You have done as much as you can to prepare Bella for this moment, I don’t think she will let you down even though she is very excited. She looks stunning. First rule of owning a horse, always ensure tied securely or in a safe place. Hope that horse didn’t get too far and was OK.
You and Rens are such a power-house of a couple. Wonderful on such an important occasion to have his support and understanding. Watching your videos, I realise what a difference it makes. I know you have done the training and riding , Tara, but kudos to both of you.
Bella is looking better and better, but I'm glad she didn't meet the loose horse as it wld have been a shock. She seems very secure when you're riding her Tara, knowing you're so close. She's such a cutie, bless! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
oh no i hope the horse was found quickly! hope that bella was a good girl for the remainder of the ride. im praying she did reallllllly good😆cant wait for the next one, so proud of her even with her little anxiety over the new surroundings, she is doing great so far!
Bella looking excited but proud to be out amongst others with her Mum.👏🏻🥰 Loved hearing her knicker and Dad mimicking her with his “yes.” 🤗 At least Mr. Free Rein was just on a wander and not a bolt like Faroukles. (Oh, let’s not remember THAT scary day!) 😲😬❤️
Yes...but then Faroukles never does anything at 1/2 speed...except walk home head down on a loose rein. That was a milestone ride. Seems like a lot of the same folks on this ride so I hope for success.
Bella is doing very well a bit anxious and on her toes but once you get on the ride hopefully will settle and use some of her energy. A bit weird letting that horse wander off. Hope the owner gets it back ready for riding. Great video Rens 🐴🐴🐴👀👀
Hope the loose horse was caught quickly! Honestly, this vid has been one of the most exciting frocked with anticipation! I mean from edge of seat, bucket of popcorn ready🍿😃. Thinking of Bella in one of the first videos with her momma, to arriving at the homestead, through training, to NOW! Ahhh😱😊! Can’t wait for the rest of the show😬💛!
Miss Bella is certainly on her toes, ready to show the world her accomplishments. I dareday she will simmer down once she can get down to business. ❤❤🐎🐎🏇🏇🥰🥰👍👍🤞🤞🤞🤞
Bella seems to be settling after a little walking around! I’m sure she is still on her toes, but hopefully she will listen to you! Bella is usually very sensible! I hope the loose horse walked away for some nice grass which wasn’t too far away! Good luck and thanks for filming her momentous first ride in a group! 🐴⭐️❤️❤️❤️
She's so high energy and always learning. You can practically see all the wheels spinning, lol. I hope Bella was able to settle in and enjoy her public debut. She looks fabulous. Thanks for taking us along, Tara💙
Real good girl Bella on her maiden voyage 1st ride out with a riding group Tara as always you have her well in hand great ride mom n dad happy trails together ❤️ 🐎 🐴
Love Bella's new partly-shaved look...her undercoat matches the light spot at the top of her tail! Very chic & stylish! Bella seems ready for anything...Good Luck🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Tara I have loved following your journey with Bella. You are bringing her along in a very correct way. She is progressing so nicely and you read her moods and anxiety perfectly. ❤I don’t have your experience but have been on this journey too. Introducing a horse to competitive distance riding requires good horsemanship. I had good mentors and that allowed me to experience it with my mare. I am looking forward to more of your adventures with Bella.
Well done you both! You never quite know what to expect on a first outing in company, but she seemed happy as long as she was busy doing something, and not having to stand still.
Now there is a rider who cares enough about her horse and tells the others there enough to keep everyone safe, especially the horse.......stunning horse as well.
Looking great Tara and Bella ! Shes so white, im not used to it yet...it looks like paint 😅 Her main is come in nicely and shes such a beaut 👍 Even her voice has deepened. I saw a short this morning of a horse that wandered into a mans garage and went straight up to the heater.One of the colder states. Over 2000 comments ( of course 😅) someone said they 🐴 like to wander off but usually come back. Good to know.
Bella seams to be setting down and getting used to the different routine. Back 50 years ago as a young girl I groomed race horses. Weeks before a horse’s first race we would take the young one to the races and let them see and hear the commotion. We’d take ththen take them back home. After a time or two they were much calmer about the experience . At least as calm as expected from an excitable horse ☺️
Awwwww I love her little nose twitching ,and she moves so nice ,absolutely gorgeous Bella,,,I don't think she will kick ,she's to sweet nature,,xxxxxxxx
Tara, you look so happy and confident astride beautiful Bella. All that hard work rewarded! And thanks to Rens for all his support. *Question*: Pardon my ignorance, but was Bella partially shaved? Was this prevent overheating? Waiting for Part 2! 😊
How'd I miss this video?! Soooo exciting. Small friendly group who know you, Tara, so i predict great success. Is the gentleman from your last ride with Farouk -rides western- is he with you this time? I don't remember his horse having a blaze. Hey Rens 👋. Always good to see you. Whooeee...Bella is so gorgeous. You make bringing her along look so easy. ❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Hi Tara and Rens, You can tell Bella is excited by the way she is holding her neck and walking. Her legs look a bit stiff but I think that is because she is excited and ready to go. She is probably thinking : " What is the hold up on our hack today? Come on Mum let's get going!" Good luck on the ride and have a good time. Do people think she is a pinto due to her coat clipping?
🐴🐴💙...Have to say Bella's Mane looks amazing!😍You would hardly know that it had been chewed 😋 on!😂💞...Bella's gonna do Great! Tho She's on Her Toes, She's giving off, to Me , this vibe that's saying She's ready, willing and able to do this👊💃💞...Can't wait for part 3! Thank you ever so much for sharing and All take care! Have a Wonderful Weekend!🙏🥰🤗🤗🐶💗...🐴🐴💙
😂😂. She would still be at home if it was me😆🫣😬 Yet you seem so relaxed and secure on her as she’s bouncing on her toes… you remind me of when I was a teenager… not now Im a lady in her 60’s. 🤗 She looks stunning…. And you have done a wonderful job with her education. She is as brave and bold as you are…👍‼️😍
I just thought of something, in a distant episode you mentioned "know your ribbons"...if Bella is a novice, shouldn't she be wearing a green ribbon on her tail?
@@Tara101 hmh. If you say so. I did not see anything of that in the video or would there be said which horse had run off even. Because of the running off title I watched the video and was just shown dull walking around of nice horses.
To be expected on her toes. But if all goes well, she will pick up on your actions and follow suit. Calm, cool, collected. 🐴🧑🦳👍 Did they find the horse that walked off,? and was it okay?
Didn’t realise how big she was ,since I last saw u walking beside Bella..she grown into a big sturdy girl.
🐴😊

She’s behaving very well for first time out with other horses. Look forward to next part😘😘
Wow, Bella is a lovely looking mare and she behaved really well too. ❤
😊
This mare's markings are just stunning! Beautiful girl.
Her blaze is beautiful. Come summer I bet she dapples up beautifully.
Bella has had her coat clipped to keep her cool. She is an even colour all over naturally! She looks nice though.
You and Rens are such a power-house of a couple. Wonderful on such an important occasion to have his support and understanding. Watching your videos, I realise what a difference it makes. I know you have done the training and riding , Tara, but kudos to both of you.
I agree. The Boyz all respond well to Rens' comforting voice when they get antsy. They enjoy those 'conversations '.
Thank you so much!
She's looking 'absolutely fabulous'. On her toes, which is perfectly understandable, but collected and interested.
👍
Ahh she loookss soooo good. Amazing how much she has filled up since last year
Bella is looking better and better, but I'm glad she didn't meet the loose horse as it wld have been a shock. She seems very secure when you're riding her Tara, knowing you're so close. She's such a cutie, bless! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
😊
Rens is such a star he has a love for the horses.and is such a support .well done getting Bella to this stage.in her education.she is beautiful.❤
Yes. What would we do without Rens!?! Lucky wife Tara.
oh no i hope the horse was found quickly! hope that bella was a good girl for the remainder of the ride. im praying she did reallllllly good😆cant wait for the next one, so proud of her even with her little anxiety over the new surroundings, she is doing great so far!
😊
How strange, it appears that the woman who was beside that horse just let him wonder off...
Doing well so far. It’s all a new experience and she looks like she is enjoying it.
👍
Bella’s all excited going on her first group ride with mum.
I hope they were able to catch that horse that wondered off, oh dear.
We can always count on you to have a beautifully turned out mount. Bella is doing so well with her training. Wishing you both all the best.
😊
Bella seems so excited, can't wait to get started😀
👍
She's looking lovely and doing well so far.

Aww bless her wee nervous soul. I can't believe that horse got loose and nobody noticed. Sneaky devil lol 🐎😲😳🥰
What a big girl now 🤗🎉♥️...
She's gonna do amazing Tara🤩 ✊🏼🫶🏼🙋♀️

Bella is much taller than I thought. You look excited to take her out…it’s been a long time coming and lots of loving work has gone into it❤
Love Bella's new partly-shaved look...her undercoat matches the light spot at the top of her tail! Very chic & stylish! Bella seems ready for anything...Good Luck🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Bella 🌻is so excited and happy 😃 to be out in a new place 🌞 with Mummy and Daddy! She looks so beautiful 🌟
🐴👍
glad to see a couple of western riders with you
Beautiful horse. She was obviously distracted and not totally focused on what you wanted. Good first day out!

Love from Australia 🇦🇺
It was!😊

Look how proud she is Bella how pretty she is 😍

Her mane has as grown in wonderful🐴🐴
Bella going on new outdoor adventures.
👍
Always love your videos so much, better than medicine to make one feel better.
Your horse is gorgeous! Love her markings❤️💕
she did really well Tara
Excellent rider ; still hands, seat and legs!!!
Tara, I was quite surprised to see you leading on the right side. Bella must have been confused.
She stunning
Thank you!
Such unique markings
it's clipping
I just didn't expect her being white 😅
Tara, you look so happy and confident astride beautiful Bella. All that hard work rewarded! And thanks to Rens for all his support.
*Question*: Pardon my ignorance, but was Bella partially shaved? Was this prevent overheating?
Waiting for Part 2! 😊
yes she is clipped for that reason
It looks as if her excitement comes from the inside. No special anxieties of the other horses.
How'd I miss this video?! Soooo exciting. Small friendly group who know you, Tara, so i predict great success.
Is the gentleman from your last ride with Farouk -rides western- is he with you this time? I don't remember his horse having a blaze.
Hey Rens 👋. Always good to see you.
Whooeee...Bella is so gorgeous. You make bringing her along look so easy. ❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Bill is the Western rider he was with Farouk and I on the tunnel event.
@@Tara101 he seemed like a nice guy. Great ride companion.
Very nice horse
Thank you!
Bella is gorgeous
Thank you!
Hi Tara and Rens, You can tell Bella is excited by the way she is holding her neck and walking. Her legs look a bit stiff but I think that is because she is excited and ready to go. She is probably thinking : " What is the hold up on our hack today? Come on Mum let's get going!" Good luck on the ride and have a good time. Do people think she is a pinto due to her coat clipping?
no one said that, we clip in Yorkshire a lot in winter so I think most rides know she is clipped.

Bella is a beauty and a clever girl
thank you😊
I hadn't watched the video, and I was worried it was pur Bella who had gone for a walkabout.
Glad it wasn't Bella.
❤❤❤🐎🐎🐎
Me too!
Tara…. You are some crazy brave lady🤗‼️‼️. I’ve ridden for the last 45yrs… and nothing would have made me get onto Bella there. Kudos to you👍‼️❌
where would you have got on her, or would you have taken her home?
😂😂. She would still be at home if it was me😆🫣😬
Yet you seem so relaxed and secure on her as she’s bouncing on her toes… you remind me of when I was a teenager… not now Im a lady in her 60’s. 🤗
She looks stunning…. And you have done a wonderful job with her education. She is as brave and bold as you are…👍‼️😍
😊
Love her clip. So the white part is her skin color, and her hair is tan?
Um. Strangest clip I've ever seen, but whatever, it does the job!
@@cyflym11 memorable. I'm not aware of clips in the U.S. except jumpers.
@@lchinchey oh we clip hairy cobs too. Saves a lot of work!
❤❤
❤❤❤
I just thought of something, in a distant episode you mentioned "know your ribbons"...if Bella is a novice, shouldn't she be wearing a green ribbon on her tail?
she should, but I left it in the tack room, so we informed all the riders before we took off.
Tara, what breed is she? She is the most unusually marked horse I have seen in a long time! Bella is striking and I love her.
She is an Andalusian and her "markings" are the result of a partial clip.
@@Tara101 Ok now that makes sense. Well good clip job because she is stunning.
The title of this video is not what is shown. The horse did not run off!
The horse did run off but they managed to catch him
@@Tara101 hmh. If you say so. I did not see anything of that in the video or would there be said which horse had run off even. Because of the running off title I watched the video and was just shown dull walking around of nice horses.
perhaps this is more to your liking th-cam.com/video/NAGHrtbm72E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ct1dzC2_26jc87Uq
Bella is doing ok .A bit new to her without Apollo and farouk 🦄🩷
To be expected on her toes. But if all goes well, she will pick up on your actions and follow suit. Calm, cool, collected. 🐴🧑🦳👍
