PIGS! It is a frightening experience if you're on a bolting horse, make no mistake about that.

- Things happen very quickly with horses. Poppy did stand on Sues leg but it could have been so much worse. Kirsty showed what good balance she had when Neo suddenly bolted.

Apollo staying in place is a great testament to your training, his confidence in you, his good sense. He proves once again he's the ideal horse.
I think Tara´s consistant and sustainable habit, method of coaching, and TALKING a lot to those beautiful creatures makes a difference.
He is a Champ!
I would've never known that was a bellow to call the horse back. Clearly an amateur, but horse lover. I would've interpreted it as stress. Wow. Beautifully done.

Apollo calling the other horse back 😭 if that’s not just the sweetest thing ❤️
So proud of our Apollo for keeping his head about him! He tried getting Poppy back and helped calm the situation. He did all he could do. Tara, you also helped by remaining calm and was empathetic to the girls. Apollo is our black diamond! 🖤🐴🥰
Pearl, gem, ruby, and gold, too.
This happened to me today got scared and I was in a herd of horses
Just watching that makes me relive some old memories with my greenbroke track thoroughbred 😂….
I don’t know how you guys rode in that kind of wind and lived through it!!
My god , what a saint Apollo was, herd instinct tells a horse to follow them bolting horses, the fact he didnt do that was great, but on top of that he was so good as he waited for the horses to come back. So many horses would of played up, but all he done was call for them a couple of times . He really was amazing i was so impressed with Apollo .
Fair play to the girls for getting back on and carrying on especially the injured one. This is something that can happen to anyone and a bolting horse is extremely frightening and hard to stay on . Im glad your all safe and sound but a big shout out for Apollo he was such a amazingly good boy to wait so calmly like he did and well done to you too Tara you was so calm yourself you handled it so well . Well done all xx
🥕💖Saint Apollo has just earned his sainthood.💖🐴🥕🥰
Well said
When he was really saying " WAIT FOR ME...."
Hats off to that young girl who came off - she did brilliantly walking and getting back on injured ,👍 Xx
Best thing you can do is get back on. I was thrown once and sprained my back. But I got right back on. If I hadn't fear would have taken over.
I'm so glad the young girl riding Neria wasn't hut worse with broken bones. That looked like a wild ride turning and taking off.I hope she is well.
Yeah, I did that and got bucked off immediately, and hurt bad enough that I couldn't get back on for months. It's not always the answer.
I see a lot of factors in this event that add up to wrecks waiting to happen. Fresh horses in wind... Good times...lol!
I was just about to comment the same thing. 🥰 that's how it's done. If you fall off you get right back on. 🥰 I have fallen off horses many times but it never scared me to ever ride again.
@@kilodeltawhisky1504 That is true. It depends on how you fall and it could go anyway. And that's so true! For some reason horses don't like to be ridden in wind, if they don't have a saddle or rider on they are A-OK in wind.
A bolting horse threw me into a house, then landed on the ground and splintered the bone above my left elbow and cracked my wrist in two places. Over 16 years since the accident and I still have fear/anxiety around horses. Bless Apollo for being such a good boy and keeping you safe ❤️
@@a.m.2066 That's terrifying and I can definitely understand giving up riding after that. I was extremely fortunate that I ended up with just the broken arm and wrist, I wasn't wearing a helmet and I was in sneakers - it could have gone much worse than it did.
I haven't had great experiences with Arabians - the ones I've met are spooky and nippy, would not want to ride one.
@@a.m.2066 my condolences
God bless you and your family
A pure testament to never take life for granted
I beg you to please try and ride again. I had a terrible accident where a horse bolted, and I fell and hit my head. I was hospitalized with a concussion and permanently straightened vertebrae in my neck. I was so terrified to canter for so long. For three years I didn’t go near another horse. Now, I’m a horse wrangler, and ride full on gallops with glee. It’s exhilarating, and I know it’s risky, but to get back on and get over that mental hurdle is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done
@@a.m.2066
There are plenty of well-behaved and well-trained Arabians of sound mind. We used to have one and once you showed him you were boss and that you were not going to be intimidated he was such a joy to ride. Excellent gaits and so willing to move with the slightest touch he would respond. A sporty flea-bitten Arabian that was just like driving a Corvette. So much fun! However, with his street-smarts you could definitely not put a beginner on him because he would take full advantage of the situation.
@@a.m.2066
That comparison is like apples to lemons. Pitbulls are bred to attack.
More specifically when the Bulls were taken to Market. They are Fighters. Arabians are bred for heat and endurance along with wonderful gaits for a delightful ride.
A horse will never step on another animal or human being unless they are loco in the head.
Apollo is so sensible and trusts you very much, as you said it had to be so hard for him to be obedient and stand when every equine instinct was yelling 'RUN NOW'. glad all are well, and sue only has a few bruises to show off....
Dont forget that she had painful bits in his mouth. The other girl run bitless
@@Debbielein8190 Lmao a bolting horse won't care about the bit. If they're scared enough to run off they won't stop because the bit is harsh
@@Debbielein8190 a horse ignores all bits when it bolts, you can pull as hard as you like, you ain't stopping a bolting horse. It will stop when it feels the danger is gone.
Again Apollo showing what a trustworthy fellow he is by going against his instinct and listening to you. Actually calling the other horses back made me smile. He's a peach and does you proud.
😁
Your friend who fell off is extremely lucky that she didn't get trampled - being on a bolting horse is scary on it's own, but almost getting trampled by both your own horse plus another horse coming charging past must be absolutely terrifying 😬. It was good of your other friend (Kirsty I think you said her name was?) to warn you as her horse was coming past, too - that cheeky charger from a couple months back could learn a thing or two from that.
Well done Apollo. Not many horses would have stayed so calm. 😁
@@barbaracollins5605 It’s good that the people stayed calm, but Apollo did amazing.
You horse ladies are a hardy breed, I take my hat off to you, you didn’t just get back on to get home which is very courageous in itself, you then chose to carry on with the ride, now that’s hardcore 🥰
Apollo was outstanding during the emergency, pleased yes, but I’d say downright as proud as can be of his beautiful behaviour, if he really decided to go I doubt there would have been anything you could do except hang on. But once again he proved how special and trustworthy he is.
🥰
@@Tara101 Do you know what spooked the other horses?
@@thewildbruce5612 pigs
This gives me a whole new appreciation on the power of these animals. It is amazing, really, that us puny humans can control a thousand pounds of horse as well as we do.
It has to be a working relationship that you build with proper steps. You really cannot control an animal so large and Powerful. Nor should you want to. I would like to mention that it's a fact, riding a horse is more dangerous than riding a motorcycle. Oh yes! Because a horse has a mind of their own.
@@pricklykitty939
This. I’ve only ridden a few times and one horse and I were just connected. Same wave length. I don’t even have training on how to “make” horses do what I want. Was just us vibing hard. Hope that horse is doing well. I was a kid and it was a freshly “broken” male horse on a group ride.
As soon as We where let off the leash we bolted.
@@magnarcreed3801
Crazy. Crazy dangerous. I'm glad you're okay. I'm glad the horse is okay. As I mentioned in my first post above... statistically riding a horse is more dangerous then riding a motorcycle. Again, because a horse has a mind of its own. This was the very first video that I came across on TH-cam that I watched and of course enjoyed. Now I'm addicted to Tara and all her beautiful horses! Peace out
@@pricklykitty939
It was all good. Besides as you said, they have a kind of their own. Horsey happened to share the same mind I did.
I just haven’t see the horse since then, not that I think anything bad happened it’s just been I we a decade.
Such a brilliant horse. He was gonna bolt but he stayed calm and kept calling out for his friends. Also bravo for the girl that manage to stay in the Saddle on the horse and congrats on that girl for getting up while injured
Yes 🙌
Apollo’s self control was impressive and then he topped it with adorable calls to the horse to calm down.
No one çan fully comprehend how lightening quick horses can be until they experience a bolt. Well done Sue for getting back on & well done Apollo for listening to you Tara!
👍
Definitely 🩵 My first fall happend because of a bolt..He did a sudden halt half way down the arena no clue why because he wasn’t near my instructor or other horses but I went flying over his head then landed with the back of my head first! Took over half a year to get over my fear and I’m still scared of the horse it happened on with more bad experiences on him. This happened at the riding school I go to, Happened 2022 December and then took me up to September before this fear was gone. He’s sold now and am living life on the mares and haven’t ridden a stallion or gelding in ages!
I'm glad you noticed that about Apollo holding his ground... You are so right! He could have spooked as well and away he went. But that shows how well you have assured him that you will take care of him in a time of crisis. Well done to you both!!!👏👏👏 I glad it had a happy ending, and all is well. Minus a few bruises of course. ❤️❤️❤️🥕🏇🥕👍
I think Tara´s consistant and sustainable habit, method of coaching, and TALKING a lot to those beautiful creatures makes a difference.
@@amalia3843 I agree. Talking to them is a fantastic communication. The calming sound of her and Ren's voices create a connection even if their horses don't understand all of the words. Yes, they understand many, but mostly the calm assurances they need to build trust. I talk to all of my critters all of the time. People think I'm nuts. That's their problem. So talk to yours!
@@bloomingaccents He was telling them it's OK, whatever their problem is, it'll be all right, stop and it'll get sorted out.
Yeah, you can see he really wants to go but he always wants to listen to his owner. Such a good boy to listen and not act on his instinct. Mine can do that in the field when the naughty buggar next door sneaks through the fence and starts running around his field, I tell him to not react and he stays with me while I try to get the other horse out.
Unfortunately my boy is very sensitive to sound being an Arab he's quite a worrier also, so if I don't have his soundproof ears on,he's probably going to spook if he hears something outside the arena (we have an indoor)
I am so proud of all three girls for wearing their helmets and keeping their heads safe. And I'm very proud of the girl for getting back on that horse and showing who is boss and not letting it get away with knocking that girl off and her not getting back on that shows the horse that she's not afraid and she will ride her again. Good job Sue
Please always wear a helmet!! Head injury= brain damage.
When I first owned my ex-racehorse I was walking on the ground next to him. He swung his head around & hit the side of my head. I woke up on the ground, him pushing me to get up. No helmet. That & other head injuries eventually gave me Dementia.
Apollo was so good - he would have fetched the horse back himself if he could...🐎.You were very calming Tara and took the lead in managing the situation...well done. Hope the rider doesn't have any long term damage.
Apollo is always the star...hope he gets his second ride on the beach.
He will have lots to tell Bella and Farouk when you get home.🤗🤗
Bella and Farouk will be wishing they'd been able to go too! Maybe they'll get their own special trips?
Quite interesting that Apollo was calling to Poppy! He was so calm and steady! Good boy! Again glad she wasn't badly hurt!
Just goes to show that we female equestrians are as tough as nails. Hats off to you ladies in handling the situation.
I fell off a bolting horse and had injuries, I have never been able to get on again. I thank God Sue is alright and that Apollo was an amazing boy!
tfs
My first fall at 10 years old was off a horse in a riding ring - i was cantering, went through the first bend, and he just kicked it into overdrive and bolted through the next turn (kind of like a barrel racing sprint) - being a young rider, I just froze up and pulled back on the reins then bounced out of my stirrups and went over sideways, landed flat on my back and whacked my head - knocked the wind out of me, and I was pretty traumatized/upset, but otherwise uninjured thanks to the helmet! I was a baby and didnt get back on, didnt help that my Mom watched it happen and came running to get me in the car and go home. BUT I did come back the next week, and the next, and ended up riding + competing locally for another 7 years! Took a long break from riding to do college/work stuff but I miss riding!
This video gave me an insight into how Yvonne at Freisan Horses may have fallen off her horse a few weeks ago, she's been critically hurt but recovering thankfully. Happy to see this young girl was able to get up after her fall.
Yes, in fact I thought the same thing as I saw this video first and later learned about Yvonne. I was shocked as I thought it was her in the video as I had no sound and didn't see the video again until just now. I am so hoping Yvonne will recover and have a good life with her family and Stal G. She has been an inspiration to so many people around the world.
@@valeriemason7469 I'm astonished as to how fast shes recovering.
How sweet Apollo calling for the return of the horse. I fell off a horse and it leaves you shaken for awhile. But, you have to get back on the horse.
I've lost a stirrup on a bolting horse and you have to really hold on for dear life. Kudos to your friend for not just holding on but getting that stirrup back, that's hard to do! The horse I was on was running along a fence and of course the stirrup I lost was that side. Really thought he was gonna scrape me off on that fence! To this day I can't believe I didn't come off.
tfs
Well I must say that woman was a real trouper to get back on after a nasty fall like that and to continue on with the ride. That goes for the other woman as well whose horse ran off with her. Apollo was as steady as always.
👍
I agree with you, although you can’t not get back on, otherwise the horse will learn that if it does that enough it can get the rider off and get out of working
If you don't get back on, it can be something you build up more anxiety about.
Or at least that's the horseriding theory. I know I hated being bundled back onto a horse who had just thrown me and would have appreciated some time to compose myself first.
Apollo is a good solid horse. He wanted to run after the other two, but listened to his rider. And good on your friend for getting back on.
👍
My mare was steady for me as something similar happened. We had a great bond.
This is my greatest fear. Tara, you and Apollo did so well keeping calm and just being so supportive and kind in a stressful situation. I hope the other riders don't lose too much confidence.
So pleased that both ladies are OK...very frightening. I had a similar fall from a horse when I was 13, suffering a severe concussion with a hospital stay. It happens in an instant. 😬 Apollo was a star 🌟 🥰🐴

I fell off a bolting horse at age 12, the knee has not healed after 60 years. Horses are so powerful!!
Glade everyone is okay & safe. Abt 13, I broke my tailbone due to a bolting horse. Hit on the saddle horn.
I had a bolting horse too twice in a week when I was 11. Luckily I didn't fall neither of those times but the first I thought it was my end as we were approaching a crossroads with loads of trucks passing by. Luckily my mates stopped the horse. I kept on riding until I was 18 nevertheless and fell many other times but I was extremely fortunate to never get a single injury. Now that I'm quite older I'm much more aware of everything that can go wrong. Past year I began riding again after 14 years of not being on top of a horse. Fell off twice again unscathed. I love horses to my core but can't help but think every time I do I'm buying an unfortunate lottery at some point I'm meant to win 😅
I was on a bolting horse,my horse and I fell also. I had a closed head injury,and broke my tail bone. She was very very lucky! Apollo as always was a perfect gentleman! Thank you for this video,people can now see what may happen when a horse bolts.❤️
Must have been awful! Sorry that happened. Hope you've recovered.
My pony bolted in the school but when she got to the corner she went into canter but she bucked and I came off. I think the saddle slipped
I was riding and a car with no muffler drove by, honked, and the guys screamed out at us. My horse bolted, I fell, broke six ribs, fractured my skull, punctured a lung, lacerated a kidney, broke my collar bone. Insurance companies rate horseback riding as more dangerous than riding a motorcycle. But I continued riding until I was in my 70s and other health problems made me stop. Horses are magnificent.
I hope you don't have any issues from that. Stay well.
@@margarete6888 I hope you're doing Ok!
It's so good that Kirsty was able to catch Poppy and that they were both able to get back on so you could all ride back.
I’ve watched it again. It demonstrates how quickly a calm situation can change and so how vital it is to wear a hat. The relationship you nurture with all your horses came into its own. Apollo badly wanted to join in but stayed with you and was a rock. But that was very frightening for all of you and great respect to the girl who came off.
Hello Lyn how are you doing today
Apollo really is a champ...seems to have an understanding of the seriousness of the event and really trying to call the horses back!👍🤠🐎
🐴👍
Poor Sue and poor Poppy as well. Being frightened is not good in the moment. It’s hard hard to stay calm after that. Poor baby. Great job getting back on her!! Kudo Sue!!! So glad Sue is okay, prayerfully so. Bless. It’s hard to get back in the saddle after being thrown. Bless. ❤️🐴
I was on a bolting horse on a mountain trail in Colorado once, when I was about 7... No laughing matter, indeed... I held onto the mane for dear life + you never forget that mad dash + feeling! Happy to see all were ok in this video.🌞
Same here for me! 🤦♀️We were at Estes Park, Colorado on Vacation and I was on a huge horse during a family trail ride and I wasn’t but 10yrs or less but he decided to turn around and bolt back home to the barn stables and I FREAKED OUT SCREAMING all the way back! Luckily I stayed on and went for a wild ride but I still am jumpy thinking about riding horses and haven’t had the chance in 35+years but I’d still try to ride I think.
me too, but a mountain trail in costa rica
My boy has no mane to hold, he's rubbed it all out 🤣 I just had to clamp with my knees and pull as hard as I could to get him back today, I was not coming off today. I have dodgy knees so it hurts to hold them off the saddle as you're meant to so he's used to me gripping with them,though my grip suddenly turned into a vice and he knew he was in trouble 🤣 luckily we were inside and it was only about 15-20m he bolted but he's an Arab, so it was a very fast 15-20m 🤣
Apollo really holds a heart of gold he wanted to help that girl who fell badly from a horse, Apollo looks like he talks and says how are you? everything ok, I hope you are fine the girl
Very well done all you ladies. 1. it was a good job it was a sandy road, 2. not a main road in sight, 3. Apollo behaved beautifully trying to gather his herd back together.
Very brave of the girls to get back on and continue......it was certainly the right thing to do. Obviously the horses weren't injured so continuing would help to calm them down.
A very anxious video, but also shows what can happen even to the best of riders.
Apollo was calling the wayward horse. Such a good boy. So glad that Sue was okay except for some bruises. She is a brave girl.
Apollo reacted superbly! A credit to you Tara, your training and your love and positive reinforcement. ❤️ 🐎
It is so amazing that she is walking it off and praising Apollo. Tough young lady and ever so loving of the animals. I do hope she heals up just fine and is none the worse for wear. Apollo was such a good boy to stay under control and I'm glad you didn't suffer any injury. He is such a good boy.
😊
So relieved to see Kirsty was ok AND with the 2 horses! I noticed Kirsty's good posture when her horse took off, she was very upright, probably her experience.. You can see both Kirsty and Sue's experience in the sitn. I think you probably had a calming effect too, Tara, as well as supportive. And Apollo, who ws absolutely a star, just not enuf superlatives for that dearest boy!! Love him!! ❤😍❤🐎❤❤❤
So glad everyone is ok…horses can get scared at the silliest things!
She was lucky that she wasn’t badly injured. So glad that Apollo kept his cool as hard as it was when the other two bolted past him.
🏇🍃🏇🍃Came across this video of the bolting horses with riders. After watching it, I was relieved to hear that all work out with the horses and riders being safe. ❤️ Love seeing how Apollo kept it together while at the same time trying to be vocal to the other horses. I can only imagine what he was saying to the other (2) horses. Congratulations to Tara for having Apollo who stayed calm through the whole time of regathering the horses & riders back together again. 🥰 Good job Apollo. 🤗🌿🏇🦋 Lynn 💜🇺🇸 ❤️💚❤️💚
I just have to say-I’ve always enjoyed this channel. My interest in Friesians drew me in, then I was so impressed with Tara’s training abilities and horsewoman expertise.
But this whole saga of Apollo traveling to the Jubilee event, and everything we’ve seen on this trip has me totally hooked. Tara and Rens-thanks for such amazing content.
I know you were so proud of Apollo for not being apart of that herd, which I am sure was tempting to him, obviously he has learned he felt safer with u. Good job Tara for being such a great partner to Apollo❤❤, that he felt less desire to be apart of that herd and more to stay with you. ❤❤
Well done, Apollo 👏🏻, keeping your wits about you while all that bolting energy took hold of Poppy and Nero. Frightening indeed, even for the most seasoned equestrians as the three of you are. Sue’s no doubt very sore and “colorful” but hopefully no permanent damage….😩🤞🏻🙏🏻🫤❤️
Good on both ladies!!! Did all female riders proud! We are all going to hit the dirt at some time….. the true equestrian saddles back up👍
Just wonderful. All's well that ends well.
Apollo called and called..communicating to the other two. He's wide awake!
Gorgeous Horse!! RESPECT.
👍
Apollo you sweet boy!!! Thank goodness her ankle didn't break! I didn't realize that Neo was gone wild too at first. That woman held on for dear life!!!
So glad Sue didn’t break anything and that -Elsa? Didn’t come off Nero/Neo on her bolt and even managed to catch and pony poppy back to you two.
Equally impressed with your calm demeanor which assisted in Apollo checkin in and looking to you for direction . Exactly what you have worked toward as a side goal while training. It all pays off Tara. Again though your calm and confident manner have really helped shape and cement this as a herd leader of sorts. The key things I feel let’s a horse rider/ owner relationship down is m:
lack of time spent with them in general. Stable temperament and calmness of mind breath and heart as well as a respectful trust.. By default, this means that no matter what is unfolding you don’t get emotional therefore you don’t yell scream and get animated, further solidifying the trust that they should look to you for the next move and go with it. Kudos to to you Tara.
Well done Apollo, such a credit to you Tara. Sometimes all the effort & discipline in the world can't stop a bolting horse. These beautiful animals are strong, stronger than us & when determined to take off, they completely overpower any sense of communication & our desperate attempts to hold them back. Its especially hard when in a group & they follow each others will to bolt off with that herd mentality, some say try to turn them in a circular motion but its easier said than done, especially when on a bridle track with windy surroundings. I've had a few bolt offs & it can be pretty scary. Apollo was amazing ❤
Apollo was a good boy. So glad the girls were alright. I had a flash back to your video when Farouk took off that summers day. So glad you were on arable land and not near a road. I bet there were a lot of bruises poor thing💐💐💐
Hello Brenda how are you doing today
You can never be quite as prepared at that moment as you hope you will be.
Those darn Saber-tooth bushes and wind-blown booger beasts are always waiting around the next bend in the trail.
Good Job Team Apollo and a pint for everyone !
Toss a blanket over the pony, check for booboos and grab the icepacks for the rider. I'm sure those bruises will be obvious in a few hours.
👍👍👍
it was the pigs. pigs and horses don't get on. horses think pigs are satan!
I came off a horse during a thunderstorm when I was 12. Unfortunately, I ended up in the hospital for a couple of days with a concussion. And the knee jerk reaction was to keep me away from horses. Tara, your calm, soothing voice with such positive instruction would have, I am certain, brought me back to horses much sooner! I love watching your videos; they are so relaxing! And I am learning so much! Please keep it up! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
tfs😊
Apollo is a very good trail horse. I love how he’s calling the other horse. So adorable. That poor gal took quite a hit.
Massive respect to everyone!! Lady who got back on....best thing to do but by golly, it takes courage after an incident like that!! A true horse woman!! Well done!!
👍❤️
Wow, first of all what absolutely stunning horses! Second that is very impressive that Apollo was able to stay so calm and not get caught up running off with his friends. Lovely that all the riders were able to stay calm, get things sorted, and go back about their ride! I'm glad Sue was basically ok. Thanks for sharing!
I greatly admire their courage and strength to push through the experience. A fall like that is quite a shock to your body! I hope the rest and healing process afterwards went well. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a trooper Sue is bruised&stood on and back on she gets& carrys on 👏👏👏She must of been in pain the following day and for a few more after.Bless Poppy for carrying 😀 on aswell 😍Beautiful Girl
Somethings amiss in many comments. Of course Appollo did extremely well. But here was a learning experience. Was it the horse's bit, the pigs or the rider starting to gallop? Why did the 2nd horse take off dangerously past calm Apollo as well? We praise Tara's horses all the time. Well deserved. For observers, what happened here with these advanced riders? What an experience to learn a. little from.
I think Poppy was spooked by the pigs. Nero bolted, maybe a combination of pigs and Poppy running off
Love to see you guys wearing helmets. Too many equestrians don’t! This is why it’s important! You never know what can happen, never get too comfortable.
Apollo did so well! I’m so glad both of those girls and their horses are okay. Love from Canada. ❤️
😊
Well done to you and Apollo not getting caught up into that bolting malarkey! It’s happens so easy and often out of the blue and your never quite ready for it. Apollo did excellent not to react to that.
Such a good relationship you have with Apollo. Our newest horse passed the other horse bolted test
at the end of the trail ride.. Not anticipated or planned but I decided on the spot that he was platinum.
So glad no one got hurt. Keep up the good work Tara.
Well done to all of you here! 👏👏👏
I admire how you all kept calm when it's so easy to panic about so many things in that situation!
Brilliantly handled! ❤️
Apollo was like “get the f*ck back here guys” 😂❤
🤣
My first time in this site, Apollo was absolutely amazing to remain after two horses bolted past him! Unbelievable! And then he called them back! A brilliant horse that really proved his trust in u! Then for the injured lady to remount immediately after that terrifying experience was true courage. Both of them were very brave to ride back after that , thank u for sharing this with us!
What a good boy you are Apollo❤ It is so hard for them to NOT to run off & follow …so lovely he stayed & trusted you ❤
Such a wonderful partnership you both have ❤
Your lovely training is shown here again Tara ❤
It’s a good video to for non riders to see to show how suddenly horses will bolt without any discernible or predictable reason.
Well done Apollo for staying calm and calling back the others.
👍😁
I'm so glad it turned out well. It's nice she'll be able to see what happened in your video. I love the way Apollo was so involved with calling the horses. He's a wonderful herd leader. If I still rode it wouldn't be without a bit. I'm thinking now. There was one time a horse I was on just bolted and I couldn't stop him. He bit the bit they said. He eventually stopped when we came near a highway. It was scary. This video brought that day back to me. 🐴🐴🐴❤️
Again, so proud of Apollo as you are Tara! Good boy❣️
What a relief. Apollo was a true stalwart with a lovely calm rider. You were all great people working as a team in your time of need. Super Video. Thanks so much. 🐎🐎🐎❣❣❣
🐴♥️
I thought the second rider went after the first horse to catch it. No? Both had bolted? That's awful! Makes Apollo even more of a champ for not bolting after them. WOW! He's such a Good Boy! And you're such a good teacher!
both bolted
Thank you Tara for your training & loving of Apollo. He wanted to go too but listened & trusted you.
Apollo is so smart.
Gotta loved the girl limping along ....saying IM FINE 🐴🤣
You three are so inspiring to us! Well done.
pollo did very well. He knew what happened and restrained.
Husband was with friends at a riding stable. He mounted his horse and the horse reared up and took off at a gallop down a path with trees on either side and some small branches overhead. He just hung on for dear life. The horse turned and galloped back to the stables with nothing hurt but my husband's pride. He doesn't ever forget that, though.

No one mentions what might have spooked poppy n the first place. I guess Fresians r not quite so mellow and calm after all. I know thry have tiny brains, and instintive reactions, but horses who grow up n the wild, (as n mustangs) might flinch, shy sideways ,or leap forward , r less likely to fullon bolt, i discovered, once , u gain their trust. Also it seemed safer to me to put poppy in the middle between the 2 calmer horses, after she bolted, instead of in the lead! Glad all horses and people, safe!
Good job keeping your horse under control and maintaining your role as his leader. You must be an excellent trainer horse trainer.
Beautiful horses and a beautiful countryside.
Wow. Sue is one tough cookie. I was as unsettled watching her get back on as I was watching her fall off. It takes grit to do that. I was thirteen the first time I had a horse bolt. I got right back in the saddle, just not on that horse! 😉

Apollo was such a good boy in this horrible situation!!
Hope that lady was ok…I felt her pain. I was thrown from my bolting horse 20 ago, and broke my back! So..stay safe ladies! Love Apollo doing his bit to call the others back bless him…look at his ears forward all the time ,listening. Lovely horses! Envious here! Love from me! Xxx
Thank you! Love from us as well. xxx
Great Job Apollo & Tara. Keeping him in control & calm with all that was amazing!! Glad Sue was ok & got right back on to finsih the ride. Get team work with all of you!!
It always cracks me up when in the movies when a character that is not experienced can just hold on to a horse that bolts and is in a full run.lol it’s not easy it takes skill. Horses can be so unpredictable it’s very rare when you can let your guard down. She fell really well luckily it was on soft dirt and grass. Glad she is ok and gets back on! Be safe and take care from Texas.

Many years ago, when I was still a very unexperienced rider, my horse got spooked by a guy coming around the corner. And my horse bolted in a full run, while kicking its back legs in the air. But I did not fall off the horse. I held on, until the horse calmed down. And my teacher, who was seeing the whole thing was very impressed that I stayed on the horse, as it looked like a rodeo. And I've seen another of my class mates ride another horse, that took off as well. But she fell off the horse. Fortunately she wasn't injured.
@@thewildbruce5612 I always found it interesting that the first thing every single one of my trainers did was insure that their students knew how to do an emergency dismount, landing on their feet unhurt with reins still in hand, and I did the same for the years I was training riders. I've always been surprised at how few current riders know how to do it.
So pleased everyone is safe. Well done everyone 😀💕
OMG! Du hast so einen wundervollen Freund unter deinem Po! Sooooo zuverlässig, so unterstützend und das gelingt nur, wenn die Verbindung Mensch/Pferd so vertrauensvoll eng ist!!! Well done! Very, very well done!
Amazing...well done ladies👍👍.... especially Apollo.
Thank you 🙌
And once again Apollo demonstrates his immaculate manners. Such a good lad. 🖤
I had a quarter horse when I was about 12 years old. She bolted on me many times. In fact, she bolted one time when the neighbor boy who worked for the barn to take care of the horses went to get her in the field. He only had a halter (first mistake), she took off so fast and ran into a tree and knocked herself out for a bit. Out of all the horses I've ever ridden in my life she was the absolute worst for disposition.

Lol! The horse ran into a tree and knocked herself out? 🤣🤣🤣 I'm sorry for laughing, but that's just so hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣 🌳🐎💨
Prayers for the riders healing. You and Apollo were great, so helpful....
As beautiful as they are and the rich history we have with them, I'm glad I'm an iron horseman now.
Sue was lucky & I'm sure she was pretty sure everywhere for awhile. Apollo did well like the good boy he is. Thank you Tara for the videos. I'd love to buy the sash & ribbon but too poor for that. That's ok. I have the videos of Apollo looking handsome with them 😃❤❤
You're never poor because you have a heart of gold shown by your nonrecognition of Apollo's good boy behavior and your appreciation of Tara's videos.
@@conniewojahn6445 Awww...thank you.
Hi Tara loved watching the video Thank you for putting it on here Your horses are gorgeous and a credit to you Renes and Steve also your dog is aswell Looking forward to watching more of your videos Hope every one is well and OK From Sue with love xxx
Such invested trust Apollo had in his rider listening to voice commands waiting to be instructed on what to do next in a sudden unexpected crisis. I loved how he remained focused and alert processing what the other two horses were doing and how they were acting and instead of joining in he clicked on critical thinking skills and used it to call back the other horse that took off without rider. The very fact he pitched in to call back the horses that bolted off - that is just outstanding and remarkable of him and he did all that while still keeping a sturdy ear and eye on his rider ready for commands. what a one of a kind gem you have there! i will admit i am a bit jealous lol

I'm so glad she's okay. I was riding my friend's stallion bareback on a dirt road on her property when I got the bright idea to see how fast he could go. One little nudge from me and he was GONE!!! He took me through an apple orchard and I had to lean sideways, clinging for dear life to his mane with only one leg hitched over his lower neck. It was one of the most terrifyingly, yet exhilarating experiences I've ever had. Only after I got him to stop and slithered off, did the reality sink in of how close I came to a broken neck.

well done Apollo and well done to the other ladies, get right back on
Glad no serious injury , just bruising and shock.
That does look like a beautiful road to run on! You ladies are indeed both lucky and privileged to enjoy such magnificent steeds! Wish I could take a spin on Apollo!
Apollo was a great boy. He showed his respect and trust in you as a confident leader for him.
