Can I say how brilliant it is that they ride for us Team GB and not Holland or Germany , we are so privileged to have them represent our country , and more than that they do it right .....and it shows

An amazing horseman💞

The best!

Valegro, a "chunky, fat pony." That's funny.

This horse deserves a statue!!!!❤❤❤

I have a lot respect for Carl and Charlotte. They both spoke about how Valegro could have kept going. He was in good health and really enjoyed working. But they had so much gratitude for what he was able to bring to their life, that they decided to give everything they could back to him. 🤍

Where is valegro

what a cool man

I was listening waiting to hear what Valegros retirement would be like and when i heard him say he would still be ridden and worked but just not as hard and get to be a "fat pony" i was so delighted and happy! What wonderful owners and a beautiful companionship they all have.

But you considered selling this child for the money

I love Carl Hester.. Good man.

You didn't win shit last year talking about you won Olympia last year you didn't do a goddamn thing but sit your ass on top of that goddamn horse and the horse did all the work Nip Tuck won the Olympia you didn't win shit I bet you if you look up who won the Olympia last year your name is not the one coming up is the horse's name coming up it'll say Nip Tuck you didn't win shit you were allowed to sit in the saddle put your feet in the stirrups hold the reins and go along for the ride they needed a mannequin they couldn't find one so they came to you and that's all you were a mannequin the horse the one that was trained I don't think you train them because you can't ride them and train them at the same time someone has to give them accusing do the training from the ground work so therefore you were just filling in an empty seat at that particular time you didn't win shit you trying to make yourself above the young lady that took valegro to the top while you stood on the ground and look at her do her thing and you only wished that it would have been you riding valegro and that my friend is going to consume you the rest of your life because horses like Bella grow comes once every 500 years you'll be dead by then and so will I so we won't see it

I love the horse he is gorgeous the horse is one of a kind and a Dream Horse to have and he's a blessing to have and ENJOY !! But it always hits me that when anyone has a horse that is a star or S on an elite level everything is fine and dandy no problems no fies no arguments no Envy no nothing but if you study this man's facial expressions his body language the words he choose to answer with and how sometime he repeats the same words you cannot tell me that ever since this horse came into their lives their training facility into their team that it's been all roses in Dandy's there's no way in hell I've got three Championship quarter horses in my Stables alongside another 30 or 35 more horses some of mine most our clients and there's always going to be fights and arguments over who rides what horse and on what race they're going to race on my which race they would like to have but even though you put one jockey on a horse and that's the jacket that's going to ride that horse the other jockeys are going to be jealous they're going to wish they had the winning horse and you're always going to put and give more attention to the horses that are winning versus the ones that are up-and-coming or that just can't win but like he said the horse is going to be retired it's his time to shine that's basically how I took what he said and he just can't wait and that's just such a shame that you have a magnificent horse you're going to pull him out of competition when he's been sound all of this year's and why not set the bar extremely high for future horses to try to accomplish in Meet those goals and equal those goals or surpassed them but it's just this fellow here he makes everything seem like there's not one single problem whatsoever at all 0% and I'm going to say it now that's a big fat lie and then you got other horses that you're not paying attention to or given them the quality of time to give them their time to shine but you got owners paying for that and you're taking their money but yet you're concentrating your time on Jess 1 horse and I would say 70 80 90% of the time you're on valegro and the other horses are not getting the equal time and that's not fair to them because they're four years old and valegro is 11 he's already filled out and he's got his confirmation going he's grew muscular well the other horses could be taking that route if you work them and exercise them as much as you do valegro but today's man here it's not good to say you wish him to worst in life and that's not what I'm going to wish you but I wish she never wins a Olympic gold medal naive in a silver or bronze until he can collect gold what he's got bottled up inside and starts telling the truth when they asked him if the writer of valegro would give him advice his facial expression wanted to say like fuck know who the fuck is she to give me advice when I'm the one giving her advice and doing all of the training from the ground while she's just on top of the horse because she's the one that's riding the horse and he does not ride the horse in competitions nor has he ever I don't think and that is eating him up on the inside alive so he wants her out of the way ASAP he wants to work with the horse that he thinks he's got one that just may step up to the plate but you know what it's not going to happen you are carrying baggage and you've got it bottled up inside of you and until you learn to let that go you're not going to accomplish or succeed and what you want to point blank karma is a bitch stop talking like everything is fine and Dandy it may be at the place where the horses are at but you personally you got an issue with it and you won't admit it on camera and I hate a liar and I hate a two-faced that won't speak the truth and thing is people see it they think about it and they're mine they're judging but they don't say it out loud well my friend I don't keep it on the inside I said out loud and hopefully people will understand what I'm saying and speak the truth and say it out loud why hold it up on the inside and bottled up when you can release it in let your voice be heard it is what it is if he doesn't like you then guess what he just don't fucking like it that is fucking problem that he needs to fix and if he doesn't like it and he don't want to fix it and he's not willing to try and fix it then he can tya and that stands for tear your ass!! Look at his eyes he's lying the eyes talk body language his answers to the questions it's like muscle memory is repetitive answering and the same weigh same words just with The Different Twist but it all comes back to the same thing and that's what he's doing when you work with the horse it's all about muscle memory you can't work a horse in make a work off of bone memory it doesn't work that way it's all muscle memory and repetitions and a lot of patience and you have to know what you're doing I'm not saying he's a bad trainer he's a bad rider it's just that he didn't have the opportunity to be the one to shine with that horse by not only training him but about riding him and showing him off and getting all of the recognition and Glory that's what is eating his ass up alive on the inside and that's what he's got a bottled up and that's the fucking baggage that's eating his ass up alive on the inside and that's what he's got a bottled up and that's the fucking bag is he that's what is eating his ass up alive on the inside and that's what he's got a bottled up and that's the fucking baggage he has on his shoulders that is weighing him down.

How old is the horse now?

How amazing is Carl Hester?

A total class act. Now, as to who I am talking about? All of the above!

Much respect to Charlotte and Valegro for making such an awesome team. They worked beautifully together, is if they could read each other's minds. Valegro, enjoy your retirement for you have earned it!🐴🐴🐴

Sure like your white cars and black horses

Wow that horse in the left side, inlove with his / hers mark😍🥰

It`s gonna hurt a lot, when Valegro once passes..

I am actually jealous of the dedication & passion of "horse people", who doesn't need a good dose of inspiration.

Who else saw the Porsche's in the background

I just love how Carl speaks of Valegro as a human

Such grace, authenticity, brilliance, cheekiness, integrity, one of a kind, thank you Carl. BTW, love horses turned out alongside fowl including peacock !!

a true gentleman of the sport .....an interviewers dream guest.

" Johny Whitaker" one of the GREATEST Riders of a show jumping horse You Will Ever See. Good nite.

My mum knows him! He broke my mums horse
