I love the fact that Charlotte really proof what kind of an amazing rider she is. Not just with Valegro, but like with any horse
and a fantastic girl
i love this channel, it’s like gucci for equestrians :)
Thanks Ellie! 😉
so true!
More like vouge!
Aine Davis that’s what i was going for!!!
@@noellefloyd_plus how many horses do you own?
She’s not “Mrs valegro”, she’s freestyle. She’s her. She’s amazing-
Shes not but Valegro is a once in a lifetime horse. Calling her that is a compliment beyond compare
It means she's his perfect counterpart; equal in ability and soundness of temperament. And she's getting that kind of compliment as a newbie at 5. That is outstanding. There's no taking away from it. She's one to watch accomplish the great things to come!
Nice to see professionals with a genuine love for the animal and it's unique personality
Free Style is such a beautiful horse with such a gentle kind eye.
She really is and the way Charlotte talks about her is beautiful.
Yes, first thing I noticed was that giant, kind, soft, brown eye. She sees everything around her with no “blind spots.”
Two gentle kind eyes.
I want someone to love me the way Charlotte loves Freestyle 💕💕💕
Same🙂
Evelyn Burke Dressage
Don’t we all...🙂
Best bet is getting a dog then, though, if you ask me...🥴
@@raraavis7782 That's the saddest thing I've read in some time. That said, there is nothing like the love/loyalty of a dog.
Well, I hope you & Evelyn find what you're looking for. Good luck & good health.
Just seeing her stand quietly next to Charlotte and letting her love all over her face shows how amazing and calm her temperament is.
I think my favorite part about this is Charlotte mentioning that Free Style is the same away as she is at home; it's truly a testament to the confidence Charlotte must instill in the horses she works with. It's really inspiring.
Valegro was like that too. Both amazing horses, of course, but I bet they wouldn’t be that way with heavy handed training and riding.
I started tearing up because the connection between them is so beautiful
Please make more of these
Their connection is beautiful for sure. 😊
I love that she says "I told her..." , "I asked her..." She shows that she respects the horses as if they were human beings. As if they were her best friends from school...
aw that "Giving Eye" -- i love it!!
I don't mean to compare them, but in my opinion she's the best horse dressage has ever seen and my definitive personal favourite. Such an extraordinary horse
Bravo Charlotte 😄 you are an amazing rider and person 😄 😄
Brava*
@Katelyn Crazyway uhm no?
@@ihateyou7141 Maybe it's a different country thing, because where I live the original comment is correct. Brava sounds odd, my autocorrect doesn't even like it.
@@a.jaydeb.7441 Bravo its an Italian word. And I'm Italian hahaha and bravo is for boys and brava for girls
@@a.jaydeb.7441 It isn't a thing of a different country ahaha
i swear, that horse is sooo beautiful
What a sweet, beautiful and talented horse :) Charlotte Dujardin is such an amazing rider
I love when you find that one horse that one horse that enjoys its job and what it does so much, they light up and show their best effort when in the arena. I’ve yet to get personally meet one, but the stories I hear of them are amazing.
I ride a horse Daytona and he is the best and he gave me a feeling and his temperment is calm, cool and collected. Me and him have this instant bond
She is a beautiful horse and Charlotte is an amazing rider! I love how big and beautiful freestyle is! they are both really inspiring together.
Aww I love seeing how much Charlotte adores her horses 💖
What a beautiful mare and such gorgeous eyes. I love her 💕🙄
Beautiful horse and delightful introduction to her. Xx
Both love each other. I rode racehorses for many years. There were some very special horses for me too.
I watched a video about Mount st. John recently and I was very excited to recognize Free Style in this video! :D
Aww! She’s beautiful! 😍 You can just see the bond between her and Charlotte.
Awe pretty girl. I love mares. Looking forward to video s of her being schooled.
She's so very special ..soo glad that you found her. Another match made in heaven💗💗💗
So happy you have her; you are so right about her eyes; good soul
She's beautiful. She's got such a sweet, kind eye
Love her attitude! You can really tell she loves this horse. Free Style is beautiful!
Not Valegro😟.....BUT👆 I am very happy to have *Mrs.* Valegro.💓💓💓. Literally, a wave of happiness hit me when I read this!!! Mrs. Valegro always reminds me of Valegro!!😖😖😖😖😔😔😔😔
Charlotte is by far my favorite athlete. Best wishes from Colorado. :)
I love the comment on the “big floppy ears”. That’s the best
She is truly a beautiful animal and she clearly loves you !😄👍
Your channel is honestly so amazing, it keeps me motivated and excited for my next ride
Thank you! That's our goal, inspiring and unity all equestrians. ❤️
My horse has the exact same face but different color
The love comes through.
She sure is special. WOW Love that mare!
She is my idol, I would love to be her when I’m older ♥️
She's definitely wonderful aspirational goals! 😍
What a miracle Charlotte will have another! Another perfect match of trust confidence work ethic and love.
Soo happy for her to be able to do it all all over again! Think she needs to be Freestyle all on her own! Will look forward to following their career together as I did before...
Very beautiful horse! Talented rider! When I read Mrs. Valegro, I thought perhaps Freestyle was having Valegro's foal! A baby from those two would be an amazing mover.
She's adorable 😍
What a love for her horse! That's how it should be ♥️
Absolutley adore her colour, beautiful animal
Something about the girls .......the boys are powerful and wow , but a good girl just captures your heart and emotions every time
💕💕 I love this so much
I know exactly what she's talking about. I got my dream horse not that long ago, and at first it was love at first sight, but when I got on him, he was absolutely amazing, if felt like I was floating on a cloud!
I was out to try him three to four times, and he was so calm, and his personality was also amazing. He LOVED to cuddle and being petted. He also loves treats ❤️
And the fact that he loves to work is also a really good quality!
He always opens his mouth on his own, when I put a bit in his mouth. He never bites after me or anything when I tighten the girth, he's always calm.
He got used to the new place in a matter of days!
I also teached him to jump over obstacles and he absolutely loves it. His ears are pinned to the jump, and when he's over it, he tries to quickly run around and try again. 💕
I could talk about him for hours, I just love him so much! 🤗
Mrs.Valegro is a beauty 💓
Aww this is so sweet💕
I love love those ears!
Such a gorgeous horse, that face 😍🥺
She is amazing
Shes beautiful......
And of course Charlotte is remarkable
I love Freestyle! Her ears whilst performing are just so bouncy and relaxed! I also really like the breeding philosophy of the stud she came from, Mount St. John, it's super interesting how they try not to repeat a stallion/mare combination exactly, instead going back up the bloodlines of one or the other!
Thank You BLESSINGS 🎇💖🐴💖🎇
She is dreamy ❤️❤️
Firm believer in the lower swirls give you an amazing temperament!
Interesting. I went back to look for the swirl. Is it the one low on her forehead beneath her star?
Linda Cannon Never mind, Google showed me the examples. It’s been decades since I’d heard that theory and I did remember it correctly after all this time
A beautiful soul all on her face. Wow!
Raise your hand if you plod along in your backyard arena pretending to be Charlotte.
Sarah Ryder, PhD I plod alongvto the bus stop pretending to be Charlotte
India M *raise hand* MEH!
D D, PhD *I do it in my small back yard pretending my rake is a horse...it’s so embarrassing...* 😉
@@mefford67 the winky face is giving me weird vibes
Gorgeous
What a nice video. What a lovely mare
It makes me laugh at the end when they are walking towards a big puddle. Mrs Valegro says “Charlotte dear, I know you are in your £800 boots, but you better take the puddle.” I can see the pecking order between them.
Where did y’all find her. Love her
Lovely! Does anyone know what breed she is?
She is a Hanoverian Warmblood!
❤️❤️❤️
I would love to compete in dressage competitions but I am only 13 years old.
Good cheers to you!
Backround music is a way too loud, quite interesting interview
A mare that wants to please?? Where can I get one
I have that connection with a bourse at a barn sadly I can’t afford him ride now he’s an ottb
Io amo i cavalli ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

Aww horsey wanted mooshies! Xxx
I had that bond with a horse. He was my lease horse But sadly the owners said that i came to often.
😟.. Maybe buy the horse from the owner? Had the same experience with a leased horse too. But the owner moved the horse to a new stable and I never met them again.
I love this horse so much! I agree that character is more important than speed! She really loves her trainer! The horse trainer needs to horse the horse mire than just wanting success in the arena! I love horses so much even tho I haven't ridden since I was a teen 55 years ago! Bad experience with a horse my grandpa bought me! She was not the right horse for me!
I love how much Charlotte loves and looks after her horses, she puts all the anti equestrians to shame.
If the horse is so responsive, why the chain on her halter? Seems a bit severe for such a well-behaved horse.
Thank you, I was shocked by that too. It just shows that nobody is perfect.
What does a chain do on a halter? (Not really a horse person)
@@kimwolf9229
It inflicts pain, the pain gives you more power over the horse, the horse learns what to do to avoid the pain, like walking next to the handler and such.
The horse doesn't walk next to the handler because it wants to, but because it doesn't want to be hurt.
Big difference between a horse choosing to walk besides you, and a horse that's pressured into walking besides you by methods that case pain.
@@Galemor1 - Or that some people use negative, rather than positive, methods to direct a horse's behavior. Many, many people use even abusive methods to "train" horses. Pain does not build trust.
If the horse would have been in pain there would be allot more signs, not trying to hate and don’t want to write a bible but there is at least 3-4 fingers between the halter and the chain, and yes no one is perfekt and Will never be perfekt, if u want to hate have proof first,
Wasn’t she in free rein?
Does anyone know why does Charlotte call him by “she” if he’s a male ?
This is the mare Freestyle, who they gave the nick name Mrs. Valegro!
Is she allowed to go on the field?
Most likely yes it is proven that horses perform better when they get turned out and I think she likes to turn out her horses
Yes! Most of Charlotte and Carl’s horses are out most of the day. I believe Utopia lives outside 24/7, even before competition. They are a top notch example of proper horse care.
There's a video done by I think possibly even the same channel where they show off their property. They also explain their turnout, and it's actually really good. The young horses are out 24/7 and the competition horses are out at least all of the night.
nice horse
how can her nails look so perfect with that length, lol i go into the barn once and have dirt and straw collecting under my nails 😂
Magic!✨ ✨
They are false. I remember she said in a video or I read it somewhere that she wears false nails to hide her stable hands!
It's a shame she didn't take her to Tokyo, maybe next time
These are the moments u wish valegro was a stallion.. 😢😢
I don't think you need a chain for your horse if you really love it
Devils Daughter its just for looks it doesn’t hurt her lol
having a chain attached to the end of a leadrope has nothing to do with loving it!!
cathy parvin it doesnt hurt..... a huge animal is not going to be hurt by a chain that weighs like 100g
Ruth K
That is nonsense. Of course it hurts. That’s why it’s used. Chains are put over or under sensitive places on a horse’s face (and every place on a horse’s face is sensitive), to control them with pain, or the potential of it. Charlotte is not using it harshly, and that is good, of course. But even so, it’s there and Free Style knows it, as any horse would.
The argument that the comparatively small weight of a chain would make it unable to hurt a horse is also nonsense. Think of a splinter. Or a needle. Or a bee sting. Or a pebble in your shoe. Small or light doesn’t equal harmless. In fact, it can often increase pain, especially on a sensitive body part.
Lastly, this wasn’t your comment, but I’ll say this here to respond to another who said it’s was “just for looks.” Wrong. It’s placement has a function. When done by popular people everyone watches and admires, it can become a “look,” which is then repeated. But make no mistake: it hurts, or has the potential to hurt, especially when used by people who think it doesn’t hurt and are just following a fashion. If you’re going to do it, know why. And it should never be for a “look.”
Lovely video, though, and cheers to Charlotte and her obvious love for her horses and the sport.
Poor Dean Golding..................
Who came from free rein?
I can't help but think there is something wrong with Freestyle . Described her as Mrs Valegro and talking about her going to Tokyo then suddenly she's disappeared off the face of the earth and it's now all about Gio. ......
I also hope we'll get an update at some point. I mean it is not the end of the world if for some reason plans and expectations change, but the fact that they can't talk about it makes me nervous.
@@misssophie6515 Exactly. Either way I'd like to know .
So you're going to breed her with Vallegro and you get to keep the foal for all your hard work, yes?
Hey that's great but why are you using a chain on her!? That's garbage!
I thought Valegro had a white spot on the nose... Watch the last performance they made...
This is Mrs. Valegro aka Free Style!
Why is she saying she? Valero is a boy. No hate just saying
The horse she’s talking about isn’t valegro... she is talking about her mare freestyle... nicknamed. Mrs.valegro...
I thought valegro is a he
@some one I know she's a mare I thought before that it was a boy but now I know that she's a mare bec it says Mrs valegro
@@akequestrian9563 The actual Valegro is a different horse entirely, and he is a gelding. This one has earned the nickname Mrs Valegro due to her temperament, her actual name is Mount St. John Freestyle.
Saw the chain on the horses face and immediately lost interest in the video
Are you kidding? The thing is loose the entire time, and is literally just for show. There are plenty of actual problems out there in the equestrian world, why don't you go find one if you are so eager to complain about something?
I know, so many people are looking up to Charlotte, so seeing her using a chain, will make others do it to.
I don't care if it's loose or not, it's just bones covered with a thin layer of skin under the horses chin, the "loose" chain will rub against the bones in every movement the horse does.
I guess ignorance is a bliss..
@@Galemor1 Have a look at the video again. There is always at least three or four fingers between the horse's chin and the chain, therefore, if anything it would brush against the chin rather than rub. It is certainly not being used in its more severe form where it goes over the top of the nose. There is clearly no discomfort being caused here.
I agree that used irresponsibly a chain is terrible, but here there is nothing wrong with the way Charlotte is using it. Not ignorant, just aware that equipment like a chain, is only as harsh as the person using it.
@@SpottedLeafy
It's unnecessary.
I have used it on stallions, because they might need the pain to snap them back to focus on you.
We just see parts of the video, the only reason you put a chain like that, is because it's needed..
It's not “pretty“
@@Galemor1 And yet there are far worse things being done to horses than what is being done in this video... Go find one of those to focus on rather than this, which is rather pointless as this horse is clearly not in pain at all.
She does have huge ears! Lol but so lovely
“We have an instant connection” yeah? That’s why you need the metal chain under the chin? hahaha and you’ll have idiots defending her about how horses are dangerous or a metal chain doesn’t hurt them or whatever other way they justify using pain to control the horse. Yeah this comment is negative. Yeah I’m a hater. This whole “oooh amazing eyes, kind eyes, beautiful personality” and how much she loves this but sadly that horse has to stay on a stall for a majority of its life. If you love the horse so much, let it be a horse.
Not a very special horse..that's almost like all competition horse nothing special about her to me to be honest, no hate just my opinion
0:54 can someone explain the chain under the chin? We either don’t use the chain or put it over the nose as a shank for the harder horses.
