Valegro is TRULY the most beautiful horse of all time. His posture, his rhythm, his strength and glowing coat simply cannot be matched. That horse literally carries an aura about him, and what a great rider to bring out those qualities.

He lives at the same home with charlotte and carl, he is happy and sound and is regularly hacked out by alan his groom. I can’t think of another horse of this calibre that you could say the same. A true testament to the care and respect charlotte and carl give their horses.

@iridiumSerpent 3 года назад

You can tell Valegro is enjoying it the entire time

@Foxie770 2 года назад

He’s a showman and a ham for the camera. The best horses have the heart of an athlete. They know when it’s time to perform.

@theadultpantry7219 2 года назад

I've seen him live 3 times, once at the EC in Aarhus and twice at Olympia, the charisma that horse has and the capacity to hold an entire arena in unparalleled and it does not translate over screen. He is the Freddie Mercury of horses.

Valegro’s attitude is what makes him a champion apart from his athleticism. He’s such a confident, happy boi!! Love him so much

the horses doesnt look happy AT ALL. do you know that opening their mouth is a sign of pain?

@catneedham4913 3 года назад

@@midnight19488 Valegro is relaxed and not tense. Could he do the same routine bitless? Probably eventually. But unfortunately dressage hasn’t caught up to other equine sports. But if you look at his movement, he is relaxed. It’s very difficult if not impossible to get a horse to do that level of dressage well without the horse fully participating

The first dressage test shown of this video shows this horse has a lot more cadence than other horses at the same level. It makes for such a good piaffe.

Charlotte and Valegro has kind of ruined me when it comes to dressage 😅 No matter how well the pairs do, I just keep on thinking. Well nothing beats Charlotte and Valegro 😢 I miss seing them together, we probably won't see dressage like that in a while. Don't get me wrong Charlotte is a great rider, and she's really gone places with her other horses too. But no matter what, her and Valegro was a match made in heaven because these two together...just wow

Charlotte Dujardin and Carl Hester deserve their wins!! They ride and train with integrity!! ❤ Show me another horse that used his hindquarters like Valegro! The FEI is a joke. They are rewarding people, these days, who train using Rollkur. They turn a a blind eye to the cruelty. Charlotte Fry started with Carl, but unfortunately she left, and now trains with Rollkur. What is the FEI for anymore? 😕

I would of loved to see the story of how and when they bought him etc

@bulgarianfarmadventure7202 3 года назад

I remember Carl brought him out at a clinic held by a horse magazine in the UK. He said he bought him cheaply as a youngster he was too small for a dressage horse. Fortunately he grew, but I remember his trot was amazing as a youngster. If you search for Carl on You tube I'm sure there's a video of the clinic floating around, Carl talks about him on it while he is been rode.

@Pippipopfugl 2 года назад

He bought him at a auction in Holland for 4000 pound. He didn't make it as a stallion so he got him cheap :)

@gemproductions9648 2 года назад

You can read that in her autobiography

@lulabellegnostic8402 9 месяцев назад

Carl says he bought him ‘cheap’ because he was small and no one else wanted him.

@kscott2655 2 года назад

A piaffe is a stationary lifted trot. One pirouette was done at the trot/piaffe, the other at a canter. They are different gaits. I heard her say something like you mentioned, but I don't think there's a dressage movement by that name.

@happytraveller2122 2 года назад

Why is his mouth all foamy?

@larrybrown6068 2 года назад

Because his jaw is relaxed, if it was tense it would be dry.

@stephaniestrong8960 2 года назад

Additionally, when horses are relaxed, they salivate more. Thus having more saliva creates the foam.
