The pairing of Laura Bechtolsheimer and Mistral Hojris, a charismatic 1995 Danish Warmblood gelding affectionately called Alf, has made the dressage world take notice! In the 2012 Olympic Games in London, Bechtolsheimer and Mistral Hojris' strong performance helped their team earn the gold medal for Team Dressage. This marked the very first time Great Britain won a medal in dressage! This historic victory was made that much sweeter as it was won on the team's home turf. In the Individual Grand Prix Freestyle competition, Bechtolsheimer and Mistral Hojris continued to shine and earned the bronze medal.
