Lottie Fry won the the dressage freestyle at the London International Horse Show with a score of 86.645%.

On stallion Glamourdale, the 28-year-old claimed victory in the fifth leg of the World Cup's Western European League at the ExCeL Centre to repeat her success at the event from 2022.

Fry finished clear of second-placed Isabel Freese of Norway and Dutchwoman Dinja van Liere in third.

"I have to say the feeling I had in here was something I've never felt before," Fry said at the presentation following her victory.

"He [Glamourdale] was absolutely on fire. I'm so grateful to be able to do that in London in front of this crowd."

Fry, who grew up near Driffield in Yorkshire but now lives and trains in the Netherlands, won bronze in the individual dressage at last summer's Olympic Games in Paris.

The final of the 2024–25 dressage World Cup season will be held in Basel next April.
