Wow! He is incredible. So athletic, it must feel like sitting on a powder keg. Well ridden. Considering how busy the yard is he has an amazing head on him.
Horses come into our life for a reason 🥰 he doesn’t look at fillers etc you guys will have fun xx
I’m so excited to see Embers journey honestly found a one in a million horse!
I loved him at his first appearance on your channel and with every vlog featuring him, I seem to love him more and more. He's a total star and you are doing a super job with him; just riding really beautifully; so calm and positive. It also really warms my heart to see him so happy and relaxed. He strikes me as a kind fellow, but a bit anxious and I think he's living his best, happy life with you and loving the work! Plus he's so good at it and so smart! You really can't beat the brain of a clever TB and he's very bright! ❤
Haven't gotten past the warm up yet but I love how soft, calm and patient you and your trainer are with Ember.
Oh my goodness I love him, he try’s so hard 🥰
I can't wait for him to settle in and harness his natural talent. He's going to be unbeatable! Love the baby phase, though, where he seems to be asking with each step if you want 110% effort. lol He's so cute! A little Ember glowing bright!
I’m so in love with him 😍he is flying!!
🚀
Well he can jump. He looked so good. Especially in that weather. Well done Lucy.
I just think Ember is the loveliest horse! He is just so much fun to watch I cannot imagine how much fun he is to ride. Everything seems so effortless for him. I am so happy you bought him and am looking forward to more videos of the two of you. He seems to make you so happy!!
Fantastic little horse, well ridden , great hands
Thank you 😊
I think buying Ember was exactly what you needed... a green horse that you could work with. Sometimes we all need something new in our lives. Best of luck with your new boy.
It looks like Ember "likes" his new job, what a great find, Lucy. Best of luck!
8:42 to 9:05 as you went into the canter track on the right lead, he was perfect front and back, and as you both went around the hill, he looked like he started bouncing a bit, and he came out at the bottom, disunited at the back 🙂. He kinda looked like he was trying to bounce his front end into left lead. I also love the way he turned into a stag at 13:31 with extra leg lift and extra flicky toes.
Ember is just precious! It seems like you’re not gonna have any “stopping” or ducking out with this dude. I ❤️ him and so happy he found his way to Justine and you!! He looks very happy 😊
When you first start retraining them the biggest asset of an Ottb is their forwardness. The biggest draw back is their forwardness.
As a rider you have to learn to trust yourself to ride and control it at the same time.
That session showed your on the right track.
Ember has something about him. Once he figures things out he makes it look easy. You are going to have great fun together.
Yes 100% agree!
So exciting!! You were an absolute super star riding!! And the lovely, thoughtful Paul Kennedy is amazing! Just what was needed. Thank you for this vlog!!
Thanks so much for the lovely comment 🥰
Eeeeeppp!! I love him! Such a good boy and sooo brave! 🥰👍🧡
Ember gets better and better, each vlog. He’s incredible Lucy. He looked like he enjoyed that. He really is a superstar. You’re going to go far with him. I love watching the two of you learn together I loved how smiley you were xx
Aww thank you very much! Can’t help but smile 😊
Your lesson went great, Lucy. You and Ember rode well, and you could certainly see his excitement in jumping. Ears forward, he was relaxed both you and Paul were calm, and Ember was having the best time. I love the way he flicks his legs, and he was certainly listening and giving you 100%. He is a super star 🌟 🤩
Thanks so much! He is a ⭐️ 😍
So pleased for you Lucy…you make a fabulous pair. Footluce and Twinkletoes 😄
Oh my god I love him he was like YE LETS RACE MUM!! 🤣 HES JUST BLOODY STUNNINGGGG. Such big expressive movements too for such a little horse he's so fit! Xx
Absolutely loving your and Ember's adventures. Beautiful riding too Lucy, so calm and gentle.
This is just so fun to watch because I feel like this is a perfect match. I swear I can feel the love already between you and Ember.
Aww thank you. He’s such a lovely boy 💙
Ember is an amazing horse. You've got something very special with him. Good job buying him when you had the chance to do so, because he has everything you want in a horse that's going to do eventing. Just watching him move, he's incredible. He likes what he's doing, he wants to do it, and like the instructor said, you can't put that into a horse. Ember clearly has that special something, and I'm glad you bought him when you had the chance to, because we get to watch him, and see how he progresses. I think his prior owners recognized that he's got that special something, thankfully, and you were in the right place at the right time. What an awesome little horse you've got!!!!!
What a lovely little horse Ember is, sweet temperament & l love the way he flicks his toes out & well done you & Justine for seeing the potential in him, you will have so much fun with him 😊
He is such a lovely boy loves his job, as Paul said he sees the fence and his ears prick forward and so athletic over the fence. Well done Lucy it was a windy wet day and you rode him so quietly.💕
So glad you're happy with Ember, and both of you gaining mutual trust. He looked fantastic when he relaxed and lengthened his neck a bit more. Great job Lucy!
Ember is a wonderful little horse, his ears were pricked and so enthusiastic. Great lesson and I cannot wait to see how you both progress 🥰
I think what I'm loving seeing is your confidence blossom with him 🥰 I've been watching your vlogs and Back To Basics/Swipe Up for a while now and I've always thought you a very capable rider but has anxious tension which works against your goals when in the saddle (I hope that's a fair comment, it's not meant as shade!!) But even in this lesson, you could see how you relaxed and trusted him and he softened and gave you a really good ride. I'm really going to enjoy watching your progress together! Xx
Lucy you two are going to go SO far!!! He is incredible
When you both jumped the oxer I had such a big smile on my face for you! Nice to see the little horse enjoying life, he’s looking so well also 🤩
Oh he’s such a lovely boy Lucy x
Well done!
I swear all ex racehorses start off like this, he’ll be perfect in a few months! They just need time to change shape. My two ex racehorses were exactly the same as Ember except they wouldn’t canter on the right lead and Ember doesn’t want to canter on his left 😂 good luck with him he has a lovely attitude!
Yes 100% he’s still figuring out what I’m asking, but such a quick learner! Thanks for watching 🙏
Omg Lucy he’s epic!! What a good chap to take it all on his stride. Really love him 😍
Way to go Lucy and Ember! That WAS a PROPER oxer - for sure! I'm in love with him already - he looks so smart with the clip you've given him too!
P.s. Links please Lucy - when you've got a minute or two
He has so much potential it will be amazing to see him progress over time 😍
Oh wow 🤩! He is a little ginger pocket rocket isn’t he! I love him Lucy! He’s going to awesome at eventing. He’s a very keen jumper & bold too!! X
That was a totally awesome vlog. What an amazing horse he is and I'm so excited to see how you both progress. You can see how much he loved jumping
Ahh thanks Wendy 😊
What a horse! To see him standing and then moving, my word, what a difference. He literally transforms into a lovely orb of graceful motion. So amazing to hear the joy in your voice, I am so pleased for you! AND he is so smart, and so interested in what he is doing! I swear he looks like a different horse when he is with you. Damn, so excited, I must watch again! Oh yes, the lesson was brilliant and the photography was excellent.....thank you both! I have a question for Justine. How did you know ? What instinct did this little fella trigger? Whatever guided you to make this match up, well done! Well done!
He is SO INCREDIBLE and so proud of you both he did AWESOME!! 🧡🧡💚🍏💖💖♥️♥️💕🐴✨💞🐴🐴💜💜💖💚💕💕🐴✨🌈🌈💜💖💙💙😆🧡⭐️⭐️🌈🤍💜💖💚♥️❣️
I can see how laraugh prepared you for him. You handled it great when his blood went up. Expect to have these moments with a OTTB but it gets better & more manageable. Your not a emotional rider so you'll be fine! I'm really looking forward to watching all the vlogs with him. I come from a racehorse family, my father a jockey & my brother, I'm a trainer . Not everyone is cut out for a thoroughbred but you got this!
He’s simply avoiding currently with all that flex and running off. What a fabulous animal. Must allow his movement and again not be afraid of the longer ones !
My absolute favorite videos are the ones where ponies are being trained and learning what things the rider needs to pay attention to help the horse learn.
Also, his right leg goes so much further than his left when walking, trotting, and cantering. Maybe it's the angle. He seems to reach with it.
Wow! I can’t wait to watch you two!! You’re such a lovely quiet rider Lucy
Wow that horse can move!!!! Wow wow wow....... Love him love watching you two just fab!!!
Lovely lesson to watch. You both make a great team. Love the jump over the blue poles at the start you'll have no problems with ditches 😀
Well, it certainly looks like he's not depressed any more. He's enjoying his work. This little horse could take you places, Lucy. Still green and excitable, but he has the paces (what a walk!) the expression, the athleticism, the jump and the speed to make a very nice event horse indeed. He looks very smart when he's under saddle. Your vlogs always make my day. Thank you, Lucy. Wishing the two of you much success.
Well ridden, Luci. Oops! That’s why I’ve never had just 2 poles. My boy would hurdle them. Ember is so lucky to have such a sensitive rider like you. Ember was so ready to do an 8 furlong dash for you but you gently eased him into doing something new for him. Love it❤️
I mean having more than 2 doesn't stop them
@@NoThankUBeQuiet True. I would get combinations of, over the first then launch the last two or hurdle first two and clatter the last 🤣. Three made him think more and he would figure it out, bless him. Maybe it’s because he was Welsh. He did poles Bear stylie 🤣 (see Elphick Event Ponies)
He is absolutely amaaaazing Lucy!!!! Cannot wait to see more of him!
Thanks for watching 🥰
Wow a future superstar! The boys got scope! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🥰💕
Aw he’s lovely, and you ride him so well
Wahoo!! Ember the Rockstar! I think your last two lessons progress are about 1 year of lessons progress for the rest of us! Pocket Rocket with movement with a brain! Jackpot! LOVE these vlogs and lessons!
Signed the boring AA low level dressage and walking trail rider-

Omg Lucy Ember was soooooo good he’s got a lovely jump in him. You rode him beautifully I think you both match up very well. I adore him he’s so very willing a typical tb which you know I love them. I m excited for you both that’s for sure and love seeing how happy you are this was lovely to watch.tfs😎🏇😎
Omg so INCREDIBLE! Whoop whoop 🙌🏻 🧡⭐️⭐️🧡🤍✨💜🐴♥️✨💗💙❣️💙🌈💕🧡⭐️⭐️🤍💜🐴🐴💜✨💕💕💗❣️❣️🌟🌟💞💗❣️🧡💕💚💖🐴♥️✨🤍🤍💕💗🌈❣️💚🧡🧡✨🐴🐴♥️✨🧡💙💙💙🌟🌈🤍✨♥️🐴🐴💜🧡🧡🌈🌈🌟🌟🌟💗
"we got some steering issues" i felt that
Glad he is the size he is because he is HOT! Talented, sweet, super sensitive pocket rocket that is going to be amazing. He is really, really lovely and I am so glad you found each other. He will reward you in spades for being his person. A horse like that, with the wrong person it could have ended so wrong and it would not have been his fault. YAY!!!!! PS the canter track is genius. I need the canter track in my life.
Love Ember! Such a brave and clever little dude! 😍
He is amazing 🥰. Can’t wait to follow ur journey with him. He looks so happy and willing to do what you ask.
Really looking forward to following your adventures together. He's come so far in such a short space of time. Amazing little horse, what a team you're going to be! Well done Lucy, you must be so proud xx
Thank you! I’m really excited about him 😍 he’s such a trier and just a lovely boy 🧡
I can't decide if he didn't know what to do with his feet or he just has so much natural athletic talent he enjoyed changing legs every few seconds. He was epic by the end!
Aahhh!! He's so beautiful!
I'm so happy for you Lucy that you got him.
Ce petit cheval est génial ! Tu montes bien et j'ai hâte de voir votre évolution !🙌
Oh my god he is SO adorable! Well done, Lucy! So wonderful to see.
What a wonderful pony!! Such a good boy! And you Lucy did very well, especially with that weather 😱😱(and the other horse in the background 😅). 👏
He is stunning. This one is going to be something special - listen up Harry and Laragh lol. Truly loving watch him come along and he looks GREAT.
Ooo I love him, watching him makes me smile. Such a sweety
He is so lovely, i love his energy. And great to see how quiet how stay!
The flare over the trot poles 😍 He’s going to be such a great all rounder. I’m excited to see his dressage tests.
Hes going to be a real Lucy what a super sensitive but so talented boy you have xx
damn theres potential galore in him.. what a cool lil guy!
I have to say very impressed. I have a boy that is identical or was, in attitude, from drifting to leg pic up in canter etc. He is ubber intelligent and his brain never switched off and I can without a doubt say your boy is too. Interested to know his breeding. Not in to jumping for years more dressage so not fully aware of this trainer but he is bloody awesome. So calm and right. I love your horse
A little guy with a very big heart. Love him (-: Marion
Yes, a big "well done!" to Ember! I love Ember's walk. Well, everything about his movements but his walk is...strong, yet soft. It shows purpose. I don't know if that makes sense. Anyway!.....I think the both of you will be an excellent eventing combo in due time. Keep it up!!! Stay safe.💙😎🐎
Aw, look at him. He´s having a lot of fun!
Wow! What a winner! So eager to please and I think very happy to be learning something new and challenging. Once he really figures things out he's going to be unstoppable in the best way. So happy for you!
Absolutely love this little horse, he has some pop to him, ye are brilliant together, well done
I really love these new vlogs with Ember. He's so cute and it's so obvious how much you enjoy riding him! 😍
He is such a smart little horse! Love watching you ride and learn with him! I absolutely adore him haha! I think he’s got such a great character. Big heart for a wee chap ☺️😍can’t wait to see how you guys get on!
You do so well with him! What a buzzy little bean! ❤️🥰❤️
He is going to be a blast!!! What a good boy😁. Thoroughbreds are so much fun!
Love this horse and you're riding him great!
So fun to watch him and you! Exracers are so rewarding. Look forward to following your journey 😊
Lovely, lovely horse. I hope you take him to Camp this summer. Or take Harry. I can see Ember and Ari on the beach someday with you and Meg.
In love with this little horse!
He’s so sweet!! You look so happy on him!! Can’t wait to see what you two get up to! Xxx
I’m so happy! 😍
I'm not a tb fan but my o my that little horse is a joy watch, u r a great combo to watch, well done, can't wait to c u out eventing x
He looks like so much fun! I love OTTBs! He's going to be a blast once he figures out his feet!
He'a so lovely!!! Feeling more than a twinge of envy.
so not surprised you just said I'm buying that horse. love him
My duaghter's trainer (who is a great dressage trainer for us) says that what she loves about TBs is that they remember what they've learned. She says Warmbloods have to be reminded (sometimes retaught) after breaks. Not the TBs!
But a blaze and 3 socks om him it could be my little tb (156 cm). So alike in their movements and the flicky legs, loss of steering and in my case loss of brakes out hacking. It will be exciting to follow you two in future 🙂.
I have loss of brakes out hacking too don’t worry 😂 working on that bit… thanks for watching!
Paul Kennedy he is AMAZING 💜💙💗💜✨🌈🧡🧡🌈💜❣️❣️💕💖🙌🏻💞💚💖⭐️💖❣️💗♥️🤍✨🌈🧡🌟🧡🌈✨✨🌈🧡💙💙💜💜⭐️💖💕💞💞⭐️💖🤍✨🌈🌟🐴🌈✨🌈🧡🌟🐴✨🤍💜💗💜🤍💚❣️💞🌈🧡🌟🧡🌈✨🤍💜🤍💖💚💕❣️
