INDIVIDUAL GOLD FOR CHARLOTTE



Individual dressage gold for Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro with 90.089%, an Olympic record. Congratulations and what an inspiration to all students. Charlotte has achieved this through her dedication and determination as a student with Carl, working all hours, always being there to learn and grow from all opportunities. An amazing role model!


DRESSAGE TEAM GOLD



It has been an amazing few days at the Olympics for Equestrian sport - Huge congratulations to our British Dressage Team. Carl Hester, Charlotte Dujardin and Laura Bechtolsheimer won team GOLD!!! All from Gloucestershire, Both horses and riders look in a class of their own.


BRITAIN CLINCH SHOW JUMPING TEAM GOLD



Great Britain captured their first Olympic showjumping gold medal in 60 years, winning a dramatic jump-off against the Netherlands. The two countries were tied on eight penalty points after the team competition, sending the event into a shoot-out over a shortened course. And while two Dutch riders faltered, Nick Skelton, Ben Maher and Peter Charles all went clear to snatch gold.


GALLOPING TO VICTORY
 

At prix st georges (PSG), Gloucestershire-based Sara Gallop topped the class with 68.86% riding her 10-year old Danish warmblood Summerhouse Don Diego.


(As taken from Horse and Hound 19/07/12)

Sara, who trains with Carl Hester and Pammy Hutton, said: "He felt really rideable in the test, so I was able to push him forward and ask for a little bit more. Carl is always telling me off for hurrying my pirouettes, so I made a big effort to slow them down and take my time. I think it paid off."

Sara, who rode four tests at the show, also partnered her eight-year-old Summerhouse Zelham to finish sixth and eighth at medium and advanced medium. At elementary, she was seventh on Summerhouse Bandreo.
