Just seven times Fry and Glamourdale scored a 9 today
Charlotte Fry is really showing her horses in super form each time she is entering the centerline, and today with another top performance with the still “green” Grand Prix stallion Glamourdale.
When watching the test today you just get the feeling that more 9´s were missing and also worth a couple of 10´s. The control and power combined with suppleness makes the outstanding overall picture. It is a pleasure to watch correct frame, steady contact and 100% “yes hat” all the way - this is dressage at it´s best.
Good halt, power expressive diagonal, crossing forward uphill half passes, bit unsteady halt good rein back, power diagonal, super into passage, smooth sit into piaffe, active piaffe, super transitions, good walk tour, super passage, nice 2nd piaffe, good into canter, super forward 2 times, WOW EXTENSION, super zigzag, good 1 times, bit big last stride 1st pirouette, super 2nd, bit late into trot, super diagonal, super final centerline.
Lorenzo back in the arena after nearly 3,5 years - placed 2nd today
Lorenzo made his name at the international top level together with Spanish international rider Severo Jurado Lopez and together they came 5th at Rio Olympics freestyle final in 2016.
Last time Lorenzo was at start with Severo was back in January 2017. After a short stay at Charlotte Jorst in USA he came back, and “disappeared” with an injury. Today the now 15 year old Lorenzo was back at international level together with Swedish Helgstrand Dressage Grand Prix rider Jeanna Högberg. They showed a very solid and strong performance and they suits each other really well and makes a nice over all picture.
With today’s performance they secured their first Olympic qualifier and looks like a valuable card for the Swedish team for the Olympics.
Bit tense halt, expressive with power diagonal, well balanced half passes, good halt with rein back, nice into passage, 1st piaffe at the spot, relaxed big extended walk, good collected walk, super active at the spot 2nd piaffe, good into canter, good 2 times, good extended canter, super balanced zigzag, bit tense 1 times, super quality 1st pirouette, bit big 2nd pirouette, good into trot, power diagonal, very nice final centerline, nice halt. 72,891%
