‘S-HERTOGENBOSCH, Netherlands, Mar. 15, 2025–Charlotte “Lottie” Fry of Great Britain and Glamourdale won the World Cup Grand Prix Freestyle Saturday within a fraction of 90% to insure a start for the World Championship partnership in the Final in three weeks.

Lottie and the 14-year-old stallion  were awarded 89.705% % for the victory a day after claiming the Grand Prix a day earlier and enough to place fourth in the Western European League that gets to send at least nine combinations to the championship at Basel, Switzerland the first week of April.

Lottie, based in the Netherlands, and Glamourdale have accumulated medals at Olympics, World, European and Young Horse Championships but was eliminated from the World Cup on Everdale last year.

Becky Moody on her 11-year-old Jagerbomb, a last-minute addition to Britain’s team at the Paris Olympics, was runner-up on a personal best 87.545%.

Belgium’s Justin Verboomen on the nine-year-old stallion Zonik Plus placed third on 84.160%, also a personal best.

Isabell Werth, the German superstar, remained atop the rankings when placed fourth on DSP Quantaz on 82.415%.

The likely starters for Western Europe are still undecided because of issues outside competition such as the decision by Blue Hors of Denmark to suspend showing of its horses that could deprive stable rider Nanna Skodborg Merrald of a start.

North America with three places and Central Europe with two, both of whose placings are decided by competition results, are already set.
