I've watched this and the Totilas world records....... Both are supreme performances, both beautiful and talented horses and riders..... The difference? Valegro Is totally relaxed and simply looks happy! The horses well being should always come first!
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.
@Chestnutcow, Well said! You won't ever see her or Carl Hester use Rollkur, like other riders, such as Lottie Fry. Just a shame that Lottie went down that road. 😕
I cannot believe that Edward Gal was actually number 1. How can a person practicing rolkur to the point the horses tongue goes blue score 85%? Ridiculous. Charlottes win was deserved, what a lovely partnership they both were. Love it.
So many unique transitions! Halt to extended trot, passage half pass, piaffe pirouette, perfect piaffe, piaffe, piaffe!, free walk to collected canter, extended canter to pirouettes...that reverse! Tempe changes on center line(and you just know, straight as an arrow), pirouettes to final halt... all flowing and signals invisible. aMAZing❣
Yes I agree, it’s absolutely beautiful! It was actually halt to medium trot and extended walk to collected canter. There is no free walk anymore in the FEI levels
Charlotte is literally the only profesional dressage rider that is AMAZING with there horse and doesn’t use abusive methods for training, LOVE LOVE LOVE HER!
This is a moving performance. The connection between the two is obvious, and he moves and performs like water flowing in a river. Just natural and fluid, and looking like he’s having fun the whole time.
I am sure that this should have got even more marks but the judges were afraid to award more - such power and grace and perfection. Such ability to truly sit and push. The horse is in self carriage relaxed yet powerful. its true horse and rider perfection. I never get tired of watching it
Brought back memories of watching Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro. I loved their dressage and cheered when Charlotte and Valegro beat their World Record. I loved riding Dressage. I never got up to the level these riders are at. I am very envious of them back then.
this freestyle paired with the how to train your dragon soundtrack made me want to get serious about dressage work back when I first saw a recording of it a few years back
And this is on having a perfect bound with your horse. He seems so concentrated and at the end he just was the happiest horse I've ever seen. This was just perfect I get goosebump every time I watch it.
Absolutely stunning performance!! Nice to see such a relaxed horse :) The best part was the end when Charlotte gave the reins to Valegro and let him walk the ring as she praised him for his awesome work. What a beautiful team!! :)
I have never really understood dressage, and I ride horses (but i am a show jumper), but I still have immense respect for dressage riders and horses, especially Charlotte and Valegro. These two are such an amazing duo!!! I also loved the music!! I am a huge How to Train Your Dragon!!!!
@@dazedandconfused2010 awwwww thank you!! I'm sad to hear that you've been given so much flack from showjumpers :(. It's sad how much competition between diciplines is happening in the equestrian world.
could you imagine entering a competition, and when your up, you see Charlotte leaving the arena..... I can't imagine the stress the other riders had..... Charlotte is amazing.
I’m a casual rider, owned more than a few horses and ponies over the years…of course not any of this caliber, lol. Mostly Paints and Quarter Horses. I am completely uneducated about the world of dressage, but even I can recognize a pair of champions at work! I am in awe of all these horses, riders and trainers. Thanks for bringing such beauty to those of us who simply love horses and everything about them.
I really think Valegro was the Peak in Charlottes equestrian career, and she will always search for this horse in others but never find it because this horse is one of a kind.
This is beautiful! And this music makes this even beyond perfection. When you watch this, you actually can feel the harmony, the magic and the feeling of crisp wind in a moores of ireland or something :)
Poor valegro, i bet he was treated just like Totillas. As a dressage rider, you dont need abuse to get to the top. Only bond, friendship and love with your horse. You are a team and abusing your horse breaks the bond
FEI needs to make her ban permanent. She did not have “an error in judgement”, she had a pattern of abuse and it was so normal to her that she allowed it to be recorded.
There needs to be systemic change in the industry. And understanding given to a broken person in a broken system. What she did was unequivocally wrong. But she's also deserving of some understanding and the realization that change needs to begin somewhere. She is already going to suffer, regardless of ban. Let's allow her to be human and both be capable of doing something so wrong and yet also loving horses and the sport. And let's show her something other than the worst of humanity that only wants to crucify villains for their transgressions. Not excused or forgiven, but not thrown out forever either.

Me showing this to my horse:
"See, this is what I mean, no running around the arena"
My horse: literally runs around the arena like the devil has posed him instead😂
Same we can’t even do circles 🤪🤪🤪😆😆😆!!
Horse: "running is more fun!"
Ahhaaahah
And THAT is how to train your dragon 🥰
That is exactly what I was thinking. That side of yourself that is wild and scary, but after you work at your dressage you realize it is very sweet.
Hahaha love it
Immediately what I thought of
Best comment
I looooooove this
Valegro looks so proud of himself at the end 😭😍
And he so deserves to feel like that🥰🥰
Grateful to stop working
@@ratherbfishing455 it's good that they let him retire and didn't use him till his last breath
@@helenakove2 Hes retired from showing, but hes still being ridden and exercised.
@@DanishButterCookie I know but what I meant was that they aren't going to use his talent until his last breath unlike some with some horses
I think this is and always will be the most perfect official ride ever
Yes i think this too
True but the judges ruined it there too strict
@@taylorandlottie8916 it's the dressage world cup of course they are going to be very strict they expect perfection
In my lifetime.❤
So animal cruelty is perfect?
I've watched this and the Totilas world records....... Both are supreme performances, both beautiful and talented horses and riders..... The difference? Valegro Is totally relaxed and simply looks happy! The horses well being should always come first!
Totilas sadly passed away. :(
Valegro looks lazy in his movements, really calm horse. Totilas has natural jump to him. Valegro looks nice, but Toti is the true legend.
I think Valegro did better but toto will always be my favorite
@@onlinecomment you can achieve the right neck without rollkur with the right horse
@@onlinecomment uh...what?

same with Reiner and ingrid klimke!
Poor horse, he was scared
Aged fine like milk
The extended walk is such an underrated part of this: he looks so relaxed and happy
happy ???
No one will ever beat this pair, i literally get chills and tears in my eyes watching them
I cannot believe that Edward Gal was actually number 1. How can a person practicing rolkur to the point the horses tongue goes blue score 85%? Ridiculous.
Charlottes win was deserved, what a lovely partnership they both were. Love it.
All successful trainers use atrifitial crutches.
@@ratherbfishing455 Um. All of them?
@@aleghastzedd4315 If one wants to win at a National level, I would think so.
@@ratherbfishing455 Rollkur harms horses on a physical and psychological level though. It is banned as it is horse abuse
I knew a trainer who used bungees and rolled toe shoes on her horse.

That free walk to collected cancer was perfect!
Yes I agree, it’s absolutely beautiful! It was actually halt to medium trot and extended walk to collected canter. There is no free walk anymore in the FEI levels
@@bzleo2003 : CANTER?
Eeeek!!!! Do you think the same now, after recent developments? She hoodwinked everyone!!
Charlotte is literally the only profesional dressage rider that is AMAZING with there horse and doesn’t use abusive methods for training, LOVE LOVE LOVE HER!
My horse trainer is like her, she does everything she can to make it better for the horse.
maybe shendoes whoo knows.
Steffen Peters as well!
I thought the same until what’s been revealed.
Well that comment didn’t age well… But that video wasn’t abuse anyhow just ignorant peanut gallery.
This is a moving performance. The connection between the two is obvious, and he moves and performs like water flowing in a river. Just natural and fluid, and looking like he’s having fun the whole time.
That walk to canter transition was absolutely stunning- I can barely get my horse to stay in a trot I'm barely trotting too. 5:21
What an inspirational performence !!!!! This is ART
I love this pair. There is something magical about watching them at work. I can't wait to see Charlotte work with her new mount at the Olympics
I hope Valegro is enjoying retirement. Well deserved. This horse is so very special!
So do I, god knows what she did to him!!!
I am sure that this should have got even more marks but the judges were afraid to award more - such power and grace and perfection. Such ability to truly sit and push. The horse is in self carriage relaxed yet powerful. its true horse and rider perfection. I never get tired of watching it
Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester exemplify excellence in how to ride and treat a horse correctly and humanely! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Brought back memories of watching Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro. I loved their dressage and cheered when Charlotte and Valegro beat their World Record. I loved riding Dressage. I never got up to the level these riders are at. I am very envious of them back then.
Utter perfection......he has everything.....lightness , obedience and a Happy Athlete....whoo hoo
I found myself falling in love while watching this. "the world is made by them, for them! the world is theirs!"
This is a one of a kind horse. she will never find one like this one again. All the credit goes to him!!
Wow I did not expect her score to be that high! It's amazing!!
Im so disappointed in who Charlotte turned out to be. But Valegro? He will ALWAYS be my idol. She didn’t deserve him.
this freestyle paired with the how to train your dragon soundtrack made me want to get serious about dressage work back when I first saw a recording of it a few years back

Valegro seems like the most well-trained Dressage horse ever!
I’d love to have a ride with him! 🐴🥰
Me to my horse: “I want this, not you spooking at caution tape”
I have never really understood dressage, and I ride horses (but i am a show jumper), but I still have immense respect for dressage riders and horses, especially Charlotte and Valegro. These two are such an amazing duo!!!
I also loved the music!! I am a huge How to Train Your Dragon!!!!
thank you! i’ve been given so much flack from showjumpers you’re the first decent one i’ve seen 🤣
@@dazedandconfused2010 awwwww thank you!! I'm sad to hear that you've been given so much flack from showjumpers :(. It's sad how much competition between diciplines is happening in the equestrian world.
That horse is beaming with pride. I swear the horse is smiling at the end.
The best dressage rider! I think 5:57 is the most magical part
I think 2:25 amazing as well
No 6.20...perfect
@@amelia_f2763 @Pennywise 1990 it’s all amazing hahah
All of it is
The canter at 5:28 with the music was GORGEOUS

That is the reason this is a show and not an sport where horses are the athletes. This is an old posh sport.
One of her very best tests ever 😍
The horse dances better than most people I know. And he has to take care of 4 legs not 2.
Grand master dancer!
To be honest, I never imagined to see someone do dressage to the how to train your dragon theme... But I love it!
With what ease? Breathtaking performance! THAIS IS ART!😱😍❤️🔥🐴
She is a monster!!
No you are the monster jumping on the bandwagon - SHEEP
@@alicecopsey7789 do you beat your horse to the point of obvious physical discomfort too?
I love to watch horse race on tv ! I love horses they are loveable! Caring; i detest Animal CRuelty! Animals Have rights also? October 2024?😢
Makes you wonder how she treated the horse !
exactly
This is so beautiful! Charlotte is really a champion!!
OMG what rhythm and movement ,wow.
Невероятное наслаждение смотреть на работу этой пары. Энергия, драйв, элластичность...
Poor Valegro, she does not deserve animals. There not frickin puppets
I heard the music, and I said one phrase twice: "She did DRAGONS." Each time was louder. Her and Valegro are an incredible duo.
well these comments didn’t age well..
Your so real😭😭😭😭
A mistake 4yrs ago. She is still the best rider/trainer in the world. She is being used as a scapegoat.
Such a thing of beauty!! Tears in my eyes.
This is beautiful! And this music makes this even beyond perfection. When you watch this, you actually can feel the harmony, the magic and the feeling of crisp wind in a moores of ireland or something :)
Favourite movie plus favourite horse and rider combination? Yes please!! 🤩
Lovely horse. Lovely lady. Wonderful Lord Who created creatures with such ability & gives man ability & wisdom in demonstrating such capabilities.
Oh my god this amazing pair! I miss them.
Good work, Charlotte and Blueberry!
It's not blueberry, it's Valegro.
His stable name is Blueberry though:)
it is velegro
@@lacey-maehowie1626 His name is Valegro, but his barn name is Blueberry. It's a nickname
@@saraheeter6559 Yeah, that’s what I meant. But let’s not start a war about that.
Poor valegro, i bet he was treated just like Totillas. As a dressage rider, you dont need abuse to get to the top. Only bond, friendship and love with your horse. You are a team and abusing your horse breaks the bond
Bet he was glad to get away from her.
I love HTTYD, I love horses, I love Valegro, and I admire Charlotte. Best combination ever.
Blueberry, you little star you!
Absolutely incredible! Such a joy to watch horse and rider become ‘one.’ ❤🎉
Beautiful Dance of Celebrations!!!
Wish u a very very happy birthday charlotte dujardini
Simply superb in every way.
That is why Valegro is the grand master.
I tear up every time i watch him.
Makes me proud to be British.
Superb!!
Absolutely flawless.
There will never be another
Valegro.
Me listening to the music beeing like "Omg its Dragons" so many memories came back😃🥰
yiiiiiiiiiiikes
So pretty! There is so much perfection coming from this pair.
Horse rider do everything with such ease and grace. Poetry in motion.
I know nothing about dressage. But I mean, that's a damn good-looking horse.
This was absolutely beautiful and amazing!!!
STUNNING PERFORMANCE
Stunning performance and beautiful partnership! I could watch this a million times!💕
What an utterley fabulous horse! Should be in the Royal Ballet ❤
How to train your dragon: strike it 26+ times with a whip while a minor is in the saddle. 🙃
you guys should really take this video down at this point. I can only imagine the abuse that horse went through to be "That Good"
Every single time I cry with how magnificent he is...
Brings tears to my eyes!!!😂😂😂
This is absolutely stunning !!! ❣
UNBELIEVABLE. And that's that!!
So good omg and the music is amazing 😻
Such an amazing team omgg
FEI needs to make her ban permanent. She did not have “an error in judgement”, she had a pattern of abuse and it was so normal to her that she allowed it to be recorded.
Tell me how do you suggest getting a napping horse to move out when he ignores less aggressive cues like voice and cracking a whip?? Then what???
There needs to be systemic change in the industry. And understanding given to a broken person in a broken system. What she did was unequivocally wrong. But she's also deserving of some understanding and the realization that change needs to begin somewhere. She is already going to suffer, regardless of ban. Let's allow her to be human and both be capable of doing something so wrong and yet also loving horses and the sport. And let's show her something other than the worst of humanity that only wants to crucify villains for their transgressions. Not excused or forgiven, but not thrown out forever either.
Whipping is the less agressive abuse they use. For the dancing movements It is used acid applied to the Horse hooves base.
@@seneynah this Circus should be banned. No animal should be force to participe un this horror Circus, as lyons, Elephants, same methods.
@@mercuri919not in Dressage. They do that with Tennessee walking horses
Brava! Bravo! A joy to watch! Thank you
Most elegant and beautiful of the day, Charlotte is awesome
shes so good and the hhtyd music with it its just so harmonic and beutiful
I might be very naïve, but I didn’t know Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro were a team?!?!?!!!! So gorgeous
Best rider of our time
Steals my heart everytime.
Amazingly beautiful!
I love horses
so cute together
Wow! What a great "couple"! They are "maximising" Dressage !
Absolument magnifique ❤️
I turned the sound off so I could concentrate. And then I watched it again with the sound on. Jeebus.
Magnificent horse and rider!
Thr horse eas amazing! The rider sat well.
The how to train you dragon music makes it even better xD
❤VALLEGRO❤🐴
his tempi changes are flawless o my lord...
This horse is breathtaking,
outstanding emotional and magical
