Video of the Week: Valegro and Charlotte Dujardin

Will this horse and rider take home dressage gold at the 2012 London Olympics?

13-Jul-12

Who's your pick for dressage gold at the 2012 London Olympics? British rider Charlotte Dujardin is looking like the one to beat this year after being the first British rider to score in the 90s in international Grand Prix freestyle competition with her horse, Valegro. The pair achieved the feat last weekend at the Hartpury International Festival, two months after setting a record in the Grand Prix Special.

Great Britain has never won an Olympic medal in dressage, but perhaps having the home-turf advantage--and a competitor like Dujardin--will be just what they need to break the streak at the 2012 London Olympics. Check out the video of their freestyle below and let us know what you think.
