Great Britain’s Lottie Fry and Glamourdale could not be stopped Saturday in the FEI Dressage World Cup Final Freestyle, taking home their second win of the week and championship title on a whopping 88.195% score.
Fry and the 15-year-old Dutch-bred stallion had already secured the win Friday, winning the World Cup Grand Prix on a score of 77.152%. In the Freestyle, they led by a nearly a 4-point margin.
Saturday’s results were a repeat podium from Friday’s Grand Prix. Germany’s Isabell Werth and DSP Quantaz were runner-up on a 84.365%. In third, was Norway’s Isabel Freese and Total Hope OLD on a 81.850% score.
“I want to present everyone a beautiful freestyle and give Glamourdale every possibility to be as good as he can be,” Fry said after her win Friday, ahead of the Freestyle competition. “He is such a personality and a real showman.”
Fry adds the 2025 FEI Dressage World Cup Final title to her long list of accolades, which includes being European Championship gold medalists and a previous world champion title. Saturday’s Freestyle performance was their career 34th international win.
All combinations in Friday’s Grand Prix, which included 17 horse and rider pairs, qualified for the Freestyle Final on Saturday.
Last year’s reigning FEI Finals champion, Patrick Kittel of Sweden, rode Forever Young HRH to a 80.115% score for fifth place in the Freestyle. American Kevin Kohmann and Dünensee cracked the top ten with a score of 75.535%.
