Bella Hadid was named the 2024 Southern Cutting Horse Futurity Classic LTD Amateur Champion for her horse riding skills.

The Victoria’s Secret vet, 28, who recently stepped out in a sheer tank top and shorts, took to her Instagram Story to show off the impressive belt buckle she was awarded on Saturday.

After emerging victorious, she posed with her chestnut stallion named Metallic Tito while looking unrecognizable compared to her typical eye-catching runway looks.

She was wearing leather pants, jeans, and a tan jacket paired with a black cowboy hat—her brunette locks styled in two braids.

“He already got so many cookies and now he definitely knows he won because now he’s trying to eat our buckle,” the Palestinian model wrote about her stud.

This year, the Southern Cutting Horse Futurity was held October 18-26 in Jackson, Mississippi.

The accomplished equestrian has participated in several major NCHA events, including the NCHA Summer Spectacular and the SCHF derbies, where she competes as an amateur.

Growing up, the five-foot-nine spectator found solace in horseback riding, but took a break in 2016 due to Lyme disease. He returned to the sport in 2023 after a seven-year hiatus.

In addition to Metallic Tito, she has been seen riding other horses including: Purrn Likeasmoothcat, Imma Be Smooth, Whippish, Amira and Tucker.

In 2015, Bella admitted that she liked horseback riding after her mother, Yolanda Hadid, introduced her to the hobby.

‘My devotion arose from my mother’s love of horses. “I’ve been riding horses since I could walk and the fact that my mother knew everything about horses really helped my passion grow,” she told the outlet.

“You have to put your ego aside and focus on making the horse do the things you want it to do and move the way you want it to move.” he said at that time.
