I love how Lucinda is always there for you at Badminton. You truly blossom under her coaching.
Totally agree , 💯
Me too 👍 …
So much respect.
Seeing her there from the full on breakdown to today... and her telling Meg 'you did it', ALL THE TEARS!
Did Rich just rocket up the leaderboard of my favorite featured coaches? How sweet of him to make himself so helpful on the jumping phases!
It made me giggle - he made the girls look about 12.2hh! But so lovely of him.
I thought the same thing! how epic is rich jumping in helping cool down ponies and just being so supportive. That’s an amazing coach.
Loved seeing Rich there with everyone-what an AMAZING team of family, friends and coaches you have, Meg. So very happy for you and your wonderful Connemara ponies :)
the two girls meeting at the end “YOU WHERE HERE THE WHOLE TIME?!”. congratulations Meg it made me teary eyed..super proud of you and the girls!
Yeah I loved the girls meeting at the end too ~ especially Jammy! Christine xx
Love you meg and your amazing ponies!
Just wanted to say a massive congrats and well done on the results.
But I also wanted to say a massive thank you for being so transparent these last few months, from someone who is also recovering from a rotational fall it’s been refreshing to see someone else have the same thoughts and feelings.
Congrats Meg and the girls!
Thanks for this ❤️
@@elphick.event.ponies Dee is really gonna have a foal?! congrats! ❤
I was rolled on in a jumping accident. I did jump after that but my " nerve" was never the same
@@india1422 same, since then i didn’t jump for a long time.. for a year i think… today is my first jumping training after such a long time.. i’m really scared but i hope i’ll be able to conquer my fears eventually
@@Defnotfoxieno it's fake news
THIS WAS LIKE THE ULTIMATE HORSE MOVIE! The highs, the lows, sad tears, happy tears, the comeback, the elation! Meg, you’ve become an amazing story teller of your own journey! Congrats on your blossoming career and triumph as a horsewoman.
I started crying when I saw Meg happy crying, and then started crying again when she greeting the fans waiting for her and the all cheered. Meg, see how many of us believe in you!!! You did amazing and I'm so proud to be a fan! And then the flash backs... great, crying again... why is this just such a beautiful video? Meg you are such a trooper!
I could not stop crying with excitement and happiness watching this. And Rich is still my favorite guest star.❤
Me too. I love his laugh and he never stops smiling. Your Xmas dressage with him and Otis is my absolute fave video of yours. Rich is a rockstar :)
Meg. You are what I call a credit to the equestrian community, hard-work, dedication, commitment and a passion for your ponies and all your team. The vlogs are fun, entertaining and educational.
Well done what a fabulous result with 2 ponies in the top 10.
Dreams really do come true for those who dream.
Awh thank you so much, very kind of you ❤️
Dream and work their butt off.
Not me saying ‘the silence is so loud’ in your second round of SJ making the cut 🤣🤣🙈 it was sooooo lovely watching you, and I’m honoured you used so much of my footage of your day! Well done and I can’t wait to see what you all get up to. Your community of friends is truly beautiful and the real equestrian dream in my eyes!!!
Thanks for the footage and the giggles during SJ that was accurate 😂
I don’t know how many other native ponies placed in the top 10, but you accounted for 20% of the top 10 placing with your two native ponies. You’ve proved that they can compete with the best of their division, be they TBs, warmbloods, or some other cross. You should feel so proud of that. And you’ve brought them along yourself. An amazing accomplishment!
I am sending you an ear-splitting smile from across the pond. Well done, well done, well done!!!!
I love how calming Lucinda’s voice is she could make anyone feel calm
Came back to the comments to say… you should be so freaking proud of yourself for not only beating the jumping demons but for doing it twice and absolutely smashing it on both girls! When just a few months ago you thought you couldn’t do it you did it!!!And then going and placing both in the top 10!!!
For dd to take you around after so long trying to get her there and come 4th going out with a bang and end on such a high.🤍
Jammy just continuing to be the superstar she is on her second run at badders💞
Such an emotional wholesome video. Well done Meg DD and jammy❤🎉
Thank you for taking all of us watching on your journey. The biggest congratulations to you and your grey girls for finishing top 10 x 2. Love to the entire team ❤
Jammy's "Stop, Squat and Launch" approach to the ditch is hilarious 😂
Even knowing the result doesn’t make this any less emotional 🙈🙈 to see you and jammy cross the finish line was so special after the day we no longer speak of but going double clear with the beloved DD makes it all the more special! You’ve shown your ups and downs all year and all the hard work and no one deserves this more ❤❤❤❤❤
Well, that made me cry. :-) In a good way. DD may have a career ahead in upper level dressage --pretty nice piaffe there in the start box LOL! CONGRATS to the whole amazing team. I know you appreciate how fortunate you are to have Lucinda, Rich, Han, Pete, and supportive parents! Not to mention 2 completely epic gray mares with enough heart for 10!
I was crying so much when you came over the line and then was starting to calm down then saw all the support from all the team and all your followers and I was off again. Everyone was routing you on and it was so extremely special. None of that would of happened without you so a huge congratulations xxx
Beautifully edited! I loved every moment! To think that all the confidence issues, Jam's incredible last month or so of getting fit, Dee and her incredible 4th, Jammy and her incredible 7th and Team Elphick! You made me cry! We've been with you all the way and it was obvious by the folks who sent you footage and reception of your followers that we all were and are so happy. You are right. It takes a village but it also takes personal courage and tenacity. Well done!!! Thanks for letting us come along for the ride!
Jumped on this as quickly as Dee wanted to jump into the showjumping warmup. Congratulations Meg. You’ve had the most amazing journey this year and you’re honestly an inspiration to us all. I can’t wait to keep watching as you and your channel grow from strength to strength. P.S. my toddler is currently applauding wildly so I think she’s pretty proud too 😂
Look at how many people were there to support you! Great job Meg. Jam and Dee are in better condition than we have ever seen them. Congratulations to you!
28:02 So chuffed to watch you conquer your fears and complete Badminton like that!! You did it, Meg!! I'm so proud of you and both Dee and Jam!! Double clear on both!! So, so proud of you!! And having Rich, Lucinda and everyone else on your team there to see you conquer your fear is amazing!! And to finish 4th and 7th out of such a large class is truly a great achievement!! Again, so proud of you!! Belated Happy Birthday Hobbit!!!! Love always, your friend, a Retired Paramedic, and a S&R Dog and Handler Team Trainer and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 🇨🇦🇬🇧
Thank you 🙂
The tears were flowing for this one, so so incredible ❤️ Just like Han said, so so proud of you! You are all the best team and just want to say thank you so much for taking us all along for the ride with you because all your videos have honestly keeps me going through some hard times. I am totally over the moon for you ❤
my god watching this made me so emotional. I’ve been following your journey since your first video on YT and I’m incredibly proud of you! AND LOOK AT ALL THE FANS LINING UP TO MEET YOU AT THE FINISH LINE!!! What an incredible journey this was, especially coming back after the fall you had. You know, all your fans are proud of you, but I really hope you take the time to be proud of yourself as well.
MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS!
You’re so incredibly brave and confident to jump after that incident.
Congrats on everything Meg!
I started crying when Meg started crying after that cross country round with Jammy! I couldn’t stop crying especially through watching the throwback of the fall. You’ve come such a long way and we’re so proud of you! 😭❤
I think I had something in my eye at the end of that! So happy for you, you did amazingly! Well done to you, the ponies and your crew. Can't wait for some more baby pony spam and to see you very awkwardly explain the 'birds and the bees' when it comes to choosing Dee's baby daddy!
CONGRATULATIONS ❤❤❤
Meg you had such amazing support. The ponies did so well. You had them all prepared for this weekend and they brought it home. Great job all around!!!!
Well done Meg and the grey girls!!! ❤ So exciting about Dee Dee’s future plans lovely that she got to have an amazing last event x
Edit: just had a thought of realisation about DDs foal parent…
Britannia? 🙊
Congrats to De de I am so excited to see her baby she is such a beautiful mare and she is such a good girl. I’m so happy and congrats to Brittney and her new baby
Aww meg had me crying at the xc on dd soo happy for you you were amazing could just see your emotion over the last xc jump with dee virtual hugs to you honey you deserve it 👏 ❤🎉
What a fantastic event. How absolutely amazing is Badminton Grass Roots! A mini(huge for me btw) version of the 5*!! All those lovely jumps, atmosphere, experiences just for you!! Thank you so much for proving to us all that even in the face of complex emotions, you got organized and with lots of love and help got your brain to focus and realize how strong and able and talented you are!!! Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this accomplishment and this demonstration of the incredible support team you have created around you!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Huge congratulations, Meg, Jam, and Dee, and your wonderful team, for your massive accomplishment at Badders. I believe you will have opened new thoughts for many about how to recover from something so traumatic, that it almost took you out. I'm so proud of you! When I looked at the people around you, supporting you, helping you and it's so obvious that they care about you, and see how good you are. I hope you're starting to believe that too! You're a star, Meg! Happy belated birthday, Hobbit. Your reactions make me cry as much as Meg does. Thanks from the bottom of my heart, for these two, amazing event vlogs.
Thanks so much for this lovely comment ❤️
Congratulations Meg you were so amazing and Dee and jam were amazing to , all that training has paid off , I cried so much and when you said Dee is going to have a baby . 🎉❤
Wow what a credit to your dedication and hard work. Your horses are a credit to you. What a fantastic team you have. Well done ❤❤
Okay, I stupid cried like a baby, I am SO HAPPY for you, Meg!!🎉😂
You are class, and so are Jam and Dee, and everyone on your team, that was epic!!!
I am really happy for you!
How sweet was Rich to help- I just love him, haha- and the ponies reuniting, so cute- SO HAPPY FOR YOU!
Go Team Elphick!
Oh my goodness I'm not even sure why but I was on the verge of tears of happiness the whole video
Superbe team work, so kind of everyone to come and help and support you and great Tina made it too.. How kind of Lucinda and your dressage coach to be there and your sport coach too// that's how to do it, mental Mind over horse preparation .. .. Very well done and ridden, Your ponies have been so well trained by you, they were jumping over the moon and Dee looked stunning at the prize giving next to all those flashy horses.. Great achievement with your Connemara ponies really... Did make me cry a bit too to see such an authentic effort from so many loving people..
Congratulations Meg. Part two was definitely worth the wait. And yes I’m sobbing again watching your reactions finishing cross country. You deserved to be in the top ten with both grey girls. You were amazing. Well done xx
Did anybody else blub their way through this entire vlog? Sooo emotional!
The meeting of the mares was great! Clearly they were asking each other how you rode LOL!
Congratulations Meg! What a fantastic thing to have done! and twice with great results both times! After watching you I honestly have to admit I want to do Badminton know! After watching you finish Dee on the cross country, I am not even joking goosebumps went all over me because of the sheer beauty of that moment, there were tears in my eyes. Congratulations for both ponies how fantastic that was. 😊😊❤❤🐎🐎 and oh my goodness what a wonderful surprise on Dee having a baby. Gosh what an inspiration you are!
So so proud of you Meggy!!🎉❤
I felt so emosh watching this! The raw emotion from you, Pete, Han and Hobbit was so immense and you did so so brilliantly despite the struggles you’ve been having! Lots of love to you all! What a bloody amazing team!!🤍🤍
Fantastic, well done, I am so happy for you, wonderful results. The ponies both did you proud, and you have such a fabulous and supportive team. Love the fact that both Rich and Lucinda came to support and help you, it shows how much they think of you. I loved the footage of your mum towards the end of the video where she is clapping her hands, she looks so proud of you. And of course Han and Pete always there to show support.
Meg you are INCREDIBLE!
The team you have behind you is amazing too and it’s honestly a privilege to share these moments with you! 🎉
Oh Meg I cried my eyes out you have come so god damn far I’ve never been prouder of someone I don’t know ♥️ I fell off 4 years ago and had a life changing injury and haven’t been able to ride like I did before just want to be back riding again and watching your videos makes me feel that little bit closer to the saddle so thank you ♥️
you make and old lady just feel so emotional and tearful. i dont know wny i get so emotional over someone i just dont know. ive been watching you for years. i was so surprised to see all your fans!!!! I had no idea but you deserve all the fame and glory. i think you will stay grounded.
Congratulations Meg I sobbed my socks off with you! Amazing achievement you’ve worked so hard and defeated those demons with class and style ❤❤
I met meg at badminton even though i didnt have a slip to see her but she still came and had a photo with me so thank you so much meg you made my day xx
Love you meg xx
So excited for this one. Love how much effort you put into these videos Meg!!
I can’t believe dee dee is going to have a baby don’t want to spoil for anyone but this was such the perfect way to end her career for a while ❤ you should be so so proud meggy ❤ jammy and you have come so far and I love that like Han said when you went into sj with jammy you knew that it would be a piece of cake because you were able to ride Dee through first I love that you had one pony leading and one following those two are simply the best for you ❤
Congrats Meg and the entire Elphick Event Ponies team!
Thank you for your transparency on this journey the ups and downs. Even though Im sure some of us had already noticed you and Lucinda talking about DeeDee being bred to one of hers... its still amazing to hear it officially (even if Lucindas isnt the final choice)
Love it! So proud of how you've come back from the last several months. I can't wait to watch this but after your intro I had an idea for a future video and I wanted to pop it on here before I forget... Hoping you see it! I know you've been working with Katie and the integrative coaching. I was wondering if you would do a colab video with her to explain a bit more what it is about. It's seemed to really help you loads and it would be great to raise awareness of it. Of course I don't for a second want to even suggest you reveal what you've been working through, that's private, but even just a general vlog, opening up the idea of mental health and sports would be ace :)
OMG that’s so exciting that Deedee is going to have a foal!! Was so frightened what you were going to say as you said last event 😅 my heart skipped a beat. Massive congratulations again for your incredible results at Badminton 🥰🥰 was so lovely meeting you! 😘
"I love thee with a love that shall not die, till the sun grows cold and the stars grow old."
- William Shakespeare -
So many unspoken and unwritten words of love here, Meg💗. The eyes, gestures, smiles, moves, sounds tell it all. They speak about kindness.
I am sitting here sobbing 😭 when you finished with Jam was so special ❤️
I cant help but cry at these emotional moments with you because its just so wonderful to see you do so well and come so far with the ponies every year, i am SO proud of you and Dee and Jammy
No matter how many times I watch thisni always cry! Just epic stuff meg
meg i literally cried the whole video. CONGRATS OMGGGG
wow meg! you truly are an inspiration to everyone. I am honoured to have been able to watch your journey so far from the start. I am absolutely blown away with you and the whole elphick event ponies team. Here's to you meggy, you've done everyone proud! 🥳🥳
Crying my eyes out at the end and its because of a million reasons. You are living my dream, Meg. Ive been riding 40 years nearly but i am disabled so could only dream of being an eventer. I only found your in November but i Am so invested 😂so proud 👏
Congratulations you have Conquered your fears you straight kicked butt out there Meg awesome job on both ponys. You had me crying with you at the end Incredible job!!!!!! 🐎🐎💖💖💖💖💖💖
Been watching you for the last few years and it is truly amazing watching you ride and blossom as a rider. Congratulations to you, your ponies and your amazing team that you have. Well done
Many congratulations on your achievement. A true professional. 👏
Oh my gosh Meg, I can't tell you how proud I am to have watched you grow over the past few years into an amazing and accomplished young horsewoman. Someone who has shown the full emotional journey of fear and self doubt. The tears I am currently crying are tears of joy and delight for you. Be very proud of yourself. X
Megan you are so amazing and you have such an amazing story. I am SO happy for you. I will say, I shed a few tears of happiness watching this, but it is because I’m so proud of you! Love jammy and dd!!!
Things like this happen in films! The plucky heroine and the two ponies she loves so much triumph when the chips are down. You worked so tremendously hard and the results prove it. Now you know the formula, the coaches whose input you need, the friends and family you need around you and the support from Katie, which I hope you carry on with. You know when you're doing something right when your competitors start giving you the side eye! Jam has more Badders in her still . You two belong in the top three and you can get there. This year I think you learned to believe in yourself and believe in your ponies. What a special achievement this year was and how many of us were holding our breath for you. Outstanding!
There is so much to say about this vlog! Congratulations doesn’t seem to cut it. Even though I knew the result I cheered; laughed and cried with you.
But what does this vlog and you show people, grit, determination, commitment, love for your horses, and courage when in the previous months you felt you couldn’t succeed.
You also show the beauty of relationships, not only with your horses but family and friends. You show people the importance of these, and the kindness and love generally showed in every second. Well done Meggy and the team. You are an inspiration to many xx
what an incredible day! thank you for sharing your journey and a huge congratulations on EVERYTHING! i feel so lucky that we get to experience this with you. i got emotional seeing you celebrating. you are such a strong, kind and really inspiring person. so happy for you!! xxx
You are so genuine, you deserve all of the success!!! Well done meg
Absolutely brilliant Meg. I was emotional when you came home from x country on Dee, but when you came in on Jam, I was bawling w happiness for you! 😊
Meg u don’t know how proud I am of you you’ve accomplished so much this last year coming from Bicton Lucinda’s, and now competing Jam and DD at Barrington you’ve done so good love you
I dont think iv cried so much watching someone's journey iv followed you for a while now and you give me so much inspiration im now disabled due to having a debilitating illness in my brain iv wanted to give up so many times but I watch your videos and you give the strength to keep going and still ride my mare daisy. You don't know me but you mean so much to me congratulations you deserve every bit of it. 🎉🎉🎉

EPIC BADMINTON 2023 VLOG MEG! 4TH with Dee Dee & 7TH with Jam Bam ~ out of 102 ENTERIES ~ CONGRATULATIONS! Christine - using my hubbies laptop! xOx
Congratulations Meg and Team - so inspired to overcome my own fears. Thank you for this inspiration.
Omg! I started crying! We are all so proud of you Meg! You have come so far and helped so many people along the way! You helped me a lot with my confidence journey as well! You going through your confidence break helped me understand I’m not the only person struggling! Seeing you succeed gives me faith that I don’t have to give up! You’re so amazing! We all love you very much! ❤️
I know this is a really late comment but this was so much fun to watch and experience with you. When I competed I was all alone. No groom, no cameras, etc. but I was having so much fun. Keep up the great work
Thanks meg at badminton for having a picture with me i look uo to you in the horsdy world xx
Fair bloody play to you Meg. It takes real guts to do what you have done. You really should be proud of yourself, not just your horses, they are a credit to you!
Just the most joyous video, been waiting for this one. So happy for you and your whole team and especially your beautiful ponies. Congratulations, so well deserved.
To say I sobbed with joy is an understatement, I didn’t realise how emotionally invested I was in your journey and purely seeing you succeed and get home safely. You really are one of the most inspirational sportspersons on this platform. Meg, you really can do it all 💕
Well done Meg you and your horses did an amazing job.well done to everyone.x
Spectacular video! Crying with you Meg! You have been so brave Facing your fears! What a beautiful team you have had around you! You are amazing! ❤❤❤
Congratulations on everything Meg! It's so amazing to see how far you have come from the fall. You're so incredibly brave. TOP 10, Wow just incredible and we love you all Meg. These 2 videos were so fun to watch and Meg you are an inspiration to so many people. Thank you for bringing us along on the journey. You have the most fantastic ponies and fantastic team.
Can't wait to hear more about the future plans for Dee. This video brought tears ton my eyes
Lots of love Eleni x
So proud of you, you have overcome so much, and as someone who is just starting my journey back into riding with my tibial plateau fracture now healed and cleared by the surgeon and feeling that I have full movement back. You will inspire me to trust myself and understand that once again I am allowed to be scared riding again. It's okay.
So thank you Meg, and congratulations.
Meg you are a true inspiration - you've shared all the highs and the lows so openly and you've worked so hard. Your support team, the two girls and everything about this vlog is so special!!❤
This is so badass! You've conquered those fears and now you're standing up at the top of the mountain looking down at how far you've come! Well done Meg and to the grey girls! How exciting that Dee will be having a baby! As the saying goes teamwork makes the dreamwork and what an incredible team you have!
Awh thanks so much lovely ❤️
congratulations Meg 🎉 so so proud of you!
The Grey Girls brought their A games and so did you, Meg! With the exception of the coffin, with Jam, from which you both recovered brilliantly, I feel like every cross combo was foot perfect. Super impressive! You really do have the best support team ever (even though I was worried about injuries incurred during champagne!) and you deserve the most happiness for your excellent care of the grey beauties, your kind, sympathetic riding and top drawer horsemanship.
You did it!! And you done a super job, it’s amazing to see you back on and having fun! ❤
I’ve been balling my eyes out, thank you for sharing your journey! We love you🫶🏻🫶🏻
Huge congratulations to you and the ponies!!!!! Also, a big congrats to the team of family, friends & trainers.
I’m a little late to the video! But Meg your such a big inspiration to me and many other people!
Just think you did this you got here you trained Dee and jam! Your absolutely amazing and so are you horses I love your videos and I’ve been watching you for 2 years!!🩷 you deserve the world! I’m so proud of you!! Meeting you would be a dream come true! You seem like such a sweet person! And your always so grateful ❤
I was literally crying my eyes out with happiness for you Meg! Following your story throughout the years and seeing all the hard work and dedication finally pay off, was amazing to watch. Cannot wait to see what the future brings for you and your amazing ponies/horses! Thank you for taking us on this awesome journey with you. :) x
