Classic Performance of the Week: Valegro

It feels like just yesterday that Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro were breaking world records right and left: four years ago almost to the day, the pair smashed their own record in the Freestyle at London Olympia.

Olympia, the London International Horse Show, is going on right now — so it seemed like a fine time to rewind to one of our favorite Olympia performances of all time. Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro certainly changed the face of dressage with their record-smashing performances in which they simply seemed to dance to whimsical yet fitting music from the children’s movie How to Train Your Dragon.

There’s simply not much more to say that hasn’t already been said about this mythic pair: watch their performance below!

That’s not a tear in my eye… why do you ask?

Go riding!
