Charlotte Dujardin says it feels "surreal" she is on the cusp of becoming Britain’s most decorated female Olympian.
Dujardin believes she has a "really good chance" of success at the Paris Games, where she will compete in both the individual dressage and team event alongside Carl Hester and world champion Lottie Fry. "For me it's showing her that actually most important for me is to enjoy it. I don't want it to be a stressful event," she said.
Dujardin announced herself to the equestrian world and beyond at the London 2012 Olympics when she won team and individual gold medals on Valegro. The pair went on to win individual gold and team silver four years later in Rio.This summer she will be riding Imhotep - nicknamed Pete - who she describes as "fantastic".
