If you can’t control your dog you shouldn’t bring it to these kind of events. Especially if it likes to chase horses. Glad you and Doughnut were able to keep your composure through that
Wow. He even took the dog in his stride. What a complete nightmare. That round shows he’s a real forward thinking guy who just needs to be shown a fence and he’ll take it on. What a round. Congratulations.
Donut's level of professionalism and calmness with that dog was amazing. I'm so happy for you guys! You were incredible and made it look easy. Can't wait to see your next adventure and what start boxes this pony takes you through in the future. Well done!
Hurrah for the £1 Pony!!! What a megastar!!!! He looked utterly magnificent in all three phases, and the leaps he did over the broken bridge, and the trakhaner[sp?] WOW!!!! Huge congrats on getting there, and completing!!! Can't wait to see where you go from here!!! 🥕 🥕 🍏 🍏 💐 🍾 🤩 💖
Congratulations. Not only a fantastic job in producing donie but also the very best badminton grassroots vlog by a country mile. Super job with the series overall - and with your skill in storytelling, it'll be fascinating to see yee progress up the grades even more. Brilliantly done
He is a machine x country, nothing fazes him, so willing, lugs pricked, well done 🎉 I absolutely love your common sense and just getting on with things, you both deserve to have a brilliant season and great future, no spoilt girl here, just a hard working, talented lass with a super supportive mum ❤ xx
Wow Evie and donut what a fantastic round that lot was I’d be proud too he looks beautiful so tucked up and super fit. Shame about the loose dog but he didn’t bat an eye lid bless him. This was so good to watch.very well done.tfs🤗🏇🤗
Very well done. Donut is a lean, mean, jumping machine! He looks fabulous and is testament to your skill, dedication and determination. What a privilege to hack round the estate. I also follow Tina and Meg, so am seeing the Grassroots comp from all sides. Best wishes for the rest of the season.
Congratulations, Evie & Nutty 🎉 it was wonderful to see you both powering round Badminton; such an inspiration to other riders....the only way is up! The dog incident was unfortunate but fortunately it didn't upset you as it may have done for other riders/horses. The colour chart for Donut made me laugh. I'd say he was more a "Copper Sunrise." Once again, well done. Much love to you all ❤🐴🐎❤️
What an amazing achievement, well done to you both, especially how you coped with the loose dog. Donut was born to do eventing - so excited for the future. A pleasure to watch.
Well done and well deserved. Was absolutely gutted for you when the dog come running after him so pleased you managed to stay inside the time even after the long route! What a superstar he is, don't think he is 'ditchy' anymore....he aced that Trakehner!!
That looked like a REALLY challenging X country course. Donut looked like he had a blast, though! He is a handsome, athletic horse, for sure! You guys did fabulous! ❤
Second viewing of your jumping and same feeling ... you 2 are headed for BIG things. Get out the bubble wrap and keep those feet sound. I am stoked to watch, feel like I have a great friend doing BIG inspiring things across the pond. Go E and D!!! All. The. WAY!
Well done, how awesome to get Donut to the champs and he jumped so beautifully! Also well done to you both for dealing with the dog chase so well and calmly in a high pressure situation.
Luv your Vlogs & what a wonderful horse Donut is. Great ride! 🧡🥕🧡 Fabulous duo with so much ahead of you both. You made me cry tears of joy. PS. I’d paint my walls Dulux Donut
Well done Evie! Brilliant vlog and so lovely to watch your Donut so happy and enjoying his job. He obviously has so much trust in you, to take on Badminton with such boldness. 🙌👏🏆❤
I am so incredibly impressed and proud of you both - great ride Evie and Donut you were so brave and strong - just a beautiful team together you are!!!
Well done Evie and Donutty!! iv followed your journey for a while now ( I went to Brack years ago ) and it made me well up watching this as im so chuffed for you! you give such a confident ride on all your horses, they truly look like they love their job, as do you! xxx
Incredible cross country Evie!!!! What a champion horse he is. You’ve got an upper level cross country machine and your riding ability is up to the challenge! He honestly looked like the upper level horses I’ve watched from last week! So happy and thrilled for you! All the work you’ve been doing has paid off. Congratulations!! 👍👍
you were both epic, Donut looked like a million bucks and wow he is loving this!! ears pricked throughout all the show jumping and x country. He is so so special!! that dog, wow horrible!!
So amazing well done Donut , and he dealt with the dog too my heart was in my mouth watching it ! .So looking forward to seeing more of your journey . Smashing it Evangeline fabulous riding ! xx
I've only just come across your account and all I can say is, your like a breath of fresh air. Your an incredible horse woman and it shows with the attentive care you give to your horses. Will definitely be subscribing to your channel 👌
Congrats!! So exciting to have that under your belts, I had PTSD for you every time a dog barked after that :O You both handled it amazing, and what an achievement, he looks great and you guys are the cutest pair!! thanks for sharing, as always!
Absolutely fabulous!🥰 Loved watching this vlog and loved watching you in person too! I was lucky enough to be there to watch your dressage and you flying around the xc🥰
You & Donut were amazing!! Watching your journey has been so much fun. And I have to say, I love the interaction between you & your mum. Ya'll are such a class act
Wow what an absolute superstar. Definitely shows being a thoroughbred round that cross country. So forward thinking taking on all the questions!! Well done both of you. Never mind the £1 horse think he’s gonna be your up the levels horse!!
I am so mad about that dog! Who would bring a dog to an event that chases horses?? But you both handled it amazing and congrats on a wonderful show! I’ve very much enjoyed following your story.
Im so impressed by you, your journey, Ive loved Donut from the start, i knew he had such scope.. That is so awful about the dog, how well you keep your cool, you are so authentic and calm and loving, BravO.. 🐎
Congratulations Evie you are both amazing your beautiful boy sure can jump he loves the cross country for sure so proud of you both cheers and best wishes from the South Island of New Zealand 🌸
Wow wow wow, the way you both fear nothing and attack and have fun!! He looked at nothing andstepped over them like sticks in the way. That boy, 5* potential all the way, both of you!!!! So proud for you. ❤❤
awww bless brought a tear to my eye, and such a lovely keepsake to look back at in years to come, well done Poundstretcher, The ginger pinger and your mum the unsung hero behind the scenes xx
YOU DID AMAZING! DONUT WAS BRILLIANT! Bad luck with the dog, but you coped well. AMAZING RUN! Thank you so much for sharing your journey. Loved it. Brilliant Donut, clever boy. I look forward to your next adventure!
Congratulations to you and Donut! What a superstar! Can't believe how calm you both were with that dog seriously quick thinking! Amazing in all three phases! I thought your dressage was brilliant and deserved a better score too! And you're not sad Evie! I prefer my Horse to parties too xxx
Congratulations on a fantastic performance at Badminton. Donut looked fantastic and jumped so well. His dressage is coming on and can’t wait for his next comp. You both dealt so well with that dog too and some great photos. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Congratulations on your achievement! Very well handled with the dog, what a superstar horse you have! And don’t tell the others but Donut is by far the best looking horse on UA-cam, he wouldn’t look out of place stood next to all the 5* horses! 🥰
Well done evie for sharing your journey, AS you have had so meney setbacks at the begging of the season. We all apresheat what YOU achieve, GOOD luck with your next event. 😊😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍💖 And a BIG thank you to ALL your helpers .
Huge CONGRATULATIONS Evie & Donut 🎉🎉 A 5* performance from you both 👏 👏👏 Donut looked glorious (he glistened, also fab plaits & quarter-markings 🎉). Donut's confidence and intelligence, especially in the cross-country, were spectacular. You have truly done an excellent job with him, Evie, he trusts you & you make a wonderful partnership. A shout out to your awesome Mum & to all Team Evie - I loved watching your escapades. Definitely going to try banana fritters❤
Omg, I had to pause after your show jumping round (which was great, by the way) to remark on how much the way you ride Donut, having to really use your upper body to slow him down and get him sitting back on his hind end reminds me SO much of the way I used to ride my late beloved show jumper, Sandor. He was a big chestnut gelding too, and the whole picture reminds me of watching my winning SJ rounds on my favorite jumper. It gave me a nice stroll down memory lane…❤). That was beautifully ridden!
Brilliant vlog best of all I have seen , what is so so evident and so lovely is how much you and yr mum enjoyed every minute and totally appreciated the whole experience ..just lovely also so lovely to see you doing all the work yourself not a massive entourage ..well done ✅✅✅🐴🐴🐴 ps - I get ponies done early before the busy times at stay aways much the best way x
Aw thank you! I actually had much more help than usual this time with Amber plaiting for me etc - I honestly can’t remember a time before that that I haven’t plaited so that was strange for me! We had a lovely week. Glad you enjoyed the vlog! X
Wonderful job both of you! Handled all of the "tests" presented to you including the unplanned loose canine! That kind of issue truly tests the quality of your equine partner and Donut handled it beautifully. Hope that your plan to move up to 2* level comes quickly and without any incidents.
Congratulations! 🎉 He is just the coolest boy round the xc, I cant believe how nonchalant both of you were about Loose Dog 😂 but just right not to let it overshadow his incredible performance! Pair of pros.
Wow congratulations loved this video, I’ve been eagerly waiting. And yeah the dog part was stressful even to watch but on slow mo how happy did it look chasing after a scrumptious doughnut 😹
You guys handled that so beautifully! Making that cross country round look so easy! WOW! Wonderful team! And way to handle your composure and way through that all! So beautiful!
Ah I thought everyone may be bored of the intro by now! I might pull it out again if we manage to enter a 2* at some point… You and nutty definitely matched! X
New subscriber here. Incredibly talented horse, will watch his older reels to find out how you got him. Such a type thoroughbred, such such a great thoroughbred mind. He did handle the dog well. I don’t think my former thoroughbred would have. He would’ve tried to kick the dog. So good job. Can’t wait to see how Donut progresses. He’s such a star.
Welcome to the family! Donut is a dude. I need to do an updated video on him as I don't know how good this is anymore but here is the video from when I got him: ua-cam.com/video/vohnLwQKWDQ/v-deo.htmlsi=iHMB_sPvreAlev1E 🩷
Awww, well done Evie and well done Donut! What an absolutely fabulous partnership you two are. Ditchy Donut is definitely well and truly gone watching him jump that trakehner! Loved the vlog and following your journey together from when you got him. Looking forward to seeing how far you can get together. I know he hasn't raced but does he qualify for RoR (just being in training can qualify them)? Just wondering because I believe next year there is a championship at Intermediate Novice for RoRs (with pretty hefty prize money), wouldn't he be be a great contender for that if he does qualify as an RoR.
Thank you, it’s so nice you’ve been able to be with us for the journey! I saw that event when it was announced a while back, I need to look at the rules as he never even went in to training due to being too clumsy 🙈 but he has got a Weatherby’s passport so I’ll need to see if we can enter with the rules etc x
@@ELSEventing I think I might be one of donuts biggest fans, I really enjoy watching your vlogs. I do hope our paths cross one day out on the circuit, I bet he looks even better in person than on the screen. On the RoR point, if he hasn't been in training I'm pretty sure he won't be eligible, unfortunately. I'm not an expert but I have looked at the rules a few years ago, not sure if they might have changed in those years. You could pop him in a point to point to try and qualify him. Given the prize money is £50k it might be worth it! x
Evie you rode him like you stole him ,, he ate up that cross country course , I adore you £1 ginger giant , so nice to see someone that all the work is done by you , you have not spent a week with a top eventer, you are not a walking advert for Equine companies, having saddles, bridles, bits , thrown at you ,, like a breath of fresh-air .. looking forward to see what comes next ,,
Can't believe I haven't come across ELS eventing before! Absolutely loved the vlog.. you're so down to earth and relatable. He's worth a LOT more than £1 now, credit to you. My youngster is struggling with right canter transition but as you said with Donut, her right use to be her best canter and now it has switched. He LOVED the cross country, wow, its like he has done it all his life! Separate note, what do you use to pull his tail?
Oh and I use clippers on the sides of his tail 🙈 and use a smart grooming rake on the top! X One like this: smartgrooming.com/collections/smart-manes-tails-coats/products/smart-tails-standard-range x
Congratulations!!! I love seeing your partnership. What would have happened if he didn't handle the dog so well? Could you have been eliminated or faulted even though it was out of your control?
If you can’t control your dog you shouldn’t bring it to these kind of events. Especially if it likes to chase horses. Glad you and Doughnut were able to keep your composure through that
100%
Should be compulsory to keep them on a lead
@@pixie706it is at badminton they were making announcements about it constantly
The dog owner should be fined and made to pay the full cost of Evie's entry fee back to her as a minimum.
@@pixie706 Dog wa dragging it's leash. Owners of loose dogs should be escorted off the grounds immediately!
Wow. He even took the dog in his stride. What a complete nightmare. That round shows he’s a real forward thinking guy who just needs to be shown a fence and he’ll take it on. What a round. Congratulations.
Donut's level of professionalism and calmness with that dog was amazing. I'm so happy for you guys! You were incredible and made it look easy. Can't wait to see your next adventure and what start boxes this pony takes you through in the future. Well done!
Ah let’s hope there is lots more start boxes 🤞🏻 thank you so much xx
Hurrah for the £1 Pony!!! What a megastar!!!! He looked utterly magnificent in all three phases, and the leaps he did over the broken bridge, and the trakhaner[sp?] WOW!!!!

He got you round that course effortlessly! I hope the dog owner found you to apologise in person. Well done!
He looked gorgeous going over all the jumps. I’m so excited about his future. Congratulations!
Me too! Thank you! X

Awww, well done Evie and well done Donut! What an absolutely fabulous partnership you two are. Ditchy Donut is definitely well and truly gone watching him jump that trakehner! Loved the vlog and following your journey together from when you got him. Looking forward to seeing how far you can get together.

On the RoR point, if he hasn't been in training I'm pretty sure he won't be eligible, unfortunately. I'm not an expert but I have looked at the rules a few years ago, not sure if they might have changed in those years. You could pop him in a point to point to try and qualify him. Given the prize money is £50k it might be worth it! x
Evie you rode him like you stole him ,, he ate up that cross country course , I adore you £1 ginger giant , so nice to see someone that all the work is done by you , you have not spent a week with a top eventer, you are not a walking advert for Equine companies, having saddles, bridles, bits , thrown at you ,, like a breath of fresh-air .. looking forward to see what comes next ,,

Can't believe I haven't come across ELS eventing before! Absolutely loved the vlog.. you're so down to earth and relatable. He's worth a LOT more than £1 now, credit to you. My youngster is struggling with right canter transition but as you said with Donut, her right use to be her best canter and now it has switched. He LOVED the cross country, wow, its like he has done it all his life! Separate note, what do you use to pull his tail?
Ah welcome to the family, so pleased you enjoyed the vlog! Good luck with your young horse 🥰
Oh and I use clippers on the sides of his tail 🙈 and use a smart grooming rake on the top! X

He’s such a good boy!!
He definitely is! 🧡
Congratulations!!! I love seeing your partnership. What would have happened if he didn't handle the dog so well? Could you have been eliminated or faulted even though it was out of your control?
