Charlotte Dujardin breaks freestyle world record

By , Senior Reporter
Olympic champion Charlotte Dujardin sets a new freestyle world record at the Olympia 2014 event in London.

Charlotte Dujardin has recorded her second world record in the space of 24 hours after winning the freestyle event at Olympia 2014.

On Tuesday, Dujardin teamed with Valegro to set a new mark in the Grand Prix discipline but the 29-year-old showed on Wednesday that she wasn't satisfied with her latest achievement.

The pair beat her old record of 93.975% by improving to 94.3%, and Dujardin admitted afterwards that it had been the best performance during their time together.

Dujardin told BBC Sport: "It was definitely the ride of our lives. Valegro is just an incredible horse.

"He's just a true horse of a lifetime. It feels incredible to come here year after year and keep breaking world records."

Edward Gal, who was representing the Netherlands, finished in second place, almost 11% behind Dujardin and Valegro.
