- I may have been keeping this a little quiet over the past couple of months because I wanted time to make sure it was going to work out and to get to know him.
But I think it's now time to share the newbie of our herd, Roo! I was offered Roo on loan at the start of 2021 but I was at my maximum capacity and budget of three horses so I had to say no. He went to someone else and I was sad to have passed up the opportunity. The very week I put Azid up for sale, Roo was sent back from his new home as it wasn't working out, and I was offered him again, knowing I now had space for a new horse. Fate, some might say.
I obviously did not know at the time that Qantas was going to injure himself and thought of Roo as a project pony, a lovely opportunity to have a horse on loan, and see how far we got without too much pressure. Despite now having to step up and be my main focus I'm still going to try and have a no pressure, no expectations attitude, as it's actually really nice to be so chilled.
Roo is 8 years old and owned by a rider who was my absolute idol as a Junior, Liz, making this an even more surreal and dreamy experience. Liz and her mare Falaina were like my pin- ups, if there were signed posters of them, I would have had it on my wall. Falaina was an incredible mare and to have the opportunity to ride one of her sons is such an honour.
He's done a few graded rides but not yet done a 40km or above. So that's my aim for this year, get his first 40km Novice qualification under his belt, spend the winter strengthening him up and improving his fitness and just enjoy next year and see where it takes us.
I can't thank Liz enough for trusting him with me and I hope that we'll have lots of fun adventures together.
Thanks for watching,
Beth
He's got such a short little neck. What a stud! He looks like a great boy, very exciting! I'm so excited for you!
Oh he is LOVELY! Congratulations on the opportunity. I wish you both happy trails and many wonderful adventures together!!
Beth! So much fun to have a new face and a new ride! What a love! ~Holly
Ya gotta love Tissy's attitude. New horse what new horse I will get into this video one or another. Shoves butt in Beth's face for scratches.
He is a stunner! What a lovely head and neck on him.
Welcome, Roo! Can’t wait to see your journey together ❤️ also loved Tizzy’s butt juuust sneaking back in for a scratch in the very last shot 😂
He is absolutely gorgeous Beth!! I hope you have a wondeful adventurous journey filled with loads of memories! Waiting for more fun videos!!
He’s so cute!!
Congratulations!! He's gorgeous, and seems to have a lovely personality. Things really did work out perfectly! I like your training approach, I follow a similar philosophy... if we don't communicate well on the ground, we won't under saddle either. Good luck on the pleasure ride, can't wait to hear how it goes!
Congratulations! You and him certainly seem to fit together super well and as others have said, he is stunning. Love the chunkier look. :)
I like the way you ride your horse and you are a good ride re and I like the you work your horse
Yay this is so exciting!
He is so cut can’t wait to watch your adventures together he could be Tizzy’s little brother
Nothing like a new pony! I would love to get another one, but my guy has let me know I am the only mom for him and him only. Rue is so gorgeous and best of luck keeping him clean. 😉😀
Omg he's absolutely gorgeous 😍 So happy for you! Can't wait to see your adventures together x
He's lovely, looking forward to seeing you both as you progress in your journey together :)
So thrilled for you Beth. And what a gorgeous boy!
Want a beautiful horse I like him your horse and I like the way you ride your horse
So pleased for you, he looks lovely, seems to be quite a calm sensible boy. Looking forward to your journey with him 👍💕
What a gorgeous boy xx ❤️❤️ a couple of questions if you don't mind, first, I take it he's a purebred Arab, is he a gelding? Finally, how many hands is he? He looks about 15 hands based on Tizzy xx can't wait to see you getting on with him XXX thanks Beth xx keep up the good work xx
He's purebred but super chunky. Yes he's a gelding and about 14.2hh x
what about his pedigree, it would’ve been nice mentioning it. Great content as usual
Don't worry it was left out on purpose 😜 were doing a video about my horses in more detail in a few weeks 👍 x
Such a pretty boy! Is he barefoot?
He came without shoes as he'd had time off but he's normally shod x
What is his show name and he is beautiful
Thank you 😊 his show name is Est Kanga
Hi beth! Im curious why you always choose boys (except tizzy ofc)
Statistically there are more geldings doing well at the higher levels but it's just a fluke really. I love mares but the right one just hasn't come up x
@@bethendurance i thought so too i have a gelding too but i think as long as they are calm with the mares i dont think you must geld them x
Lovely 🥰 is he barefoot and if so could you do a video on that please and thanks 😊
He came barefoot as he'd had time off. I always have mine barefoot for about 3 months of the year when they're on holiday too x
5:49 One of these things is not like the other.... :P
😝

@@bethendurance thank you I will use THAT kind of bite and see how it work on my horse thank you Nannette
