VIDEO - Carl Hester and Hawtins Delicato wins Grand Prix freestyle at Bolesworth today
Smaller issues with the first piaffe tour and an error for the first attempt of the two times, and of course still not a test with a high degree of difficulty.
VIDEO - Dujardin and MSJ Freestyle breaks the 80% in today's Grand Prix Special at Bolesworth
80,362% is the fact after today's Grand Prix Special at Bolesworth from Charlotte Dujardin with her 10-year-old MSJ Freestyle, owned by Emma Blundell.
Watch out - just 3 month before they enter the centerline at WEG in Tryon
Not much to say, just that the development from 1st time we saw the combination international till today is really impressive. Still small things to be polished, but so much controlled power and quality. Just a single 10 for the final extended trot.
Again today Danish Ulrik Mølgaard and his now 17-year-old Michigan were shining and were placed 4th. They showed a very strong test without any technical issues, and definitely not a horse look like heading towards his "autumn".
Carl Hester and Van Olst Horses demo today at 16:10 - local time (17:10 CET)
Carl Hester will do the comments while Charlotte Fry and Anne van Olst will be in the saddle
Charlotte Fry and Anne van Olst will be showing among others the KWPN stallion Everdale which recently made his debut at national U25 Grand Prix level under Charlotte Fry with 69,62%.
Live stream via Clipmyhorse.
Dujardin and Hester in top of today's CDI3 Grand Prix at Bolesworth (video)
Strong test from Dujardin and Freestyle - nearly 80% (79,652%) - 2 judges over the magic 80%
As we just have seen this combination a few times, they already improved. The piaffe tours are much more settled even though they of course still miss the experience and security together in the arena.
Super halt but not straight into trot, but with 3 walk steps into the trot, lovely half passes, top power and balance for extended trot, good halt with rein back, super nice 1st piaffe with good transitions, good walk tour, not direct up into passage from collected walk, strong canter tour but with a small error in the middle of the 1 times, nice qualities for the pirouettes with best 2nd pirouette. (video below)
Carl Hester and Hawtins Delicato also shows a very strong test. Nice smooth trot tour with supple half passes, for the halt with rein back the halt itself lack a bit longer halt before asking for rein back, small tensions for the 1st piaffe tour, but does not the disturb the rhythm or balance, lovely expressive passage, for the extended walk would could wish for a bit more stretching of the neck but the walk quality is good, like for the collected walk, very nice 2nd piaffe tour, small unbalance for the zig-zag, nice series, good qualities for pirouettes but could be a bit more centered. Lovely angles for the piaffe and passage tours. 77,217%.
At the moment it looks like Gareth Hughes will be the 3rd spot for the team, but we haven't seen Spencer Wilton with Super Nova II this year internationally yet. And next in the line must be Emile Faurie.
Bit outside the team is British Henriette Andersen with Flavio. Today they showed personal best score with 70,783% and also best test. No technical issues well balanced test, still the piaffe tours need more power off the ground and a bit cautious transitions out. Super nice well performed canter tour.
Only Danish combination was British based Ulrik Mølgaard with his now 17-year-old Michigan. They showed a very strong test and from the sideline also a test that showed more than the final score of 69,978%. Super strong trot tour with and OUTSTANDING halt with rein back, totally balanced square halt at the letter, diagonal supple rein back with 5 steps and direct forward to trot - just rewarded with 6,5 - 6,5 - 8 - 8 - 6,5, a clear 9 from H2R point of view. The piaffe tours still lacking more suppleness and Michigan becomes a bit locked in his own way of doing the piaffe, good extended walk, becomes a bit hurried for the collected walk tour, the 2nd piaffe is with more activity, very solid canter tour, with huge series, pirouettes could show more sit, nice final with very nice passage.

Accurate and smooth winning Prix Sct. Georg yesterday evening from Dujardin and Florentina
75,235% test
What a pleasure to have Charlotte Dujardin back on the screen. Dujardin just shows how to ride all the way, and her way of riding a test makes the overall picture so easy.
The 8 year old grey mare Florentina by Vivaldi / Rubels shows a super well balanced trot tour, smooth half passes, all the way the same rhythm and balance, super walk tour with nice walk pirouettes, nice canter tour without any technical issues, lovely preparation into the pirouettes, the first pirouettes lacking 1 or 2 strides, while the 2nd is with superb quality. Three times series becomes a bit tense and with small swinging changes, the final extended canter becomes a bit conservative.
Charlotte Dujardin also came 2nd with the 9 year old mare River Rise Escarla by Lord Leatherdale / Ferro, they just had a big issues with the transition from walk to canter, where Escarla misunderstands the signal from Dujardin a couple of times before making the transition at A. Smooth trot tour, good walk but not with same relaxation as Florentina, very strong canter tour with superb pirouettes and nice series.

Fantastisk hattrick af Dufour

PRESSEMEDDELELSE
Der er ingen over eller ved siden af dressurens dronning, Cathrine Dufour, men konkurrenter begynder at puste hende i nakken
Selvom der måske ikke har været spænding om resultatet ved DM i dressur for seniorer på Broholm Gods i denne weekend, så har det alligevel ikke været en walk-over for den 26-årige dressurrytter Cathrine Dufour og hesten Atterupgaards Cassidy. For en ung kombination fra Randbøl ved Vejle er begyndt at ride højere og højere procenter hjem og toppede i dagens finale.
Men Cathrine er ikke nummer fire i verden for ingenting, så med et sikkert ridt, hvor Cassidy ikke satte en hov forkert, red hun dem direkte op på guldskamlen.
“Det var virkelig vildt og meget rørende at stå derinde i dag. Han gør det bare så godt hver gang, så jeg føler mig bare mega heldig, at jeg får lov til at ride på sådan en hest. Det er meget, meget stort”, sagde en jublende lykkelig Cathrine Dufour, der til dagligt driver sit eget sted lidt uden for Roskilde.
“Det har været en rigtig sjov konkurrence, for jeg var lidt spændt på, hvor tæt Daniel ville komme på os de første par dage. Og så er det jo altid sjovt at komme som forsvarende mester og mase lidt på, så det har været en super fed weekend”.

Lykkelig og stolt Bachmann
Den Daniel, Cathrine taler om, er berider Daniel Bachmann Andersen fra Randbøl ved Vejle, som til dagligt arbejder for stutteri Blue Hors ejet af Keld Kirk Kristiansen. Daniels mål var at vinde sølv, så han var lykkelig over, at målsætningen holdt.
“Jeg er bare så glad og stolt over at ha’ en hest som Zack. Hvor er det bare fedt at ha’ en hest, der er så god. Det er bare så vildt! Jeg er lykkelig - SÅ glad!”, sagde en storsmilende Daniel Bachmann Andersen, der virkelig har redet sig ind i publikums bevidsthed i denne weekend. Også hos Daniels træner Lars Petersen, der er tidligere EM-, VM- og OL-rytter for Danmark, var der glæde over det flotte resultat.
“Jeg er meget stolt over, hvor godt det er gået. Jeg har været med med Zack, siden den var helt ung, så det er virkelig dejligt og sjovt, at det går så godt. Og det kan godt ske, at jeg hjælper Daniel med at træne, men han er også en kanon rytter, så det gør jo mit job meget nemmere”, sagde en stolt træner efter præmieoverrækkelsen.

Hesten med ja-hatten
Bronzemedaljen gik til den kun 24-årige Anna Zibrandtsen fra Birkerød, der var med til at ride EM-holdsølv hjem til Danmark sidste år i Göteborg.
“Det er helt vildt. Vi er jo stadig unge og uerfarne. Det er kun min 12. Grand Prix, så jeg er meget glad for, at jeg overhovedet har kunnet være med i medaljekampen”, sagde hun og var super tilfreds med sin hest, hingsten Arlando. “Vi har haft tre meget stabile ture, og det har jeg været rigtig glad for. Jeg ville gerne vise, at vi er tilbage i form og satser på landsholdet frem mod VM. Arlando er bare en hest, der har ja-hatten på, så uanset, hvad det bliver til, så er det bare en fornøjelse at ride ham hver eneste dag, og det er det vigtigste for mig. Men kan vi oven i det få et VM, så ville jeg være dybt taknemmelig, for det ku’ virkelig være sjovt”.
Alle tre ryttere er udtaget til bruttotruppen, hvori landstræner Nathalie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein skal finde de fire, der til september skal repræsentere Danmark ved VM i Tryon, USA. Dagens 4. plads gik til det unge håb, kun 20-årige Victoria Vallentin, som i den grad red sig ind på landstrænerens radar, og er en seriøs spiller til at komme med til VM.

Today was 1st day for this years selection of the attractive and prestigious spots for WBFSH World Championships for Young Horses for Denmark.
From H2R point of view some of the best candidates representing Danish Warmblood are:
5 year old
Zhaplin Langholt by Glock´s Zonik / Stedinger - is just an outstanding horse with Andreas Helgstrand in the saddle. This is a clear candidate for the medals.
Again this year Stud Atterupgaard will be represented with top horses. For the 5 year old is the beautiful and well moving Atterupgaards DeLorean by Bon Bravour / Sandro Hit is a clear candidate for the team, and for sure a horse for the final.
And for the two other spots Delizia with Anne Troensegaard and Straight Horse Ascenzione with Victoria Vallentin are H2R candidates, or Lindballes Just Perfect with Simone Pearce.
6 year old
Last years bronze combination Gold medal stallion Hesselhøj Donkey Boy by ERA Dancing Hit / Milan with Jan Christensen showed top qualities and looks like another medal candidate in Ermelo this year.
New combination since last year is Spanish Severo Jurado Lopez with the stallion Atterupgaards Botticelli by Benetton Dream/Caprimond. For sure also a cadidate for the finals.
And for the other two spots are Stenagers Wyatt Earp with Kenneth Damgaard and Hevringholms Delaya with Susanne Barnow.
7 year old
By the 7 year old horses are Carina Cassøe Krüth for sure ready with both her girls Heiline´s Danciera and Red Diamant, and they are both candidates for the podium. Also Jacob Nørby Sørensen with Ellegaardens San Droneur and Polka Sensation Nexen with Jim Rasmussen looks like candidates for the team.
