Apollo is such a very good boy. So smart too. My Moriesian mare that I sold this fall was as smart and kind as he is. She could learn something just a few tries. Friesians are fantastic animals. His coat is the shiniest winter hair coat I have ever seen on a horse. It shows what great care your animals get from you.
Apollo is agile and thank goodness for it! That would have been a pile up if he hadn't been able to avoid it. He is a smart boy and that beautiful neck is more than good looks - it's power. Over all, he is a joy to watch. Not just beautiful but a real character. Thanks to you both for the video. I loved to catch a bit of Ikey too ... he was such a cutie.
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. Amazing how Apollo, such a huge horse, can stop on a sixpence! Amazing clever beautiful boy. Miss little Ikey , lovely flashback
Well done in avoiding the collision. Apollo is just an amazing gentleman in every way 🖤 So lovely to see precious Ike 💝 Merry Christmas Tara and Rens 🧡
Apollo is always watching out for Mom!!❤️🐎👏 He's one in a million for sure, sure footed and keeping up with the others. ❤️🐎❤️ He loves the games and praise for sure. Very, very smart. ❤️❤️🐎🐴🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏
🐴🐴💙...That was a nice "Flashback" got to see 👀 Ike!🐶😍♥️...Apollo... what can I say...A Magnificent Black Beauty!🐴👑♥️ Loved this! Thank you ever so much for sharing and All take care!🙏🥰🤗🤗🐶🖤...🐴🐴💙 🎄Merry Christmas🎄
I just want to comment, and this in no way is implying anything other than the fact that it is a comment, I have ridden hundreds if not thousands of trail miles in the United States, both by myself, in small and large groups. We never ever gallop in groups at those speeds, let alone where you have to make a 90 degree turn on slick ground. The fact that you Brits do this routinely is a testament to both your horses' ability to be controlled in a large group and your riding skill. Of course a lot of times we are riding on a lot more technically challenging ground, single track and two track narrow trails on hills, in rocks, dealing with other obstacles such as elevation changes. Sometimes we have to ride on ground that has been undermined by rodent activity and we have to deal with holes and ruts. Sometimes we ride in a forest or trees and we are dodging trees at speed (trot) and trying to keep our knees intact. At any rate, I am always impressed when you have a bloody good gallop.❤❤
Great brakes Apollo. Lovely to see the old video of football Spanish steps and Ikey and of course lifting his hay in the bag 🐎🐎🐎 Merry Christmas Tara and Rens 🎄🎄🎄⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh that was scary. Good thing both you and Apollo were paying attention and were able to avoid a collision. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you Tara & Rens
Merry Christmas Tara & Rens, 🎄 for when you wake up today 😘 👋 Hope you both, have an enjoyable day with your family and friends ❤ Sent to you with Love, Melinda 💜🤎 ~
The lady on the grey could have caused a much worse incident by going across like that. Lucky Apollo is a ray of sunshine in a group and indeed anytime! I loved Apollo's beautiful ballet steps, he's so careful to lift his leg as high as it will possibly go! Such a precious boy. And loved seeing Ikie's fluffy little roll too. A magical look back...💜💜💜🌷🌷🎄🎄🎀🎀
I noticed that horses with ribbons were at the front 😡. I love Apollo, so clever. Tonight he is telling Bella to put an empty sack out side her stable door in the hope she has been good enough for Santa to leave carrots and treats, Bella said to Apollo but why is your sack bigger than mine, makes sense said Apollo as I am bigger, better behaved and herd leader, Bella thought about this then said bigger doesn’t mean better and Santa will take into account that I have learnt the most and had to put up with you bossing me about, Apollo said we will see who gets what, Bella sniffed but what if we get nothing, ahh said Apollo that means that Rens has had one too many and forgotten he is playing Santa this year, Bella’s ears went back do you mean all year you have been telling me to be good so Santa comes with treats and he is not real, Apollo realised he had dropped a blooper, shuffled his feet and flicked his tail, well Santa is real it’s another name for Rens, Bella cross at being tricked charged at Apollo who had to use his fifth leg to spin and gallop out the way, Bella chased and was now strong fit and fast, in the end Apollo skidded to halt puffing and saying o my heart and o my legs I shall go lame, Bella said I will forgive you if you agree that I am now faster than you, yes yes gasped Apollo you are faster and fitter than me (for now he thought). He thought that he will have to go on a diet and do a lot more exercise in the field if he is to keep Bella.

Strength beauty and brains. Clever boy Apollo. Hope you get loads of carrots for Christmas dinner.
I've seen others here refer to Frisians as the "dogs" of the horse world, but I didn't realize that he's a retriever. Apollo is such a very good boy.

Apollo is so amazing and could probably get a job in a circus.
😂 I think he would like that he does like to show his skills
Hunts have hunt masters who set a pace. That could’ve been a disaster.Apollo is very tolerant of hoomans
❄🎄🕊🎅❄
Nice spanish walk
I think I saw a mature horse can lift like over a 100 pounds/45 kg easily...
