  • We throw it back to 2014 when Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro beat their own World Record in the Grand Prix Freestyle at the FEI Dressage World Cup™ at London Olympia. Dujardin and Valegro broke the old record with an outstanding score of 94.3% to stun the crowd at The London International Horse Show. What an unbelievable performance!

    There’s a reason Charlotte is so successful. She carries a soft hand and communicates well with her horses. I see relaxed and fluid movements and horses that appear in perfect sync with their rider. I see too many riders with a “one direction ticket” shooting off cues to their mount with no real connection. It ends up looking tense and robotic. Charlotte and Valero look like liquid.
