I still can't get over the fact that you have only had him in training with you for what, two years? That says a LOT about both of you!

DutchMilkMaid I’m an occasional volunteer for events like this in the UK and it’s insane the amount of planning and organising that goes into it - the safety aspect especially is paramount! Nothing is more satisfying than seeing an event that you’ve been a part of go off without a hitch and to see everyone enjoy themselves, competitors, animals and spectators alike!
I wonder if they know just how good they are, and just how proud we are of them. 💛

Paratenic Host They know when they’ve done themselves proud. Sharpie looks like a living flame. He’s such a looker.
Everyone: Saying compliments and how satisfying the vid is Me: Wondering how long it takes for people to make and figure out the courses Btw love your vids and he looks so smooth :o

Nice course, great run and good to see the spectators but am I hearing someone blowing a whistle throughout most of your ride? He handled that attacking golf cart monster very well! Thanks again for letting us come along!

Thanks for the info; the whistle used this way is new to me. I don't know about Sharpie but I sure find it annoying (it means stop play to me).
people who have the opportunity to ride all the time are so lucky I want this with all my heart.
Your helmet cams are such a delightful watch every time, and it's so nice to see that Sharpie obviously enjoys this! Also love getting the opportunity to learn more about eventing from you and your commenters!
He seems like he has SUCH a smooth & comfortable jump
I don’t have many thing’s that excite me anymore, but your riding being one with your horses is so exciting and beautiful. Thank you for this fabulous run this morning. Made my day.. Love you💕

Couldn’t relate more. Watching videos like these make me less anxious, they’re very helpful and I’m pleased to see many people uploading these kind of videos.
The lighting the quality the smoothness of the ride, this video is definitely my favourite, I'm in love! I feel like it gives such a great portrayal of sharpie's personality too!
I just adore him. There’s something really special about him. Go Sharpie!
Who else loves the sound of hooves hitting the ground with such amazing rythem
Aww his ears were forward the whole time 😍😍
The quality of this video is amazing. It almost seems like a different angel even. He did so well!!! Go Sharps!!!
He enjoyed that ears pricked listening well, jumping smart. Love watching these I pretend I'm the jockey 😁
He was amazing! He handled the atmosphere so well. You two have such a wonderful partnership, it’s great to see him stepping up and doing so brilliantly. You must be so proud
I love that fact that you always pause him to encourage him. I also love the bond you guys have and how wonderful this course was done with you two
Elisa:"Steady." Subtitles (3:25):"Daddy" I CANT I DIDN'T EVEN MEAN TO HAVE SUBTITLES ON AND I SAW THAT LOLL.
Love how you encourage your boy all the way through! Those turns.....yikes!! I’d be so lost! 🤣
He was so relaxed. What a n amazing team
The thing I love about him is he always has his ears pricked forward and always flicks one ear back to listen to you
I WATCHED YOU you passed right bye me I said hi and was soo excited I was at that crossway by the tailgates
He made that look so effortless! Good boy!
Wow this was absolutely incredible to watch! I love how you speak to him the whole way through- amazing round! PS: Some of those jumps gave me major butterflies 🦋
Your lungs are incredible!!! Never heard you out of breath! In my late 40s I learned I have a vocal cord disorder so I finally understand why I was out of breath riding cross country as a kid- it doesn't open to allow breathing every time. Anyway yay you! Great job. Thanks.
The feeling of getting the stride just perfect is the best feeling ever ❤️
I love red hills! Volunteering there is amazing. I was there this year and probably saw you riding! Luv your videos💜

“nice and relaxed ok?” I say that to my horse too. Buts I never said he listens
Great ride, sharps looked confident and happy!
That was Class 🌟🌟🌟⭐ I have just re-watched this. Sharpie has come such a longway in 12 months. To think of some of his crazy longones and how you had to keep his head up. Don't think we heard one tap of a hoof. He will learn so much from that run. You 2 are on a path to something special.
Awesome job you guys! Sharpie such a big boy! Love seeing the after xc part. 😊 so great with the crowd, whistles, etc. so very proud of you! Great job Briggs!
Wow, Sharpie handled the crowd very well. Such a good learning experience for our favourite redhead. I do hope everything went well with Riot Gear and Sharpie last week. I didn't get to catch the end results, but I'm sure they did fine.
Thanks so much for leaving in the debrief, it was so interesting to hear!
Everything about this video is satisfying; the steady sound of hoofbeats, the sound of the horse just letting out that sharp exhale every so often, the way you encourage him, your shadow, and just the way he made it over those jumps so perfectly.
I can no longer ride because of back trouble, so when I searched and found this video, it felt (to a point) like I was experiencing your ride. Of course, I never jumped at this level by any means. I miss riding so much. Sharpie is a great horse and you have trained him well. Thank you for the video.
He's come such a long way! This round was absolutely beautiful to watch. Thank you! I like the new gopro too. Maybe a tad too much of a "fish eye" effect and the sound was a little strange, but I like it 👍
Im not an English rider but i have to say he moves so nicely
I teared up watching this run- Sharpapotomus has had a real breakthrough in his confidence with skinnies and corners. He absolutely killed it, handled the big atmosphere and hardly broke a sweat!!! My Favorite Sharpie!!! Warhorses are worth it!!!🏆🧡👨🏻🦰🐴
I just love watching his little happy ears throughout the course
What a star!!! Love that horse
It's wonderful to see all of your hard work with Sharpie paying off! Congratulations to both of you!
I love how you were comforting him at the beginning 🥺 I feel like it’s so important when your working with a partner 🥺💖🐴✨
"He's like racecourse, I've got this." I have to say that, on the straightaways, his breathing & ears felt like you were riding a racehorse. His energy is so different then. I understood why you had to remind him "steady" frequently. What a great ride.
I love that you are not only showing us when you ride but you're also showing us what you do afterwards 😍❤️
BE eventing has just been cancelled on the uk! These videos will be the only things keeping me going c
He really stepped up to the plate! well done Elisa and Sharpie!!
I'm not sure why but this video made me tear up a little, the obvious pride in your voice and the words of encouragement, his ears pricked and looking so happy the whole time. You guys are fantastic! keep doing what you are doing. xx
I could sleep to the sound of a horse galloping.😍
If you watch from 4:53 to 5:00 you can really see how his strides changed before that jump. Like, those two strides before the jump became really long and in my opinion, strong! Edit: if you can’t tell the difference try looking at his shadow!
What a good boy! Nicely ridden, Elisa, you're such an inspiration.
I need a Sharp Decision shirt!!! LOVE SHARPIE!
Oh my god! Im a jumper and I literally admire eventers! Takes so much guts! I get nervous watching you go over some of those jumps! Amazing!
The jumps look so smooth!!! Amazing!
Awesome ride! The helmet cam makes me feel like I’m riding the horse myself. Thanks so much for sharing with us!
Im sure a lot of people have mentioned this but I really appreciate you keeping the camera on for the chat and untack! Go Sharpie go! Great job you two :)
The camera angle is crazy, it makes everything look so small that you look at lol. I thought the stall must be really tiny until Sharpie walked in and I was like "wow, he looks tiny too." 😆
It’s a truly amazing thing! I’m loving watching your videos here in the Uk! You have amazing talent and talented horses that you let do their job without fuss. It is beautiful to watch and a privilege, many thanks x
So good to see the both of you out having fun . He handled the course like a champ
I love hearing the hooves click 😂😂😂😂
Just the fact that you two connected soooo good! Is just awesome! You two did it great❤️
Sharpie is a cute name for this horse I Just adore him♥️
He looked so excited and I was so caught up in his jumps I started cheering for him and 11:30 pm
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! I went to the Red Hill trials and watched you compete!!!!!!! It was absolutely amazing. It was my first time ever going and I thought it was so cool I was able to watch you compete!!!!!! You're a big inspiration to me! I also like to do cross country on my retired race horse.
The washer mate was explaining his round “yaahyahhyahh” “waaahh” “chooom”
Beautiful Ride. A pleasure to watch. 🦄🦄🦄
You make it look so easy and he really enjoys what he does with you. Thank you for sharing with us.
what a lovely positive round!!! super sharps 🥰
Thats one hell of a smooth cam!
Holy cow that camera is so stable it doesn't even look like the horse is going fast
Most awesome ride ever! Beautiful course. Love that horse. The best-o Elisa! What a ride.
11:43 Clever horse🥺 Congratulations, beautiful ride!❤️
Wow! I'm addicted to these rides! Was a dream of mine to gallop a horse over a fence and although still game and riding it's out of my reach. But wow! This is the next best thing!
omg he just floats over the jumps! So cuteeeeee
you literally make it look so easy!
It might be just my viewing via the camera, but does that dappled light make it trickier to judge fences sometimes??
This is great! Sharpie loves this!! I'm definitely going to try your tipe of gallop! I usually sit my gallop but next time I will try it like you! Thanks for letting us come along!!💕💕

Terrific X-Cty run on a beautiful day. It does not get much better than that!
I don’t know if this is just me, but whenever the horse hits a stride the noise it makes it kinda satisfying lmao
Great ride! As usual! Awesome horse! He is SO striking! His red coat against that ultra green grass! That's a great course too! What would make it tricky for a green jumper is when it's really sunny, like that day, is all of the mottled sun/shade all over the ground! You really need to have the horses trust! All of those things can look really odd to a horse!
you both did a m a z i n g! he jumped so effortlessly, and you did a great job as a rider! :)
Sharp decision, Simply priceless, and This Esmes horses are my favorite famous horses yet! (But my favorite non- Famous is “ Star” a horse I used to work with.
He’s so relaxed and calm coming to the jumps
What a beautiful weather for riding! It's always a pleasure to see your videos! Thank you so much for sharing!
Stunning Cross Country riding !! Sharpie is just a machine !! The video quality looked next level ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Super fit, not even sweating. Great ride.
That horse is beautiful! Awesome job!
you had a perfect stride every time !!!! absolutely incredible
Good job, Sharpie!!! Also, the mare your friend is riding is absolutely adorable with that curly mane!
You and your horse move so perfectly and smoothly ❤️
Wowww love to watch the after event procedures too 😍✨
I love how this gives me an experience of riding since I've always wanted to ride a horse but never got a chance to.
