DressageHub | Frederic Wandres and Bluetooth Win The Grand Prix Dressage Freestyle At The Personal Best Festival @DressageHub | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Last year, Euro Dressage stated that the Global Dressage Festival in Wellington, Fl should change its name to the Personal Best Festival. After watching the action yesterday I couldn't agree more.
The Grand Prix Freestyle offered up a lot of shaky rides, horses that have had a few months off and haven't been in front of a crowd in almost two years entered the Grand Prix Arena under the lights hotter than ever on a cool night in Florida. And yet.... the majority of the riders walked away with personal bests.
In the voice of Opera's favorite things ... you get a personal best and YOU get a personal best ... we all get a personal best!
I will say that I do LOVE the music for this freestyle from Fredric Wandres and Bluetooth!
Here is the press release....
The first “Friday Night Stars” evening freestyle of the 2022 Adequan® Global Dressage Festival (AGDF) in Wellington, Florida, did not disappoint. The highlight class of week one, the FEI World Cup™ Grand Prix Freestyle, presented by Lövsta Stuteri, produced top-drawer dressage, personal bests galore, and a winning score of over 81%. AGDF, which hosts seven weeks of CDI competition, runs through April 3.
The 34-year-old German rider Frederic Wandres pulled off another powerful, supple, and enchanting performance for 81.065% aboard Elena Knyaginicheva and Sergey Knyaginichev’s 12-year-old Bordeaux gelding Bluetooth OLD, who only started international grand prix in the spring of 2021.
“I felt super tonight,” said Wandres, who also topped the Grand Prix and whose freestyle was made by Michael Erdmann. “My best score was 79% in Aachen in the four-star CDI, but today 81% is really something fantastic and incredible.
