Charlotte Dujardin is a famed dressage rider, and known for her partnership with fabulous Valegro and more recently Gio with who she represented the UK with at the 3 Olympics winning medals each time. But Charlotte`s competition career began with stunning show pony Ardenhall Royal Secret (The 128cm mare, by Fairley Rembrandt out of Woodview Karelia) with whom she competed in riding pony classes winning numerous championships including victories at the Royal International Horse Show and the Horse Of The Year Show. Charlotte would take over the ride from her sister with who also won these championships and posted a remarkable run of 18 consecutive unbeaten victories.

After her successful career Ardenhall Royal Secret would be exported to Australia as a brood mare and would produce 14 foals many of who have also proved successful in show ring including Whitmere Palace Secret, who was champion under saddle at the Sydney Royal Easter show. Both Charlotte and her sister has very fond memories of Ardenhall Royal Secret who was a very special pony to sisters. Ardenhall Royal Secret passed away in 2018 at the age of 31.
