We are thrilled that Carl and Valegro’s joint owners Roly Luard and Anne Barrot have agreed to bring him along, he is legend and superstar and it is a rare chance for fans to get to see him in the flesh.

The opening evening of the Theraplate UK Liverpool International Horse Show is set for a celebration of equestrian and family entertainment.
Spectators will also witness a serious line up of dressage stars which include Charlotte Dujardin, Ulrik Molgaard, Nicki Crisp, and London and Rio Paralympic Gold Medallist Sophie Wells, all set to compete in the Equitop Myoplast sponsored Inter 1 Freestyle Dressage to Music.

Charlotte and Carl will be hosting a signing and meet & greet session before the show, with the shopping village, warm up arena and champagne bar open to all ticket holders from 12 noon.
