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 :)
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!
@@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
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!
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.
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!!!!
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!!!
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 ❤❤❤❤❤
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❤🎉
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
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!
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 😂
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. 💖 🇨🇦🇬🇧
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!
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 ❤
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!!!!
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!
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.
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
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! 😭❤
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!
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. 🎉🎉🎉
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
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!
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 ❤❤❤
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.
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)
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!
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 ♥️
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..
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!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
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
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.
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!
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 . 🎉❤
Sweet girl, it was an absolute joy to watch you. I love to see events where horse and owner just have fun and where you can see the love and friendship they have for each other. Well done, Meg❤ You must be knackered, so sleep for a week, and I look forward to your next adventure. Xx
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
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.
Defo had a few tears myself! This journey to badminton has been a truly raw and influential one to say the least. Major congratulations to you, your team and the girls, you knocked out of the park.
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
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

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!

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!!!
Meg this honestly gave me chills. You have come so far and it is so wonderful to see. Dee and Jam did so amazing, they really are the dream ponies! You have been my favourite youtuber for a while now. I have learned so much from your videos, been so inspired, and gotten many good laughs from them. Thank you for sharing this journey ❤
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!!❤
A huge congratulations Meg! The time and effort you put into both girls & YOURSELF payed off! Soo lovely to see you meeting all your supporters at the finish line! Xxxx
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 👏
Well done team, Didi, Jam and of course, Meg!! So proud of you and all you did to be here. Thanks for sharing all this with us, it is so great to see your journey!
What an amazing vlog series!!! I hope it gets nominated for awards - because honestly the arc is so emotional and heart-warming. Congratulations Meg! It has been so much fun to come along for the ride and I can't wait for what's up next!
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! 🥳🥳

Congratulations everyone!!! Meg what an amazing group of ppl you have to support you.. they jumped every jump with you..I'm beyond thrilled for you..and a new foal to top it off..what a ride..lots of love from me in aus..xxx
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! ❤️
after 22 years of riding i got tboned 4 years ago and havent ridden since, but watching your videos gives me such happy tears!! congratulations on taking on badders!!!! you all did great.
Awesome riding Meg. Shout to all your Mom, Han, Pete, Rich, Lucinda, Katie, Em and Tina for support. So happy you were able push through and a great outcome. Partial Jam but love Dee too.
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.
Congratulations Meg!! This video has really brought a good few tears to a lot of eyes, I’ve been following your journey for a few years now and watching your progress was absolutely amazing I among many others are so proud of you and the pony’s! So happy for you!! 🎉❤
What an incredible victory for you and the entire team Meg, congratulations. I'm in absolute tears watching all of this. What a journey you're on and such an incredible result at BADDERS! Hello?? Insane! Well done.
What an achievement; and look how confident you looked! You should really be proud. What an incredible team you have behind you as well, you are very lucky to have such wonderful friends and family. Huge well done! Xx
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 :)
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 ❤
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
I actually wanted to tell you today - at the meet and greet in Newbridge - that this is my go to video (along with LoR and Dune) when I’m feeling a bit down and miserable. It gives me all the feels. So thanks for that 👍👍👍👍
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! 😘
WELL DONE MEG! when i was watching this I cried so much I am so proud and everyone is supporting you! Cant believe both giles got to top 10!!!! AHHHHHHH. nothing better than a pub dinner, celebrate as much as you can! so proud! I look up to you so much!!!!! get well Pete xx
Meg, you made those difficult lines look easy. Great job Meg. I knew you could do it! Now you need to remember, YOU CAN! Great team. Congratulations to you Meg and to your great team!
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!!!!!! 🐎🐎💖💖💖💖💖💖
Congratulations, Meg!!!!! Inside the top 10 with both horses is absolutely awesome...You worked incredibly hard to get to this point, enjoy as much of it as you possibly can. I've been watching your channel for quite a while now, and I've seen you go through some highs, and lows, and there was never any doubt in my mind that you would get to a point where you accomplished something like this. Your determination is admirable, and so is your willingness to work hard for what you want to achieve. Thank you for sharing so much of your journey with all of us out here rooting for you. You're someone all those young riders that watch you can look up to, and so can those of us that are a bit older. I really admire how you've kept going forward in the face of adversity. One foot in front of the other. It's what gets us from one day to the next. You have an indomitable spirit. Everyone being there to support you was wonderful!!! They're all amazing people, and you're so fortunate to have them in your life. They all deserve recognition from those of us that watch you for what they've done to help you get where you are today. They are a fantastic group of people. You are so fortunate to have them in your corner.😊❣️
You’ve worked so incredibly hard to get here this year, what a fantastic and so well deserved result! For you, for your ponies, and for the support network that pulled together for you as well. Such a great journey to watch!
I love how Lucinda is always there for you at Badminton. You truly blossom under her coaching.
Totally agree , 💯
Me too 👍 …
So much respect.
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

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 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 :)
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’re so incredibly brave and confident to jump after that incident.
Congrats on everything Meg!
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!

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!
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. 🎉🎉🎉
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
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!
No matter how many times I watch thisni always cry! Just epic stuff meg
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 ❤❤❤
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.
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)
Best vlog ever every pony girl has to has a Pete by their side and a family like yours well done Meg
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 ❤️
Meg that was brilliant confidence boost and that is what you needed well done Dee & Jan & All
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 ♥️
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..
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! 🎉
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!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
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

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 . 🎉❤
Oh my goodness I'm not even sure why but I was on the verge of tears of happiness the whole video
Sweet girl, it was an absolute joy to watch you. I love to see events where horse and owner just have fun and where you can see the love and friendship they have for each other.
Well done, Meg❤
You must be knackered, so sleep for a week, and I look forward to your next adventure. Xx
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
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.
Defo had a few tears myself! This journey to badminton has been a truly raw and influential one to say the least. Major congratulations to you, your team and the girls, you knocked out of the park.
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
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

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!

Meg this honestly gave me chills. You have come so far and it is so wonderful to see. Dee and Jam did so amazing, they really are the dream ponies! You have been my favourite youtuber for a while now. I have learned so much from your videos, been so inspired, and gotten many good laughs from them. Thank you for sharing this journey ❤

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! 🥳🥳
The preparation of both ponies for this event is such a feather in your cap. Both looking keen and ready for another at the end. Well done!
The meeting of the mares was great! Clearly they were asking each other how you rode LOL!
Meggy you are incredible, thank you for being so real and raw and not sugar coating things. Horses really are the most emotional roller coasters!
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
Congratulations everyone!!! Meg what an amazing group of ppl you have to support you.. they jumped every jump with you..I'm beyond thrilled for you..and a new foal to top it off..what a ride..lots of love from me in aus..xxx
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! ❤️
after 22 years of riding i got tboned 4 years ago and havent ridden since, but watching your videos gives me such happy tears!! congratulations on taking on badders!!!! you all did great.
Awesome riding Meg. Shout to all your Mom, Han, Pete, Rich, Lucinda, Katie, Em and Tina for support. So happy you were able push through and a great outcome. Partial Jam but love Dee too.
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.
Congratulations Meg!! This video has really brought a good few tears to a lot of eyes, I’ve been following your journey for a few years now and watching your progress was absolutely amazing I among many others are so proud of you and the pony’s! So happy for you!! 🎉❤
My favourite video of yours yet 🥹 so emotional, amazing Dee is going to be a mama!!!! Huge congratulations Meg, no one deserves it more xxx❤
GOOD JOB MEGGY!! I'm so proud of you, you did an AMAZING job. Fantastic showing, lovely ponies and lovely smiles!
What an incredible victory for you and the entire team Meg, congratulations. I'm in absolute tears watching all of this. What a journey you're on and such an incredible result at BADDERS! Hello?? Insane! Well done.
What an achievement; and look how confident you looked! You should really be proud. What an incredible team you have behind you as well, you are very lucky to have such wonderful friends and family. Huge well done! Xx
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 ❤❤
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 :)
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! 😊
Gosh, I'm so proud of you Meg! What a journey!! The highs, the lows of this season really do make the rewards so much sweeter!!
Your hard work paid off, your mentors were awesome, and the horses worked so well for you all!! Good show!!!
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 ❤

Congratulations, Meg!!!!! Inside the top 10 with both horses is absolutely awesome...You worked incredibly hard to get to this point, enjoy as much of it as you possibly can.
I've been watching your channel for quite a while now, and I've seen you go through some highs, and lows, and there was never any doubt in my mind that you would get to a point where you accomplished something like this. Your determination is admirable, and so is your willingness to work hard for what you want to achieve.
Thank you for sharing so much of your journey with all of us out here rooting for you. You're someone all those young riders that watch you can look up to, and so can those of us that are a bit older. I really admire how you've kept going forward in the face of adversity. One foot in front of the other. It's what gets us from one day to the next. You have an indomitable spirit.
Everyone being there to support you was wonderful!!! They're all amazing people, and you're so fortunate to have them in your life. They all deserve recognition from those of us that watch you for what they've done to help you get where you are today. They are a fantastic group of people. You are so fortunate to have them in your corner.😊❣️
You’ve worked so incredibly hard to get here this year, what a fantastic and so well deserved result! For you, for your ponies, and for the support network that pulled together for you as well. Such a great journey to watch!
