Great Britain’s Lottie Fry has become the first rider in the history of the FEI World Championships to retain both individual titles.<\/b><\/p>\n
Again competing aboard Glamourdale, the 30-year-old claimed the Grand Prix Special title in Aachen, Germany, on Friday.<\/p>\n
That saw her become the first British rider to defend a World Championship title.<\/p>\n
It also set up the chance to become the first rider in 60 years of the competition to do the ‘double-double’ in the Grand Prix Freestyle event.<\/p>\n
She and Glamourdale put on a performance which earned a final score of 91.907% – just shy of their personal best.<\/p>\n
That put them into the lead and it proved to be enough to secure another gold in Aachen, with Fry having defended the titles she won in Herning, Denmark four years ago.<\/p>\n
“It’s been an amazing week,” said Fry. “Glammy’s performed beyond all expectations.<\/p>\n
“He was completely relaxed, super-happy, and we both enjoyed every second.<\/p>\n
“This was the best test of our lives – it was just the most amazing feeling in the world. I hope we continue to improve but, for now, this is incredible.”<\/p>\n
Becky Moody and Jagerbomb finished fifth overall, with Carl Hester and Fame seventh, with GB the only nation to have three riders in the top seven.<\/p>\n
GB’s eventing team is in first place heading into the final showjumping phase on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The World Championships is the first qualifier for the 2028 Olympics and GB’s dressage team secured a spot at LA28<\/a> on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
