    I started bawling at your first clip where you get up and say it’s all your fault. I had a horrible riding accident on a hack in a National park last year and took me 3 months to get back on and 9 months to canter again. Admire you so much for getting on Dee. Be kind to yourself and give yourself time to emotionally recover. I’m so glad you and Jam are ok ❤

    Don't worry too much about Jammy - she will have been far less bothered by the fall than you were. My mare slipped over sideways just walking down a road last year and I worried it would affect us both mentally but (she clearly didn't care!) it hasn't and if anything I think we trust each other more now. Big shout out to Hannah this weekend who was in her element as super groom and lovely to see what a super supportive friendship you guys have.

    @egeegee7146 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That jump of the start box! Awesome. If you fall get back in the saddle. It takes a while to rebuild your psyche but you will. It wasn’t just a bad stride it was a normal pat in but the going was so bad she skidded in and lost the room to get her knees up. So stop beating yourself up. She had flattened over the steeple chase, the going was knee deep and it was a skid in that up tipped you both. It happens. Get back on and ride for the love of it. Oh and concussion does weird stuff to your head. All sorts of emotions for no apparent reason. Down time. Concussion healing takes quite still meditation. You got this.

    Crying right with you on this one. There is nothing like a bad fall for both rider and horse to make you question every thing you are doing. It's the protective instinct and love that you have for your horses, that makes it hardest to get over it. Not to mention that bit of biological reaction to not wanting to repeat it. You are so so brave to get back on and finish the event and not letting it road block you. Prayers for you and Jam Bam 🙏

I cried when you both fell, when you went into showjumping, when you were crying after showjumping & when you were in the car going home. I love your honesty & rawness Meg & how much you care for your mares. I can totally understand why you felt scared going into showjumping after that fall, you are amazing. Congratulations on qualifying both for Badminton. I hope you managed to have a warm bath & chill afterwards. Lovely to see Hannah again & both of you; I love your vibe together.

Very inspired by you. Also Han, what a star, running round helping both you and Tina at various points. I thought it was lovely she got to trot up DD and wonder if she might be able to trot one up at Badders too. It seemed a lovely touch born out of necessity. What gorgeous friends you have around you. So lovely to see snippets of everyone. I hope you continue to heal gently both emotionally and physically. Sending best wishes. X

The way Han stepped up as supergroom and Pete just being that little supportive voice in the debrief just shows how much your people love you. Congratulations on a stellar SJ round with DD and being brave enough to do it afraid. Speaks volumes to your dedication and love for your horses and passion for the sport. You'll get that confidence back in no time and Jammy will be right there with you, she obviously adores you and knows how much you believe in her.

    You truely are the most inspirational rider, I was absolutely crying my heart out for you and Jam! It must of been the hardest thing to do to show all your fans your fall but that is what makes you the most genuine rider, it gives people the confidence to see you can get back on board and recover from such a bad fall and still go out and absolutely smash it! Well done again sending our best wishes to the beautiful Jam Jam! Well Done Meg and Dee xx

    Dee was truly magical in her showjumping Meg. She was balanced and smooth the whole way round. Stunning!! Poor Jammy. So pleased you are both okay, a huge round of applause for her start box jump. x

    Wow Megan! Hats off to you! To come out and Showjump the day after that terrifying fall! I broke my neck a few years ago in a fall and had to have 7 weeks off- the first time I jumped after that it felt like an out of body experience and I completely sympathise with the flash back feeling! Your round was beautiful and you’d have never known you’d gone through what you had! Huge well done and congratulations on qualifying them both for Badminton! Xxx

    Well at least Jammy wasn't put off jumping by her fall! Boing! Well done Meg for being so brave - so good to have Pippa Funnel to guide you through some confidence building jumping next! Poor Hobbit and Pete must have been so worried - nasty old fall but everyone is OK and that's what's important.

    I have to say seeing both you and T so happy and then you two entering for your victory lap together made me cry! I badly lost my confidence with jumping a while ago it just takes to face your fears, but you know that, watching you jump after a fall like that was so inspiring and it’s always good to go back to the basics and it’s amazing to see you’re not afraid to show that. Bring on Badders!! ❤

    So incredibly proud of you and D! You did so well!
    Fell on the first jump 8 years ago when I rode my first cross. Refused to do anything jumping related afterwards. I was mortified. It's actually because of your many polework videos that I picked it back up again in 2020. You have been such an inspiration over the years and now even more so. Being able to finish so strong with D. You are such a power woman! You and Jam will rise high above this, I'm very sure. Don't be too hard on yourself. The steeplechase, the ground were all things to consider, the both of you did everything in your power to make it.
    On another note: that startbox jump though, she didn't even bat an eye at it. She just pinged it. Big loud cheers of appreciation to all the incredible people around you! Certainly a dream team brimming with love and support!
    Edit: FEI described it best with Megendary. Be kind to yourself! Glad the both of you are okay. Mad respect

    Hi Meg. Your fall didn’t look as bad from this angle, I could keep one eye open. But the official saying I’m not catching that one, before Jam flew over the start box, made me smile. Well done for super groom Han for trotting up DD for you and for all her support. I was tearing up myself watching you ride again I loved how much support you got from everyone. The reunion wasn’t as sweet as I’d thought it would be. Here’s to Badders 2023 for you and Tina xxx

    True grit, pulling on your big girl pants and riding a superb round with DeeDee. ⭐️ Well done, great example to all riders. What a fantastic team you have with you every step of the way. Han was amazing. Can’t wait to see you and Tina at Badminton, with Emily joining you both in 2024

    I absolutely LOVE the fact you and Tina finished next to each other. After everything you went through, the happiness and cameraderie you pair showed just brings a tear to my eye.. Blooming amazing and inspirational work Meg!! I haven't jumped since my own nasty fall back in March, and definitely have anxiety about doing do again.

  • @gracehorses5125
    @gracehorses5125 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love how you and Deedee nailed the showjumping. It just shows you how much your horse looks after you even when you're at a low. Don't give up, Meg! We all make silly mistakes sometimes and that's just how our sport is. You can't have a rainbow without a little rain!

  • @syzygyfarm

    So so sorry for your fall, but it is wonderful to see that you and Jammy are okay. Also, sweet Dee was such a rockstar and just carried you around so sweetly in the show jumping. Try not to be too hard on yourself. Falls happen. Our sport is dangerous, but Jammy obviously still loves you and you two will continue to do great things.

    Meg you are a legend. It is easy to scrutinize a ride afterwards and entirely different when in the moment. As Jam masterfully demonstrates and the old adage goes there is no better manager of a horse’s feet than the horse. Additionally, you are and your horses are amazing athletes.

    As a fan, I'm so proud of you getting back up and jumping with Dee. I could see how hard it was on you, but you did it and both your beautiful girls are going to Badminton which is a sign of the hard work you've put into training. I'm so excited to see what the future holds for you all. Thank you for sharing this wonderful sport with us.

  • @fleetskipper1810
    @fleetskipper1810 ปีที่แล้ว

    The volunteer at the start, upon seeing Jam galloping toward him: “I’m not stopping that one!” I’m sure he expected her to see rail and swerve through the opening to the right-most horses would. But she was unfazed.
    Meg, I will echo what everyone else has said: you are a brave person to ride Dee on Sunday. Never doubt your own bravery again. By definition, people without fear cannot be brave.
    Hann , Hobbit, Pete, everyone who supported you-you have drawn such good people to you. They wouldn’t be there if you were not who you are.
    Jammy showing her concern for you-well, there are no words. Only a stone could remain unmoved by that.😭

    Well another of your videos where I cried along with you. So glad you are both ok, and hats off to you for having the courage and determination to jump Dee even though you were both nervous and scared. Both ponies did you proud, as did your crew, what a support group you have. I am also sure that Jam will trust you, your ponies love you. Don't loose heart now, you are talented and just need to have faith in yourself and your ponies. So pleased you qualified for Badminton.

    👏This is why you should always wear helmets, regardless of how safe a horse is there is always the chance of hurting yourself. An amazing job getting up, admitting your fault and taking responsibility 👏 you're an inspiration to alot of young riders.
