- Shetland ponies - they can move pretty quick!
Under sunny skies on the May Bank Holiday fixture at Bath racecourse, seven Shetland ponies and their young riders take to the track for a special race...

Omg Shetland ponies are so awesome I love them so much !!!!🌈💗💕💕🐎🐴
I have my own and he is the best pony ever.🤗🌠💗💗💕🐴🌈
That pony that won jumped the gun and the brown second pony was held back just a split second by his handler
Very true, gained an advantage at the start that held till the end. .
I think this is much better than the common horse racing.
Royal Isabella yea bc they have the smallest legs and fattest bellies lolol9l
Yes, more abuse
@@equineathart3225 you've never been around a horse.
Jon F ;-; dude and you have? I own one and I know for a fact that whips and bits can be painful if used incorrectly like this
@@equineathart3225 They are using them well. They are keeping the reins loose. You have zero clue. If you have been around horses you have been around jockeys. There is one in every riding school. I think its like a law. They are in every pony club and every jockey club. And if you have been around them you know they are experts at horsemanship and they love horses. Owning a horse means nothing. What worries me is this ....in the REAL world the real equestrian world you would know other horsey people you would know jumpers or hunters or eventers and jockeys or you would know someone married to a jockey or the daughter or a jockey. The last place i went hacking in the guy who took us out on our hacks was an ex jockey. You would see lots of other people riding ...in different styles. How is you are so disconnected from the rest of the equestrian world that you think this is abuse? It's worrying because it kind of leads me to believe you just went out and bought a horse then started commenting online. How could you go through a riding school without using a whip or a crop or a bit it would be impossible? And surely you would realize after an hr lesson the vast majority of riders like 99.9% use them correctly. And its usually people like you who have no schooling (and don't tell me you went through a riding school and think this is incorrect they are riding really really well) IT REALLY SCARES ME PEOPLE LIKE YOU OWN HORSES. Yet you have no connection to any stable or anyone outside yourself who rides. That is dangerous.
woohoo! good on the girl who got 2nd, lost a stirrup!
The Frankel of pony racing!
I see some of these famous riding at Ardingly and Eden bridge show in oxted
I love it I have a Shetland who ran at 2017
looks fun!
@2:07 You can't fool me, that Sir Elton John center left in the light blue silks and dark verticals.
Splendid little pony!
That was quite a race.
Das hier ist so süß. Kinder, die auf Shetlandinseln rennen? So bezaubernd!
I like it kind of raceing with the kids there should do more
I think this is so funny
Isabella Paro abuse?
Emma Hart it’s not abuse the shettys love it! They are really stubborn and if they didn’t like it they *wouldn’t* do it
@@equineathart3225 Horse/Pony racing isn't abuse.
Sweet😍
Bellissima idea per avvicinare i bambini a questo sport dovrebbero farlo anche in itali
This is soo much better than actual racing because it's fun and you don't have to worry about falling off I mean well most likely you won't and also it's a safer race since in EVERY horse race there's always something wrong and people don't realize it until the horse or person gets hurt
Charlotte M What do you mean by this is so much better than "actual racing"?
I have seen some videos of these shetland pony races where the kids play dirty. They get away with things adults wouldn't. I think that is wrong because a kid falling from a pony is just as dangerous as an adult falling from a grown horse.
7/1 for Nunthorpe, Corals, Ladbrokes, Hills .....
Sana ol my pony🐴🐴
Dell done
My Shetland pony runs way faster it’s just he is to wild 😂 but I prefer to ride my big horses
ikr the bravest people ride ponies XD They have the fieriest spirits
@@animalcrazyabouteverything4367 agreed haha
This is hilarious
I'm going for Oliver stiles
Čas 3 : 30 a dále ten první jezdec/jezdkyně to pobízení
Dude I would love to do this
This is freeing helers
soso cute😍
This should be more common
Jsem jediná kdo je tady čech ???? A jako super ale všimli jse si také jak zběsile a silně pobízeli ???
Jo až mi je jich lito
I do horse racing to
Id love to do this with my shetland if only i was a bit smaller haha hes quiet fast haha
when I was a child and outgrew my shetland pony, I used a pony cart. She was super fast at a trot, and we'd do the country roads. She loved it, and I was able to still get out with her!
How fast are they running (mph)?
4 lol jk probably about 25.
100000000000000000 mph
Tom & Jerry brought me here
اين العرب
yyy
The one that got first place kept kicking his poy...the one that got last would barely touch it😣😣😣
Evi Marioli he was kicking very hard too
You sould see real jockeys, the ponies are fine, quit being a snowflake.
It doesn’t hurt them I promise he’s doing very good and he’s doing it correctly if your in a race your supposed to do It doesn’t hurt them
Amazing !
Bubby Dee yes, quite fine abuse
Emma Hart you do know that most race horses probably have better lives than you?
Emma Hart that’s just saying you can’t ride a horse anymore because they are going to spook and when you go for a gallop that’s just like racing. So here’s an announcement no one can gallop a horse again
😍❤❤❤
😃👏👏👏
if i ride and go in this race at my horse i win lel :D
assy craft 2 your Minecraft horse?
Yeah, Minecraft? Riding is harder than you think. It’s not just kick then win. And racing is abuse
Fiminio think about it. A horse being ripped at the mouth and whipped at its flank. And it’s amusing? Yes it is abuse
@@fiminio9316 This isn't abuse, the children are the correct size for the ponies, THe ponies are running happily, yes they are being whipped, but thats because they're stubborn ponies, I ave to use a crop with the pony I ride, she is an ass if you don't have one, the most I do is lightly tap her shoulder to encourage her but sometimes she needs a wack on the hind-quarters when she doesn't listen, the ponies are fine.
@@valoranthater420 use your fucking brain, these ponies aren't happy being whipped and if you can only make a horse listen through pain you're just using it as an excuse for being a bad horseman
Great !
Rem Remy yes, hard, great abuse
unfair start
Equestrian girls for life equestrian it’s just how it is lol
It’s unfair both ways. It’s abuse
There is no fair start for that type of race.
Emma Hart - Hardly.
Emma Hart you probably think petting a horse is abuse now
I bet there all going to be jockeys when they grow up!
Olivia Walsh more food for the people who eat horses who go to the racer slaughter house
Emma Hart ?
Emma Hart horses don’t go to slaughter houses when they retire they go to a retirement home
@@equineathart3225 not all race horses get slaughtered, i have a few ex racehorses and they weren't slaughtered :) sorry for the extremely late reply
@@equineathart3225 you comment on everyones coomments and some do if theres something wrong not all do in most places its illegal to kill them
my child has a shetland pony and it is so much faster
You might try letting the RSPCA Vets check out the ponies and riders. Some of these kids are way too big for these ponies. It's shameful!
Kyla Standley well, Shetland ponies are the strongest type of pony, which is great for racing and they could carry twice their weight. So they weigh around 600 pounds maybe? So they can carry heavy weights. Shetlands can handle 70 pound children! :)
Foxiistarzz AJ they can carry 60 pounds. The kids are big for them. Strong or not, it’s abuse.
@@equineathart3225 God, stop arguing a point that isn't true, this isn't abuse, the size of the ponies matter, the size of the kids are perfect for this, if they grow past a certain height they won't be able to ride shetlands anymore unless they're mixed with a bigger breed like a welsh. It's against the law if they get too large and still ride the ponies, hence why most of the kids are around the same size.
Actually, its not height based, its weight based, they may not be the ideal height but they are not too heavy for the pony. In he future they will have to get new ponies because they will be too big, but now, it's not abuse.
Animal crazy about everything I agree with you on that.
Horse abuse
You need to look up the definition of abuse.
@Miniamires This isn't horse abuse.
The only abuse here is abuse of definitions.
Look up your concepts!
@@karaamundson3964 Yooo tf, this was... ONE YEAR ago... right then I thought it was the same as horse races. Still do lmao
@@57HarleyDavidson same goes for you and..
I hate horse racing!

Thats because youre ignorant
Nothing wrong with it dont look at it its simple
