    Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed the video! Leave a comment below letting me know what you thought and which horse was your favorite! Have a great day ❤😊

      You rode all of them quite well but the bay mare you retried I thought suited your style best.

      I also like the bay mare, uphill, wants to jump, great knees, with a really good rhythm and no funny business on the backside. Those are some lovely horses. She's 11, so in her prime right now.

      If you didn’t buy horse #5 could you somehow send his ad to me he’s exactly what I’m looking for in a horse.

    The bay mare is super! She’s athletic, snaps her knees up well but also doesn’t waste time or energy in the air… a lovely type!

    • @alextrubey
      @alextrubey  ปีที่แล้ว +23

      I agree! She was amazing to ride too! ❤️

    it's been soo long since I watched trying horses videos and that one is definitely more than what I expected, the editing and camera quality were awesome!! (THAT MARE just had me in love with the very first sight, I think you chose her)

    • @alextrubey
      @alextrubey  ปีที่แล้ว +11

      ahhh thank you so much! it means so much to me, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! and yes that mare is quite special and was an amazing ride for sure! hopefully not long until I can announce my choice!

    #5 and #7 look super cool, you seemed really comfortable on them aswell!! The bay has lovely movement and a nice jump, but the grey has a really amazing floaty jump, you can tell he will have an amazing jumping career in the future!! 😍😍😍

  • @shortymcfox2251
    @shortymcfox2251 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    You could tell by your 2 and 3 point which horse you looked the most comfortable in and even while in a slow canter relaxing. #7 you looked your best out of all of them. Your body was relaxed, both of you were good in positioning and communication/trust was spot on. Good looking horse. #3 you both were well together but the overall confirmation looked a bit off. Whichever you pick, I’m sure you both will be wonderful together. In my 50 plus years with horses, I’ve always like the European training (just my age showing lol) God bless your journey 🌻

    • @alextrubey

  • @chloeweinbaum4104
    @chloeweinbaum4104 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think you should get #5 bay mare bc the horse looked excited and nice gaits and all that but you looked the best (in my opinion) you looked calm and confident and it seemed like y’all had a connection. She looked like she wanted to work and take care of you.

  • @Alexandra-rq1nl

    What is the name of the stables in Germany? I am also currently looking for a horse🙈.

  • @richardhoffend5870
    @richardhoffend5870 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Great video. Bay horse #6 (after Munster), is so athletic! Deep spots super kind. Perfect distances he jumps a 10. Great lift scopey! Soft in the mouth looks through the bridle! I wish you’d tell us ages and exactly what you’re looking for. Amateur jumper? Low, medium, big? U 25?
    2 weeks in Europe horse shopping what a fantastic treat!!!! I hope you are successful.

    • @alextrubey
      @alextrubey  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you!! And the ages are in the timestamps in the description, but I could have made them more obvious 😅 sorry about that! And I’m looking for something around a 1.45m horse (if it takes me to the U25 that would be a bonus), I have a 1.30-1.40m horse right now that I’ll still be riding so just looking for the next step up! Thanks for watching! ☺️

    • @SarahQG-qr9cc
      @SarahQG-qr9cc ปีที่แล้ว

      Look at its pasterns tho! It's completely overbred and shouldn't be jumped at all. Horses like that usually don't stay healthy for long.

    Oof I personally would not have liked how that second horse jumped, it looked super heavy although I could be wrong. On the flat he looked adorable though! ❤

  • @Lila.x0

    Definitely number 7! He was extra floaty and his movement over the jumps were so gorgeous. Not to mention his beauty as well! ♡

  • @michelleturner6865
    @michelleturner6865 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I thought the bay horse, the second on the video, was the most talented for high level show jumping. I thought he would pop you out of the saddle though. Great job riding. I think that’s the one you went to retry. Hope so. What a horse

  • @jomanna5934
    @jomanna5934 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    #5 Bay mare was the best of the lot for me, I also liked #7 Grey gelding.

    I really like horse number 5, I thought she was just gorgeous and she had such a lovely jump along with her canter and trot. I really do hope you will be able to purchase her, and if you do, I'll be super happy! xx

    • @alextrubey
      @alextrubey  ปีที่แล้ว

  • @helgsy
    @helgsy ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The pale bay that you jumped twice, or the white/grey (the last horse I believe)… when I saw the pale bay I thought right, this is the one - but I really loved that grey’s fast, alert manner. It reminded me of my own favourite horse, which reminded me that we all have different preferences and I may prefer a certain type or manner, but you may be shopping for raw potential… so when you do reveal the horse, it would be very interesting to know your thought process and what was most important to you, 😊👍

    Hey alex! this is the first time i seen your channel and i love it, do you have any tips for having good posture when in 2 point?

    • @alextrubey
      @alextrubey  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello and thank you! ☺️ as far as improving posture in 2 point goes, the best thing to do is practice! I will often warm up just walking or trotting a few times around the ring in 2 point. And for everyone it’s different but for me, I focus on stretching down through my legs and wrapping my lower leg around my horse’s body to have a strong base of support and then being strong and balanced but not stiff in my upper body! A good way to work on 2 point over fences is through grids/gymnastics! Focusing on being as centered and balanced as possible while still being effective in your riding has helped me a lot! Also when you’re first starting out working on your 2 point, don’t be afraid to grab a bit of mane for balance! Obviously the end goal is to be strong enough to balance on your own but when your learning and getting stronger, it can help! Hope this made sense and can help you a bit!
