- Last month I was very lucky to be able to use the gallops at Newmarket for a last little bit of pre-season fitness training with Laragh. I was met by Claudia (@claudiajessemac on Instagram) with her ex-racer Shark, watch to see how we got on!

Bless her heart she tried so hard.
I found myself holding my breath...several times as it was breathtaking to watch!
She has the heart of a racehorse for sure!!!
you prolly dont care but if you're stoned like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my gf lately xD
@Forest Andres Definitely, been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)
As i no longer ride now i'm 74 but spent 50 years riding my own horses and i now really miss it it was fantastic to watch you video it may me feel as though i was riding, thank you so much for your video
After a lifetime of riding & training, I'm no longer able to ride either. So I live vicariously through other riders. This would have been such fun! :)
I miss riding too. These videos gives me a taste of riding. I am hoping to ride some time this year.
I love when she’s like “I can’t pull up! Lura I thought you were tired!” 😂😂😂 thats such a horse thing to do. Girl you’re tired I can hear the struggle! Slow down. 😂😂
Literally 😂
@@footluceeventing tomorrow is my brothers birthday p's happy Halloween
Galloping a racehorse is the best feeling ever 🥰
I can’t wait to give my ex racer (who wasn’t fast enough bless her) to the gallops for a good proper blast
I’ve got two ex racehorses that just weren’t fast enough! They’re gorgeous horses aren’t they.
@@jenniferrebecca2813 definitely! 😊😊
This is amazing to see, Laragh tried so hard🥰 I’ve just got an ex racer from Newmarket and would absolutely love to take her for a gallop to see what she can do, she loves it🐎✨
She definitely enjoyed herself! Yes you totally should 😍
I’m from Newmarket and I got permission a few years back to ride my little 12.2 little welsh pony on the gallops. Was so much fun, but we had a lot of surprised looks lol 😂
You should go on the Newmarket Sponsored Ride, you ride all over Newmarket and the gallops. Happens every year :-)
@@kristin1980uk Oh wow this sounds great! I’ll have a look into that for sure, thank you🙌🤩
@@kristin1980uk This sounds brilliant, I’d love to do it, hopefully I can arrange something🐎👏
I love Laragh how she is like I will catch him then she is like maybe I won’t catch him but this is fun and I am loving that you are getting to experience all these new things with Laragh but it looked really fun
I’ve been wondering for the longest how speedy Laragh would fare against a thoroughbred! She didn’t win but she was determined!! This looked like so much fun and what a cool place to get a chance to ride at.
I think if it was a race of stamina and wills she probably would have won 😂 So much fun
for speed, a coldblood like laragh could never match even a too-slow tbred. the cold/warmblood has too high knee action for pace.. the grey looked to be doing only just 3/4 pace n laragh is still too fat..."very interesting breathing" from her, btw...a concern?
@@michelebourke4340 thanks for that, I had a rewatch of the side shot and it’s so true about the knee action. Makes sense 🙂
7:13 look at that sideways canter, a Dressage champ in the making! 😂
Oh my goodness I can't imagine how terrified I would be taking my OTTB to the gallops
Laura is trying so hard it’s so cute meanwhile the TB is like ah what a lovely day for a easy run
Lol she is like a little steam engine...she just doesn't want to stop! 🥰
Literally 🙈🙈
Lucy: Laragh I thought you were tired
Laragh: But I'm WINNING!
🤣
I'm guessing Ember would love this! 😋
Oh what a brilliant vlog Lucy!!💖 It was so great to see Laragh really open up and fly like the wind, she wasn't that far behind though, she did really great, as did you for managing to finally stop her!😂 It just shows how fit you really have got her for your event season hun. Great job, loved it!😘
Thank you! Yes she was probably 2 horses lengths behind up the climb, so not terrible! 💙
@@footluceeventing what do you think about some people saying jumping a horse is immoral and wrong and not natural im hearing this now plus bits being bad x ive never heard this until recently x
She is the most honest, genuine, kind mare ever. I am absolutely in love with her. What a gem!
Glad its not just my horse that doesn't believe in stopping lol
Shark attack! Laragh looking fresh as always 💛 Bonnie's greyed out so much, can't wait to see the vlog of her in hand at a show 🙃
That vlog may be sooner than you think!! 🙊
@@footluceeventing I'm here for the picking your showing outfit montage 💃🤣
Blimey Laragh did v well to keep up she wasn’t that far behind! She is vv speedy
she was trying her absolute hardest! She definitely had a blast!
Well done Lucy she done so well bless her
Sharky boy was leaving you guys for dust! 💨 Laragh wasn’t going down without a fight though was she! Looked amazing fun! Love a trip to the gallops!
She was so sad when he just whizzed past 😂😂 She’s always been the fastest!
Oh so wonderful!!! It's been over 30 years since I've ridden and this brings me back to my barrel racing days. I miss that power and propulsion and feeling my horse know exactly what she was doing. They are magnificent and noble animals. She wants to run her snorting, ears pricked and pulling on the rein.. love it!!!
if you’re driving near Newmarket along the a14, you can watch horses being exercised on the racetrack. it’s lovely to see. (they’re not far away at 8:22 ish)
I hope this story makes a few people laugh. My good friend owns a barn so that’s where I ride at. A few years ago she had gotten a 6 year old OTTB. Once it was spring we took them to their quarter mile track in the back yard. Our dumb minds thought it would be a good idea for her to canter off in front of us. She canters off and Bruce (the ottb) takes off in FULL speed. I go flying off backwards, frustrated but laughing. Why would we think it was a good idea to do that 😂 his first time back on a track too 🤦🏻♀️
That grey looks just like Joey, This Esme’s horse!
Yeah !
Ikr
She so loved that! She was like, "I don't care that I am tired, this is soooo much fun!!" You will need to take her more often.
Absolutely loved your video. Yes your girl has the racing spirit ! I love your trailer, how light it is & how it can be pulled by an suv/ opens from the side. Thanks for sharing from the U.S.
You're a brave lady! You showed no fear!!!
Too much fun!
I always thought she was super fast but bless her... the intention was there... you can see the striking difference and her powering flat out wishing herself to go go go, whereas bless him Shark looked as if he was casually running along, his sideways jog would've done great in a dressage arena hahaha!
I also laugh cause she doesn't stop 🤣🤣🤣
Random but I love your videos, always so honest and you're such a nice person, proper genuine and I also want to move to Norfolk lol! So much fun there with gallops, hunting, beaches etc etc!! (Bedford sucks lol!)
She tried her best but just couldn’t Pip Mr speedy 😂 Thank you! X
I once raced against a retired racehorse ( a 21 year old Anglo-Arab) with my 9 year old Welsh x Arab pony........for 5 glorious seconds I thought my little pony had beaten the old ex racehorse...and then his rider gave his horse a sign and that old racehorse took of flying; 2 seconds later we were eating his dust...damn that horse was fast, even at 21 years old......was a great race though :D
My little ex ranch horse hates to be passed on a gallop! He would have to learn to deal with it at Newmarket, ha ha!! But seeing as how we’re in Arkansas, we will just live vicariously through others 💕
Lara has unlocked Achievement: Lemme Run!
Lara Has unlocked Achievement 🎶I can't stop🎶
Really wel behaved the both of them, so exiting to watch from behind my computer!!!
Aweee that brought back very fond memories for me Lucy you really enjoyed that lovely gallop Laragh did amazing and I loved the grey. So loved my gallops on the track when I was young that was great to watch tfs.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed 💙
That looked like a lot of fun! Laragh must be more of a distance than a sprinter😁. I’m one of 4 who have a 6yo by Mahler that we’ve brought over from Ireland. He has done a few hurdle races and got his handicap and we were really hoping to ask him to knock on next race but we feel the ground is against him running again until next season. A summer chilling can only do him good as he’s a young 6 yo, foaled in June and we want to give him plenty of time. He’s a real sweetheart,so honest in his work and the jockeys gave him good report . It’s great fun up on the gallops early in the morning. They do shift a bit don’t they!
Sorry I rambled. 😏. Got excited seeing the gallops😃😃😃
She’s definitely more of a distance horse 😂 oh best of luck with Mahler! Sounds lovely x
Don't know who enjoyed that more Lucy 🤣. Unfortunately your commentary was lost in the wind but I bet it was priceless 👍
Yes it was a shame it was so blimmin’ windy! Maybe if I go again I’ll try mic myself up 😂
Great video. I love going to Newmarket Links. We're so lucky the Jockey Club allows us to ride there
What a lovely outing! You all had so much fun. She didn’t want to give up the lead at the end! As for form at the gallop, Pepper was the star, hands down. 😍 You Ladies are by far much better riders than I ever hoped to be. Up your game and ride on a loose(r) rein. Please. The horses will learn to be more relaxed and you’ll get smoother rides. If you watch the video and pay attention you’ll notice some of the head tossing. That will stop. It was by no means horrible, plus no tail swishing that I could see, but the head tossing tells that the horse is in discomfort from the bit on a short rein. I rode Paso Finos that are a lively breed. A slow walk isn’t in their vocabulary. I was taught to give more rein. It resulted in a calmer horse and a much improved gait. Try it for a couple of weeks, maybe a month, and see what happens. ♥️ It’s something different to do and could be fun/interesting to see how it goes.
Both of you have gorgeous horses. Thank you for taking me along with you.
Thank you so much for sharing this great ride. I loved seeing both perspectives....from on top and then seeing them from afar.
That looked like a lot of fun. Takes me back to the gallops with my horse Smokey. He would have loved that. He thought he was a racehorse. And he was fast enough.
Your mare loved that run. She would have went around again. Never jumped those fences, but would have liked to try it.
Thank you for sharing this video.
.
Must have been great fun! Have watched race-horses on those gallops, and Laragh gave a good impression of one!
She tried her best 😂 🐄 💨
Loved watching this. Brought back memories of my younger days. I can't ride horses now, but it's great to see the helmet-cam because it really feels like we are riding with you :-)
I imagine loading Laragh was another fun challenge. Video idea for next winter when many of us have the winter blues and need a laugh, blooper video of loading Laragh. You would have lots of material and you always handle it with such good humor.
Bonnie missed you. What a changed formerly wild pony. You have done a great job with her.
I think a loading video is a good idea 😂
Aw, this makes me miss having horses. What fun! Poor Lara, has the heart but not the speed. Goals! LOL
She’s so nice and straight A pleasant horse to watch
I love this beagle too🤗🥰
My friend and I took our horses - an Arabian and an OTTB - for runs like this some thirty years ago. Thanks for posting.
that looks like such glorious FUN!
What a fun vlog! Love your music selection for Charlotte's view of the gallop!! So cute also her pup run & jumping at her leash! Beautiful facility for all sorts of galloping. Laurghlee certainly seems fit & ready for eventing. Lots of fun with the different adventures you & Laurghlee takes us on. Thank you. Lol stay safe.🐎😎
Great I really enjoyed watching specially with the camera
Good morning from Australia. Currently 5.14am.
Edited to add that I do feel a bit jealous. Thanks for being one of my favourite channels.
Greetings from 6:32 pm Australia.
Love this! Thanks for watching 🥰
Greeting from 4:58pm Australia
greetings from the Netherlands, 3.52pm!
i own an ottb and hes so chill but then he gets in the this head space and hes back in the racehorse mode
Espero que sigas galopando así de divertido, gracias por compartir ese momento de felicidad
Felicidades
Wow this horse definately shows such a high enthusiasm and power to win😲👏👏👏
All the best content; Laragh and friend having a great time, super riding, a puppy cam and Bonnie! Well done on the hurdle!
I loved this video! What a star she is and obviously loved her gallop!
She's really pulling on the reins. That horse wants to go!
It looks like so much fun. My horses favorite words were Bongo,Run! I miss this!
This looks so fun!!
Dude this is awesome!👍
Such a cool video idea, loving all the new videos! Huge fan of your channel, have been for a while now, so happy that you're getting the recognition you deserve!!
Thanks so much! 💙💙
Me: Omg love this idea! I want too try it
also me: actually riding an ex racer
I use to dream about having a day like that with my mare. She had jockey club on sires side and grade appy on dams side. You could feel it in her bones though. Whirl away was her great grandfather on her sires side
Laragh (Laura?) did great she has a big heart! How fun for the both of you to be racing and just being carefree... good job!
Väga hea õppe video! Neile, kes ei tea hobustest veel midagi! Täname!!
i just got my first horse a few months ago and im taking her to the gallops soon
Ooohhhhh looks soooo fun
Great vlog. Loved the western style music it did make me laugh xx
Gosh both horses are gorgeous!!! I absolutely love thoroughbreds, they are my favorite breed!! 🥰❤️
You had sooo much fun!!!!
That looked so much fun, bet laraugh has the best time ❤️
Absolutely brilliant Lucy, what an awesome video 👍🐎❤ x.
Your so close to me I’m Cambridge the gallops is so much fun xx
Wish I could take my OTTB galloping it would be so fun. He wasn’t very good at racing but he had weak hindquarters and now he is so much stronger and more fit
are you in Ireland as in new market in Clare as I live in clare and I'm a huge fan!!! ❤❤❤
That was just fun to watch!
Lara was pretty fast to be fair!
Love it 😀💕
Looked amazing. 😀😍
Nice run
What saddle pad did your friend have on I love it xxxx
Oh I actually have no idea! Sorry not helpful 🙈🙈
Laragh her galop is my race horse his fast train galop and he can go way faster than his train galop, but he is on a break from racing cause he had an surgery 1 week ago (sorry for my bad english i'm french)
Yes...Go Galopp is a different to normal circle ridding
She has potential to be a track racehorse he has potential to be a cross country riding horse. ❤️🐎🏇🐴 thanks for sharing I miss riding when I’m not doing it. We are at home on a horse’s back aren’t we 🥰 peace ✌️ and Love ❤️
Lara I so cute and she definitely has the heart of a rase horse
Loved seeing my hometown in a video! If anyone in the local area is looking for any help with their horse please get in touch! I’m looking to have more riding in my week, I have been riding on and off for 15 years ☺️
Bonnie is so cute I love her
My QH mare and gelding would love to do this. Too bad we don't have any racetracks here in colorado open to the public
Did you wash them off and scrape them off ??
Yes of course! It was all hands on deck so no one to film sadly
Omg is this not where thoughts of bean’s bean and rider train
It is indeed!!
Yes!
She would be really good for racing
Looks amazing fun! 😍❤️💕
Really enjoyed that - you're all having so much fun and that's the key x
this is so fun
Looks like you both had so much fun! Laragh loves to run, doesn't she? 🏇🦄🥰💖
Done my stable management there..
Now that was exciting ! This is my first time watching....I'm subscribing. Beautiful horses too !
What a fantastic experience for you both... Having watched your team chase when you and Laragh seemed to be flying round the course and having to circle in order for your team mates to catch up, at the time Laragh did look fast... But in this vlog, she wanted to beat the racehorse, but he was too fresh and too fast for her... Maybe you'll get the chance to go again... How about a VE Squad day on the gallops? Just a thought... 🤔🐎🐴
When will you do a flatwork and polework video? Just asking as I'm returning to this in May 2021. Thanks 🐾🐴🇬🇧☺😍
