Valegro II Auction Launched to Raise Funds for NHS
Equestrian News :: Everything Horse
- Valegro II auction to raise vital funds launched by Dressage Anywhere
- Auction winner invited to meet world champion, Valegro
- Valegro II schooled by Carl Hester and Charlotte Dujardin, free of charge
An exciting FEI Pony prospect is coming up for auction. Full brother to VALEGRO but smaller and with only one leg. VALEGRO II, according to Carl Hester, has all the attributes to make a top international prospect. The hobby horse is receiving his education with Olympic riders, Carl Hester and Charlotte Dujardin at the moment. However, they now feel he is ready to take a smaller, yet ambitious rider to the very top as sadly he has not grown enough for either of them.
VALEGRO II was kindly donated by Laurel Designs https://www.laureldesigns.co.uk/ who was responsible for his creation. In further appreciation to the NHS, stabling and schooling at the Gloucestershire stables are being provided without charge.
The auction is now live and will run until 10 May with all proceeds going to the NHS Charities Urgent Appeal: https://www.jumblebee.co.uk/dressageanywhere.
The winning bidder and new owner will be invited to meet the World Champion VALEGRO to see the two brothers together when they collect Valegro II from Carl and Charlotte’s yard in Gloucestershire, once it’s safe to do so.
Dressage Anywhere has already raised over £1,000 for the NHS Charities Urgent Appeal from profits from the Hobby Horse Online Dressage Competition. There’s still time to join in and submit an entry for judging, just view the schedule and enter here: https://www.dressageanywhere.com/Home/Schedule.
