It was an interesting and helpful lesson. Edited to add that I suggest not worrying about falling off until you actually fall off. You are riding on a surface and wearing a body protector. Will never ride as well as you but have ridden a lot of difficult horses and worrying about what might happen, simply makes riding harder than it needs to be.
I think you can tell a good trainer on their views on the basics, such as Nick saying he has to march on and keep to the gait and the speed you ask without having to ask all the time, but should be doing the same until you ask for something else. I love that. Great video!
Great vlog! Really appreciated the way Nick explained the theory behind what he looks for, and why you were doing each exercise. Also liked Scott's interviewing to draw out some of the big-picture thoughts!
Nicks'instruction was very informative and technical, he breaks things down and explains them so well. Eroll looked really good, all round a great vlog Ashley.
I did exactly what you were doing with my mare when she was younger. I kept schooling her, forgetting we’d done the work and time to advance. That two years “coming of age” seemed to be so fast. I thought she was still that crazy 4 yr old I’d started. The day I started seeing her as the horse she’d become we went from strength to strength. Erol is going to be incredible. Those knees are wonderful! I can see him taking you the whole way!
What a fab instructor. I really enjoyed listening to him and learnt so much. You and Erol are looking great. He is maturing into a gorgeous boy!! I remember watching the vlog when you went out and picked him!!!! 😁
I love the music change when you went from the straight to a skinny 😅 we knew something fun was about to happen. Another fab vlog! Well done Ash and Erol 🎉❤
Nice lesson for Erol and for you! 👍👍Thanks sent along to Nick for being in the vlog. Post when you can, you do have an overfull plate with the house re-do, two yards, lessons to take and to give and well geez gal, busy busy! See ya next time!😁
What a brilliant instructor the way he explains everything is great and it makes perfect sense. Errol did so well, yes he still has some growing to do, and now is the time to invest in his learning, and oh my what a fab jump he has, such scope and he’s eager to please and is so honest in his attitude to his work, what a fab duo of Ashley and Errol I’m so look forward to watching you both progress, exciting times are coming! 🐴 xx
Lovely vlog. Well done Ashley. Erol is growing into a super horse. I can already invisualise him a little taller and with a strong top line. I love the way Nick encourages you to work on your own. Pushes you forwards and then tweaks you in the things you can't see you're doing and helps you focus vin moving forwards. Great to watch. Thank you.
This was all around super fun and informative! Erol is such a little super star, he is so smart and once he matures physically a bit more - wow! The two of you will be such a great team! Also Nick is wonderful. But the secret star was Bella who is just beyond adorable.
What a great partnership you will have with Erol, having been with him since he was just a lad! He seems to like the jumping & learns fast. And he has a sweet disposition, tho I think he was getting a bit worried--"Where's my hay, did you forget my hay?"
What an amazing vlog. What a lovely horse. His eye is so much more grown up looking; so proud of himself. Nick is so knowledgeable!! What a treat to hear all he had to say to you. And every detail of the exercises were just brilliant (flags, guiding poles, related distance to the bigger over, etc). Thank you so much for sharing this!! Please please please include us on all the training sessions!!🌟🔥🌟
So cool to see errol progress, really lovely to watch those videos! I once got the chance to train with Nick when he was in the Netherlands and loved the lesson, was a really good confidence builder. He is great!
That was a very good jumping lesson Ashley Nick is really good at explaining things and Erol is going to be someone to watch in the future he’s a lovely young horse. Scott made me giggle with the Decent comment lol.great clip guys good luck with the season.tfs😎🏇😎
Loved this video. Great riding Ash, you could see your bond with Erol and confidence going from strength to strength as lesson progressed. Great questions from Scott, so informative listening to Nick, what a great mentor/instructor! Thank you for videoing this lesson - really enjoyed it 😊
Would love to see and hear more from Nick. Ashley this was a great lesson for you both and informative for all. I love watching you bring up a young horse. He is very nice, best of luck this season! Hope your mom is doing well Ash!!❤❤❤
Wow what an awesome instructor. Just a few minutes in and already I've taken away something useful. To consider the horse you have now, not the way they once were. V helpful for my spooky boy!
Loved seeing you and Erol progress through the lesson and I learnt so much from watching Nick teach, brilliant vlog and good luck as always to you guys
Ever since you got Erol I knew I’d love him when Zeb retires he’ll definitely but the top horse Erol is a superstar I’d love to see more lessons with nick i’ve learnt a lot from this video I can’t wait to see your guys journey❤
Erol is a lovely young horse! You’ve done such a good job so far! I love listening to your instructor here too! It’s an incredibly educational video with him speaking! Love it ❤️
My goodness, you need to take some enormous credit for producing such a laid-back and capable boy, Ashley!! When I heard you say Nicks name, tears immediately sprung to my eyes because of the dreadful trauma he went through and when he then said who Errol was by my heart actually swelled in pride ( I know we don't know each other but I've followed you for couple of years now) in the work and professional ongoing of Errol, and now I can hear the hope in Nicks voice that you make his pride and joys protedgy succeed in his career as an event horse, and I jolly well know you are more than capable to do that! You are such a beautiful rider, and confidence is all about the trust you have in your horse, and we know they are not robots, but although Errol is green, he is also a blank sheet, ready to absorb all your ability, knowledge and bravery. You have this in buckets, and now add a pinch of confidence, and you and Errol are going to be all you are dreaming and wanting from him.... come on, gal, excitement waits around the corner for you both ❤
He's quite an immature looking 4/5 year old. Is he warmblood ? Moves nice when he gets going. You must be quiet small because I thought Zeb was taller than he is....not sure of this ones height either ! This trainer is fantastic.... So right with the marching walk but forward and low into the bridle. I had a really weak toplined horse and it changed her !
I loved listening to this instructor. He was so good at explaining what he was looking for. So informative.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊

How's the house coming along? Time for another house redo please!
This Sunday 👍😊
He's quite an immature looking 4/5 year old. Is he warmblood ? Moves nice when he gets going.
You must be quiet small because I thought Zeb was taller than he is....not sure of this ones height either !
This trainer is fantastic....
So right with the marching walk but forward and low into the bridle. I had a really weak toplined horse and it changed her !
He is young looking-he’s a British Sports Horse 👍😊
What is Erol's breeding ? Lok forward to seeing him getting out to a few ode
British Sportshorse 😊😊
@@ashleyharrisoneventing should have asked the question better. Is he out of Party Trick after the comment Nick made in the video?
Yes he is out of party trick ☺️
Coming 5 ?!? Feed and work and experiences.
😊😊
First
