You all prolly dont give a damn but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
I feel so fortunate to have watched this journey. His success is proof that he had a very talented trainer! The fact that you didn't push him too hard but let him grow into jumping says so much about your training ability. Congratulations, Holly. Merry Christmas to you and your family🎄🎀❤
I definitley agree that some young horses need time to show their talent, my Mare only really started to look and jump well at the end of last year (when she was 6) and during this year! It's soooo worth giving them time to mature 😊
So true! I had a rescue mare that I didn’t start until she was almost 5 because she was neglected before I got her. It took a long time to earn her trust, but once I got it she was an absolute dream!
There's a 6 month old home bred foal at my work, her mum is a 4* eventer and i expect she'll follow the same path! So excited to watch her transformation like Khal's
She’s just like any other horse to him. Horses don’t really remember their dam or foals once they’re weaned, even if he wasn’t rejected it would be the same ☺️
@@HollyLenahanSJ that's actually not true. You can find mares in regular herds that will have 3 or 4 of her babies with her. They do remember. Esp if the mare and foal are kept on the same farm Altho a rejection prob doesn't.
You have trained him so well. Maybe he wasn't so carefull when he was younger because he was just worried about the surroundings. And with time he is building muscles. Bravo for your résultats 👏👏
It honestly amazes me that just over the span of a couple years a horse can change practice really does. I am so happy I got to experience watching this horses journey and I hope he gets even better
He grew fast and was unconfident in his big body. Then you giving him those breaks just to be a horse he found his body and got comfortable and became a confident horse :) youve done amazing with hin
He’s such a beautiful, confident, well adjusted boy !! You have done such an incredible job with him and he clearly loves and trusts you very much ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
when I was in ridingschool there was this horse named Lukas, he mainly walked on the beginner lessons because he wasn so calm. But I loved riding him so I often picked him for both dressage and jumping. Sure, I had to work a lot harder since he was dulled from the beginner lessons but once you got him to wake up it was awesom, he gave 210% once he realiced he got to work properly. Now, the best things was when we got to 50cm+ jumps, he loved that :D Certain horses just seems to like the challanges :D
Really interesting to see him grow and strengthen - especially that huge change between 4 and 5 years, he's a credit to your hard work, and you did everything at a lovely pace. I love youngsters!
What a transformation! The hard work you put in has most definitely paid off!! You can really see in all your videos how much he loves you and your dad. He just seems to light up when he's around you guys and that's beautiful to see x
Thank you for this vlog Holly, no wonder your face light's up when you talk about Khal, what a stunning foal then he turned into a horse that is beautiful to look at and has the nature to match, I just adore watching things about him thanks again. 💖
I LOVE HIM! Young horses are so rewarding! I actually prefer it when they don't flash as much. You can see after his first longer break (think it was when he came in, in june this year) he had matured so much. He has come so far are you should be so proud. Taking it all so slowly will pay off in the future xx
You honestly should be so proud of yourself! He's turned into a really fantastic horse. I love how he wasn't impressive in the beginning, even though he had an amazing mind. I feel like people get so caught up in how they free jump and over jump when they are young that they forget that a good horse is still in there and just needs time to develop. He honestly looks like a completely different horse in that last 1.20 round. Not many people can say they've bred, broke, and ridden their own horse up the heights. Can't wait to see where you guys go after this!!
Thank you for being proud of Khal and loving him so much! He does his best for you. I hope the two of you have a very successful, healthy, happy and long time together.
Thank you for a wonderful video! I enjoyed every minute of it! You have done a fantastic job, with this young "man". He is a very special horse with a solid steady personality. Really looking forward to following you both, in your endeavours! You are a excellent horsewoman! Thank you, again!!
Lovely story and wonderful video! I'm so pleased to have found an equestrian on YT who knows what she's doing! Great to watch how you handled his upbringing and really put a sincere effort into training him- it definitely paid off. You're a good team.
I love that you waited until he was three to back him. Way too many people rush that and ride them way too young, and too hard. Great partnership with a beautiful boy!
May i just say. When u said ‘useless’, i felt kinda disappointed because if a horse can’t jump very well, it does not mean there useless. And horses aren’t all just for jumping.
foresync well she owns jumping horses, she rides jumping horses and she bred a jumping horse, if the horse doesn’t jump very well so he is useless for her because she wanted one for jump, it doesn’t mean she doesn’t love him, it means that is useless for the sport and is disappointed because she expected a good jumping horse 🙄
foresync and she said he was her first bred horse, so you need to understand that he was like a very expected big project, obviously she is gonna be disappointed if the horse jumps bad
foresync anyways she didn't give up and keep training him and now he is a really good horse, i guess if she didn’t love him she could have sold him for a very cheap price the past year
I cried watching that . I've followed you and cal from the start !! Well done both of you , gives me lots of hope for my young pony who has tried to kill me many times but they can change and mature so quickly xxxxxxxxxxx
Wonderful, I swear homebreds are the best. they grow up knowing you and eventually once you back and ride them they honestly don't care, just taking it in their stride it's just one of those weird things we do haha, well done! x
This video is a pleasure, and the experience of your beautiful heart horse is such a pleasure to witness. He is very lucky to have such kind & generous human support.
What a fantastic little video! It really feels like he grew into his being as from this September forward: he looks confident, knows how to use his body and place his legs. It's lovely! You really did a fantastic job in bringing him up and training him. Very well done, Holly! I'm so excited to see where the future will bring you and Khal!
Really enjoyed these clips Holly I’m new to your vlog, you are such a beautiful rider lovely hands and seat your so very calm with all your horses and your Dad’s so funny and loving thanks for sharing and the best of luck with the shows.😎❤️😎
I haven't been able to watch any of your videos for ages as I've just not had time, but it's so lovely to see him looking so strong and mature both mentally and physically in the final clips of this. One thing that's obvious about him from the video is that he's always been a horse with an incredible rhythm and balance on the flat and over fences, which can be a difficult thing to find in young horses. I've often found that the more balanced a baby is, the less it over-jumps under saddle, as they find it easier to absorb the fence into the natural rhythm of their canter stride and are thus more confident and relaxed about the entire affair. Unbalanced babies either wobble over everything or put in a massive ping to clear it. Not true in all cases of course, but certainly a decent number. Plus he'll probably last and stay sound for longer as he's not expending unnecessary energy or putting undue strain on his body. All in all he looks utterly incredible right now and he's a real credit to the work that you've done with him. Definitely an exciting future ahead!
When I went to Indiana to visit my sister and her baby who is almost 2 now and when I went to my grandma's house she had a barn near her house and I rode a pony named Sparky he was so sweet toward me and was so smooth and I will be taking riding lessons after covid 19 maybe I am so excited ☺☺
My horse is nearly six and he still cant jump like your horse could when he was four. When we bought my horse we also thought he was going to make a fantastic jumper, but no i'm stuck with a stubborn horse who panics when i don't tell him what to do. Yet i love him and would give the world for this bloody pony
Khal is so good!! He's come so far and I'm really excited to see how Dali does too! Have you ever taken Khal to do xc? And if you haven't had the chance to yet, do you think he would enjoy it?
Aw, khal grew up as such a successful, beautiful boy , especially because his mother rejected him. Goes to show your circumstances can’t stop you and there’s always a way through
Holly. You have done a brilliant job producing Khal in a very correct way. If you check the record books. There are very few winners of the Loose Jumping competitions or the Young Horse Championships that actually go on to the very top. By giving Khal the time to mature and learn self balance and self carrige you have let him develop his jump. Just out of of curiosity have you ever schooled xcountry or ridden a dressage test on him.?

How does Khal act now with Fiona as she is his real mother? This video is so cute love u and all ur horses

V Wyldrose when he liked his own comment
My horse remembers all her babies even as grown horses n the horses remember their mother but of course they have never been seperated.
You have trained him so well. Maybe he wasn't so carefull when he was younger because he was just worried about the surroundings. And with time he is building muscles. Bravo for your résultats 👏👏

By the looks of it, you have such a soft rein and hand on his mouth. I admire that.
Cant wait to see how dali comes on, seeing as Khal is so amazing
He’s such a beautiful, confident, well adjusted boy !! You have done such an incredible job with him and he clearly loves and trusts you very much ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Hes so adorable when he was a Foal!! And hes So Handsome now!!🤗🤗🐎❤🥳
Loved seeing the progress. He's beautiful and you did a great job taking time to let him mature.

Just shows how brilliant your care of him has brought him on x

Thank you for sharing this video and letting us watch them grow up with you. It’s amazing to see his transformation. Incredibly beautiful.
What a transformation! The hard work you put in has most definitely paid off!! You can really see in all your videos how much he loves you and your dad. He just seems to light up when he's around you guys and that's beautiful to see x
Awh thank you ❤️
Love how calm and kind you are to him, even when he spooks. He looks so happy and confident with you as a rider
The 16 dislikes are the people who are jealous because they can't have Khal.
Isabel Anna yeah
Or the ones that don't like how she said they thought he was 'useless' at first because he didn't jump as high as expected-?
Alison McCain s a r c a s m e x i s t s
Because he was useless at jumping starting out. I’m sure you’re absolutely useless at skills when you first start, that’s just how it is.
It's so lovely that you've had him all along and brought him up!
Thank you for this vlog Holly, no wonder your face light's up when you talk about Khal, what a stunning foal then he turned into a horse that is beautiful to look at and has the nature to match, I just adore watching things about him thanks again. 💖
Once he found his confidence he came on leaps and bounds !!! Well done Holly 👍🏼👍🏼

Thank you for being proud of Khal and loving him so much! He does his best for you. I hope the two of you have a very successful, healthy, happy and long time together.
Thank you for the Khal retrospective, Holly! He was such an adorable foal and so bratty/buggy with Jack. Wow, this fall, Khal just blossomed.
He's beautiful! I wonder if he found it easier to jump the higher fences as he's not having to look down at them so much?
Amazing job Holly! He’s come so far, you are absolutely allowed to be super proud of him and you!! ❤️🐴🥇
Really lovely to see his journey so far 💙 what an amazing boy and all credit due to you Holly 💕
This is so cute! You trained him and he came out to be incredible.
This was so wholesome 😭❤️

Cool video & nice to see that you were so patient with him! Nice job, he looks great!
Aww he’s such a cool dude you did so well with him 🤩🤪
Wonderful to see the progress you've made. What a beautiful horse.
Very inspiring. I think that time is often a key for many horses....Fantastic!

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOREVERRRR
Khal has grown into such a handsome guy. You must be very proud 😊

You two are amazing 💖. Khal is going to go so so far !
Jack: "ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK DOWN THERE! NOT THAT KIND OF MILK >:("
You're so brilliant with young horses!!
Thank you! As are you! ☺️
So his breeding is what-he is the cutest baby I haver ever seen in my life!!!!!!!And I love Fiona but his breeding is ? thanks Deb

I can't believe he's only 5 in the last clips. He does so well omg
He’s such a beautiful horse x
lovely transformation👌😱❤
Khal is so good!! He's come so far and I'm really excited to see how Dali does too! Have you ever taken Khal to do xc? And if you haven't had the chance to yet, do you think he would enjoy it?
Thank you! And no I don’t have any plans to. He doesn’t even like walking into puddles so I doubt he’d enjoy cross country 😂
How adorable Holly!! Well done both of you!! Xo
He is beautiful and I actually made me Tear up
Time flies. Great transformation! :)
lovely journey❤️lucky girl u are!!!
Love this, well done. He’s beautiful 😍

I loved this video!!!! Stellar job with your boy!
Love this video!
Lovely! 💕 He's gorgeous! 💕
I have a feeling that this buff boi is gonna be a champion jumper.
he is a champion !!!
Holly.
You have done a brilliant job producing Khal in a very correct way.

Just out of of curiosity have you ever schooled xcountry or ridden a dressage test on him.?
Actually my last video was our first attempt at a dressage test! But I don’t have any plans to do cross country with him ☺️
His face marking are the same as my pony I used to have :*( , Khal a good looking horse :)
