfs🤗🏇🤗
So glad you've enjoyed yourself in Germany with all the gorgeous horses. I don't know if I'd have the nerve/confidence to do something like that so it's lovely to be able to live vicariously through your videos xxx
@@LifeontheLeftRein Goes to show how far you've come - it's been a real privilege to watch your growth - thank you as always for sharing your journey xx
You are more capable than you think! It's so easy to downplay your own riding. You are a good rider -- you are attentive to the horse, listen you your instructior, take in and correct the "mistakes" you make. Three very well ridden lessons! Very exciting vlogs
An awesome vlog. Tina, you rode brilliantly, with such confidence and so forward. You should feel really proud of yourself👏👏 Mata Hari is gorgeous & you looked great on her. Belle looked more tricky, yet you rose to the challenge. The only limitations you face, Tina, are the ones you set up yourself. You are, in fact, a truly gifted rider, and you have worked really hard. You deserve a horse like Belle - scopey, capable & a challenge❤ Look how far you have come with your precious Banksy, and it's not always been easy🥳 When it's time to start looking, you go for it🫶
You are very right saying it’s not always been easy. I think a lot of people look and see him as pushbutton but it definitely hasn’t been!! The amount of times I ended up on the floor in the first 18 months of owning him and the amount of air canister I went through… I could probably buy Bell with what I spent 🤣🤣🤣
@LifeontheLeftRein Banksy is a hot horse. I remember some of the challenges you faced. You really have worked extremely hard (& continue to do so). Embrace how far you (& Banksy) have come. You are brave, you never give up, and you are so full of joy. It's so easy for some to critique from their sofa - but it's you who pick up the 'guantlet' and ride. You & Banksy are to be celebrated for all you have accomplished and appreciated for taking us along with you🎉🎉
Wow Tina I've been watching you for years now and your journey hasn't been without its difficulties and you have been very honest showing all of your ups and downs but you never gave up. Today watching this vlog shows how far you've come over the years training with Cam and Alex has payed of you and Banksy are awesome you both know and trust each other so much now but Tina you have really come into your own now. Your riding is incredible your up there with the best of them and it shows because riding that beautiful chestnut mare wasn't easy and you made her look easy a top class scopey mare with that much power you new nothing about you wouldn't have known it was your first time on board I am in awe of uou and so immensely proud the chestnut mare is for you she liked you pls never doubt your abilities again I ❤❤❤ you and Banksy and let's not forget little dinks can't wait for part 2 ❤
@@sparkle.-buggg3610 thank you so much!! you’re right she sure wasn’t easy, but it was very rewarding, especially towards the end of the week ~ just wish I could bring her home xx
So so awesome Tina!!!!! Your confidence is like night and day from your last Global Tour adventure. You have put so much hard work into your training over the past year and I have said it before but I’ll say it again , you are such a fantastic student /rider your ability to follow the guidance and training given and execute it is brilliant!!!! Proud of you and all your hard work . I’m a fan of the Grey mare😉
Aaawww thank you Elizabeth I feel so so grateful to have been given so many incredible opportunities over the last few years and am really enjoying embracing and learning from them xx
Tina, Such an amazing opportunity for you, enjoy every moment,the horses are amazing. It helps you so much as a rider to ride different horses they all teach you something new. Embrace the experience. I might look into it for next year.x
Loved his sense of humour talking about his "moving out". Horses looked happy. LOVE thunder storms. We don't get enough here any more. Also a mare person. They seem to have a heck of a lot of character and if you jell, they really try for you. A bit sensitive at times but that's OK.
Tina , looking forwards to the future yes you’re so ready for something with more blood / quality . Banks is so wonderful and your partnership solid . With your love of the horse and natural ability in the saddle along with your trainers , well the futures looking truly exciting ❤
I liked this video so much. You’re such a talented rider and you ride all the horses very very good. I know it’s not easy and they are powerful. To get to ride this kind of horses are a blessing. You’re love for the animals is so beautiful. I can see the compassion and kindness. Bless your heart 🌸
Hi Tina, really great to see the first instalment of the 'Germany ' tour. Its such a wonderful experience for you and for us all to watch and learn , you are 💯 more confident & comfortable in your riding since last year. I really like Mata Hari you bonded really well and looked so natural together, though we've only seen one part so I imagine there's more lovely ponios to come!!. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Take care. ❤🐴👍❤️
@@LifeontheLeftRein One life. Trust me, nobody knows what is around the corner or what tomorrow will bring any of us. So remember, grasp every opportunity today and never put off until tomorrow because shit happens. You have so much talent Tina, can you just imagine the fun you will have teaching that mare all that she would need to know to be successful at eventing? She has an amazing work ethic and a big brain. Wonderful opportunities.
I know you loved Belle and you looked great on her but I thought you and Mata Hari were such a good team too. She was my favorite of the three to watch you ride. 😊
Wow you done amazing and your confidence was growing every time you ride and also travelling alone. I loved all three but my favourite was the grey. Can't wait for part two
Looks like you had such an amazing time and wonderful learning experience. Looking forward to seeing part 2! Such beautiful horses, and I can imagine picking one would have been difficult. I do think Belle was a great choice for you; you seemed to develop a connection quite quickly and she is just gorgeous
OMG Mata Hari all the way stunning. all the horses are beautiful but you just clicked with Mata Hari she an event horse for sure, single changes down the long side in the first session lol. Wow great opportunity to ride such stunning horses and you look awesome up there too. I vote Mata Hari, and banksy get another girlfriend lol excited for part two, get better soon Tina. Banksy had fun with Auntie Emily too.
Hearing that I don’t have to be competiting to possibly, apply for this, is kind of reassuring. I’ve lost a pile ton of confidence after shattering my right leg in four places at my tibial plateau (truthfully the worst thing I could have done, I’ve been told) and I tend to ride bitless. But, I want to get my confidence back. It’s not fun even being on the ground and wanting to burst into tears because my CPTSD makes me flashback to what happened.
Doesn’t everyone clean up so well in their fancy threads 🤩 0:04 and 2:05 👏👏👏 2:55 how far you’ve come and ohh the places you will go 😁 6:44 need your thunder buddies 🐾 love seeing you behind multiple sets of ears. Well ridden Tina 🍀
You are looking awesome and your skills have improved enormously in the time since last year's tour! I loved all three of the horses you rode in this vlog and I expect that you have fallen in love with the chestnut mare Belle. She seems to "fit' into your current barn. I would give the grey mare a real run as well for I loved the way she moved even more than Belle. That being said you are the only one that matters when thinking about adding another to your yard. So hope you decide to add a young one to your yard!
This looked amazing hope you had the best time. I know I have said this before but I think you should get a mare ❤ hopefully that gorgeous grey mare changed your mind ❤
I could understand the audio in this vlog with no problem! Just saying. :D These horses all look INCREDIBLE. It would be so cool if one of them goes on to have a big career and you can say you rode them at the start!
Hey mate excellent riding, seriously you were great!!!! I thought all 3 looked great but I did like the grey but cant remember the name. Much love and get better x
They all look amazing. And content / type is perfect. You can hear the comments fine. No need to change the format for the next one. Cant wait to see more of Belle. What did she do when you first got on her?
She was good as gold in walk and trot but erupted a little in the canter and it wasn’t with taking any risks so Steffen took the sting out of her tail abit 😉 she was only fresh nothing nasty but being a young horse I didn’t want to do anything detrimental to her training xx
I would have choosen Mata Hari if it was me...... But boy is Belle talented!!! ❤❤ Binksy, Banksy and Belle...... Maybe she would fit you just perfect?? ❤❤ Really love how your confidence have grown the last year!!! Loved watcing this!!! ❤❤
Ah that special chestnut mare! Man you rode her beautifully - I told you Banksy needs a friend. I did like the grey though! Nice to hear a kiwi accent!!
@@LifeontheLeftRein As a mare owner myself and someone who has always had a preference for mares I can assure you for us it's not a negative term. Mares just sometimes get a negative label because they like to express their opinions more "freely" however I believe it's a positive and a superpower Esp if we listen to them when they have the ability to be so open with us in return.
Oh Tina. I love Banksy and you two are an amazing team. But Belle is wonderful with so much potential. As much as you sometimes struggle with confidence but you enjoy the challenge of a spicy horse. Look at Banksy and his enthusiasm! You thrive on it! Not everyone can ride a horse who has the spirit both Banksy and Belle share. If I could, I would buy her for you! I can’t even afford my own horse so don’t get your hopes up! Still, like I said earlier, you are a great champion for the Global Amateur Tour and you and Belle just seem to fit! Save your $$ and maybe something can be worked out!! There are plenty of lovely horses out there and I’m sure when the time comes you will find the perfect horse for you but it is bittersweet that Belle and you had such a remarkable partnership in such a short time. I’m quite sure she doesn’t ride like that for everyone that sits on her back! Don’t stress, my love, it all works out in the end and whoever you find to keep you moving forward in your eventing journey, will give you as much love as Banks! Yes, Banks will always be the King but having a sweet and spicy Princess would be lovely too
Belle is stunning , beautiful beautiful beautiful , however... white legs , english mud ,, sadly will never end well ,,, The Grey Mare you would have a lot of fun on and you look good on the bigger horse xxx
Really well done Tina, very brave getting on these green horses. I do wonder why you don't wear a body protector while riding green, spooky horses? I broke my shoulder jumping a very small jump on a green horse, when he spun around and threw me off.
Riding all these horses gives you the chance to know what you want in your next horse. Edited to add that I should have watched more of the video before commenting. Oops 😬
I can see that British lower-level event riders need more dressage work. The horse changed leads because you changed your seat and leg. You need to learn to keep the horse straight without changing your seat and legs. German riders all learn dressage first. The seat is so important. Nice opportunity for you.
@@caciliawhy5195 I agree!! I knew that too hence very grateful to be able to train with the these trainers on their beautiful horses and have these fabulous opportunities ☺️
You underestimate how 'marish' Banksy is. I mean I hate that word but he kinda seems to have that element of sensitivity and unpredictability. Note I am fully a 'mare' person I don't consider having a 'mare' personality bad.
She was lovely and very well trained, but didn’t excite me as much as Bell did. That said I didn’t really properly jump Mata Hari, maybe if I had she would have xx
The special one is the 3rd one the lovely chestnut mare absolutely stunning,would pick for you,don't know why had a good vibe when watching you ride her,you appeared more excited,she moved lovely,for you in the future,enjoyed vlog and look forward to the next one,what a great opportunity to ride any of those horses,we still love banksy who is looking fantastic 😊good luck

Not gonna lie, I felt a little too high up on her not used to such long legs!!!!!🤣
Really well done Tina, very brave getting on these green horses. I do wonder why you don't wear a body protector while riding green, spooky horses? I broke my shoulder jumping a very small jump on a green horse, when he spun around and threw me off.
I generally would have an last year wore my Champion sculpt back protector, was cross at myself for forgetting it xx
HELLO hi, the grey that you said you liked , you are good that lesson with Cam befor, ypu went
sugested that.
@@candidapratt3675 he’s not for sale 😉
My money is on Belle the chestnut mare. I’m a mare lover anyway and especially a chestnut mare.
She’s lovely!!🧡
52:20 🧡🧡🧡 to all of team hairy legs support crew 🐾 🐈 and dinks
😂😂
I Loved Belle, she was gorgeous and smart! also partial to redheads lol. Banksy is still the best though :)
True!!! Hehe x
Riding all these horses gives you the chance to know what you want in your next horse.
Edited to add that I should have watched more of the video before commenting. Oops 😬
Yep 100% that, such a great opportunity and one I have thoroughly enjoyed embracing xx
Mata Hari for sure
Lovely isn’t she!!
I think it was the chestnut of course I don’t remember the name mayor
🧡🔔🐴
Ps I want to do the global tour!!!!
It’s so good!! Can highly recommend it xx
How do I apply? I’m serious interested. What are the requirements?
I can see that British lower-level event riders need more dressage work. The horse changed leads because you changed your seat and leg. You need to learn to keep the horse straight without changing your seat and legs. German riders all learn dressage first. The seat is so important. Nice opportunity for you.
@@caciliawhy5195 I agree!! I knew that too hence very grateful to be able to train with the these trainers on their beautiful horses and have these fabulous opportunities ☺️
The grey mare.
Do you have contact details Tina for the tour as I’d love to see if it’s for me.thanks
Yes should all be linked in the description box the website and Lucy’s Instagram xx
👍
Perhaps you should dip into your rainy day savings and treat yourself to something extra special 😉😉
Very tempted to!! But we do sadly have a few other things that are taking priority atm xx
You underestimate how 'marish' Banksy is. I mean I hate that word but he kinda seems to have that element of sensitivity and unpredictability. Note I am fully a 'mare' person I don't consider having a 'mare' personality bad.
Yes very true actually
Mata Hari easily. I think she challenged you to be better without pushing you too far.
Yea fair comments!! She was lovely but I felt more in my element on Bell 🧡
Mata Hari suited you more than Belle
She was lovely and very well trained, but didn’t excite me as much as Bell did. That said I didn’t really properly jump Mata Hari, maybe if I had she would have xx
I put off watching your instagram reels to watch this❤ only saw a tiny bit of the special chestnut mare🫶🏻🩷
