When will your favourites be riding their freestyle tests at London International?


  • The London International Horse Show 2024 dressage freestyle times for the FEI World Cup qualifier, presented by Bret Willson Dressage International Ltd and supported by Horse & Hound, have been released ahead of tomorrow evening’s performances (Thursday, 19 December).

    The grand prix freestyle will determine the final standings for this leg of the Western European League World Cup qualifiers, with all riders starting on a blank slate.

    While the top 15 riders from the grand prix typically qualify for the freestyle, a late withdrawal by Ireland’s Abi Lyle and Giraldo reduced the starting field to 14. This eliminated any risk of not making the final cut, as combinations only needed to achieve the minimum score of 60%, which all 14 riders did.

    All eyes will be on the grand prix winner Becky Moody and her 10-year-old gelding Jagerbomb. Having scored 76.6% this morning to win the grand prix, they will be looking to cement their position at the top of the leaderboard when they take to the floor at 9.30pm.

    Laura Tomlinson and her London debutant Soegaards Bon Royal will get the action underway at 7.25pm, while 2022 champions Lottie Fry and Glamourdale will look to improve on their third-place finish in the grand prix when they take to the floor at 9.10pm.
