    An hour-long vlog, Jammy looking beautiful against the green grass and yellow dandelions, the return of Pete's Eats, *plus* a great result - what a treat for all of us! Congrats and well done on dealing with less-than-optimal conditions :D

    Well ridden considering the lack of opportunities for events and the excitement Jam had. Lovely to watch.

    It hilarious to see you chatting away after the cross country while your mum is working away getting studs out and washing Jam down in the background - I know that isn't how you operate, Meg, but it is cute how great your mum is at letting you do your thing while industriously taking on all the grooming etc

    LOVE the judges comments on screen, just would love some more time to read the end comment! (I’m too busy drooling over Jammy to read fast 😅) Would love a pre-Badders breakdown of all the different gear you use and why you use it! Bits, bridles, nosebands, boots, all of it! 🤩

    I just love every single video you put out, Meg!
    I appreciate how much you give credit to your horses, but you have to give yourself some credit too! ❤ You rode well, the hiccups were not as big as you thought! 🥰
    I do love that the focus is on Jammie, and her performance, which is what I love about your channel - especially when in some upper level dressage it's all about the rider. Oh and "the horse" 😢
    Your passion and very obvious love for your horses shines the most, keep up the great work, Meg 😊❤️

  • @patbroekema6721
    @patbroekema6721 7 місяців тому

    I feel so proud of you as I watch you gallop around the xc course, doing what you love even though you are nervous. Fear from falling off your horse is a very real liability that takes time and courage to handle. I suffered a brain injury from a fall 9 years ago. I have learned to be more careful and aware of myself and my horse and my surroundings while riding. It made me ‘ sharper’ which in turn has built my confidence. You’re doing so well Meg. Be kind to yourself - you deserve support from yourself.❤

    Well done!! The mental thing about dwelling on mistakes is not uncommon, especially when you truly care and want always to do/be your best, which you clearly do. Maybe treat yourself the way you would treat others and be a bit more forgiving of your mistakes, learn from them, then let them go. We are always our worst critics. You are a really lovely rider.

    @Golden1989-days 7 місяців тому

    Just rewatched this vlog. What a brilliant start to your season plus a huge boost for Badders 👏👏
    I took on board your issue regarding the one chip in early on the course that took your attention.
    I just remembered some points that Lucinda, Piggy and other eminent riders have coached you with and I only repeat them to you to try and encourage your positive thoughts.
    So, as I recall, strong forward working canter, aim for the centre of the flags as best, let the horse read the fence and get involved when you know there are “tricks” coming up, shoulders back, head up (do not look down), heels down, keep your feet in front of your hips, strong fingers on the reins but don’t fix your hands on the horses neck, and keep very giving elbows.
    I believe it was mentioned jump one fence at a time and let go as soon as it is jumped to allow you both to focus on the next fence.
    You’ve done all the hard work and you are both looking great. Deep breath and kick on. Best of luck 🤞

    Well ridden Meg, in very sub-optimal conditions! Love that Jammy too! She's a star. You've brought her along beautifully and she's a super girl. I had you pegged for a better score than your "support" network, haha (but I love Hobbit and Pete and it's always wonderful to see Hobbit out and I love her commentary and just like that, Pete's become a proper cinematographer, but I'm super glad he's still food criticing on the side!). I also love the addition of the comments box during your tests! Great and innovative idea!

Thank you very much Megan for all your hard work and for inviting us to be a part of horsey life❤. You spread joy and goodness into this word, honesty, life as it is, with all the ups and downs. Love it❤. And that visual quality, as well as the quality of the sound in the vlog: WOW!!!! Well done Pete, SUPER 😊!
    TAKE CARE. Go see a doctor if your migraine gets any worse. Please. 🙏 I am sorry that you have to suffer all that pain, Meg. It is exhausting. 💕

    Also a lot of respect for you vlogging with a Migraine. I’m just coming out of one and slightly struggling to watch this - but I can’t wait! You probably know this but attempting to avoid triggers- certain foods, stressors, and also your cycle can be factors 🙄

  • @jjrides
    @jjrides 7 місяців тому

    What a fantastic start, congrats!! I think the jumping was great, you rode to the conditions and what your horse was feeling :) And I know, comments on the internet, just take with a grain of salt, but something my dressage coach told me recently (and has helped me with every horse but particularly, control my bold, fairly newly off the track pony) is to half halt with their hind leg foot fall, either rein with either foot, to balance them and get them to sit onto that particular leg, and I cannot believe how much it has changed my riding (after 28 yrs competing sj/eventing) it also makes me stop pulling so much (and brings them back way better) because I tend to hold way too much, because I have to kind-of time the half halts to their rhythm. Anyway, sorry for the essay/masterclass, I'll shurrup now lol! CONGRATS!!!

    Well done! I think you are right about the stickiness. It must have been a little scary in the beginning cross country. but by the end you were letting her out and both of you seem to be enjoying yourselves. And a second place! I think you are right too. Jam seems to thrive on the bigger fences and the more difficult questions. She can certainly do Badders 100.

Anyway, it would be an easy approach and easy to solve, if that’s the case, and worth a try. Hope you feel better!!! And congrats to you and Jam. She’s a gem!💎(Gemima! Haha!)💗

    So chuffed for you, Meg!! You really started to ride more positively after that blue haywagon, and it showed! Jam got you out of some sticky situations once again, but that's not because of how you presented the fence to her, but more because of ground conditions, I think. But all in all, a solid Dressage, a solid Show Jump round and a Clear in X Country!! Giving you the Second place!! Congratulations!! With so many events canceled, and this being her first outing, you were wise to do the BE90. I personally think you would have been overwhelmed doing a BE100 straight out off. Again, congratulations on your 2nd place finish.Jam, once again, was the legend she normally is!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic, Horse Trainer and former FEI Judge
