LONDON Salomon SpeedCross 3 CS Mens , Dec. 18 (Xinhua) -- Britain's Charlotte Dujardin and Valegro produced a performance close to perfection when winning the Reem Acra FEI World Cup Dressage 20142015 Western European League qualifier at Olympia in London with yet another world-record-breaking score.
They set the previous record at the same venue 12 months ago when posting a mark of 93.975, but this evening earned 94.300 for an even more spell-binding display of harmony between horse and rider. And this latest triumph came just 24 hours after the dynamic duo beat their own world record in the Grand Prix in which The Netherlands' Edward Gal and Glock's Undercover also had to settle for runner-up spot.
Dujardin told the FEI, the world governing body of equestrian, that Valegro's performance almost brought her to tears. "When we were doing the last piaffepassage I was welling up and I had to say to myself don't cry, don't cry!"
"He tries so hard to get it right, it's an incredible feeling when you go in there in front of all those thousands of people and he just wants to perform and to give you his best Salomon GCS Pro Trail Mens ," she added.
There was a starting field of 14, and The Netherlands "Katja Gevers and Thriller took the early lead with a score of 72.276 before Irish national champion, Judy Reynolds, made a little history as the first rider from her country to qualify for the freestyle at the prestigious British fixture, posting a creditable 70.000. Germany's Soenke Rothenberger, was out in front at the halfway stage with Favourit on a mark of 77.825 Salomon Snowcross Mens , but that would only prove good enough for sixth place at the end of a magical night.
Gal gave it his best shot with Glock's Undercover, but after a solid start the horse's tension increased to leave them on a final score of 83.550, and Dujardin and the 12-year-old gelding she calls Blueberry just blew that away when following with a stunning test during which they picked up 25 maximum scores of 10. From the moment they set off, horse and rider were as one, gliding seamlessly from movement to movement and perfectly synchronised to their musical score from "How to train your dragon."
"I felt that I got into the music and he got into the music, and it felt like everything seemed to flow and to fit Salomon Fell Raiser Mens , and I hit everything on time," Dujardin said afterwards.
Runner-up, Gal who was 2010 series champion with the great Totilas, joked that he needs to "practice a little bit more - I'm just 10 percent behind!," while Germany's Jessica von Bredow-Werndl, whose third-place finish with Unee BB leaves her sharing the lead on the Western European League table with fellow-countrywoman Fabienne Lutkemeier Salomon S-Lab Sense 2 Mens , said, "I haven't had a world record breaking feeling yet, but I'm working on it!"
The Netherlands' Danielle Heijkoop steered Siro NOP into fourth ahead of Dujardin's great friend and mentor Carl Hester whose 10-year-old gelding, Nip Tuck, was the youngest horse in the competition.
Dujardin first appeared under the spotlights at Olympia back in 1996 when taking part in the traditional Christmas finale - dressed as a chicken. She sat on the 12-year-old gelding who has more than realised all her dreams.
"When I first started Grand Prix I had three goals," the 29-year-old rider said Salomon Comet Premium 3D GTX Mens , "to ride at Olympia, be on a team with Carl (Hester) and to get to London (2012 Olympic Games). The first year I got here I won and I couldn't believe it. Last year I broke my final world record here, and this year to break two in one show is absolutely outstanding."
The next leg of the series will take place in Amsterdam, The Netherlands on Saturday 31 January 2015.
