Charlotte is a beautiful girl. I respect her and her hobby.
The more I see her photos, the more I like her.
Charlotte inherits her beauty from her mother and father.

How old is GI Joe? Is he a stallion or gelding? If he's a stallion, that could be part of her troubles. She has never jumped with a stallion before. They are difficult to work with, right? GI Joe is majestic but he might be better for a more experienced rider like Thierry Rozier, who jumps with him also. I know Charlotte has a lot of experience, but she has that long hiatus when she didn't ride at all, so in a way she could be like starting anew.

GI Joe is a gelding. I think, I can't say it exactly because I'm not precisily up to date of the alphabetics. But I think the horses of the year G are nearing or already are at the age of 10 and older.
When you're not jumping professionally it also takes time for a young horse to jump 1.20. And she has started out with Gi Joe at that height so no, it's not a fresh horse anymore.

I think stallions are easier to work with than mares, for example. Stallions are more easy-going than mares. And if Gi Joe isn't producing newcomers it isn't a stallion anymore. It's just not of a use and only a risk when he is not approved by the ascociation. And if you look at his muscles and especially the neck you can see it's a gelding. Stallions have a bigger neck and are more muscles at the front- and the back

It is very interesting about the physical differences of stallions and geldings. I didn't know those things. I believe Char & GI Joe were jumping the 1m20 as far back as the Valencia event, right? One more question: What is the "year G"?

Beautiful! I agree with queenofthelight, I respect her and her hobby.
There's no single bad picture of her. Great girl.

^She is pointing @ something with her right hand, as if showing it as evidence for her point. She and that man next to her are having an engaging debate.

The horse books like KWPN, Hannoveraan, Holsteiner and quite a lot more have a rule for newborn horses who's names all have to start with the same first letter. This year it was the turn to the 'I' for the KWPN. It's easier for potentional buyers and everybody knows which year the horse comes from.

Here you can see the difference between a gelding and a stallion;
Gelding; http://www.dressuurstal.be/images/20..._AKC_7251b.jpg
Stallion; http://www.dressage-news.com/wp-cont...s_JB_38271.jpg

Especially the difference of the necks are quite evident. And not to mention the presence both are holding. The gelding is more relaxed and trying less to impress while the black stallion is more out there. He still has those hormons to impress mares and geldings don't have that need anymore. That also depends on the time of the castration. Older horses who are getting castrated have that more than horses castrated at two. The same goes for the muscles. The younger they get castrated, the less evident muscles they get. They loose the thickness and muscle-work in their necks and at the front and back.

Now this are two dressage horses so they are also differently build horses. The difference between jumping gelding and stallions is just as evident.

Charlotte gave an interview to the Italian magazine "La Stampa",
(the Hola link talks about that as well)
there she announced that she founded an eco-magazine.
"Ever Manifesto" is the 20-page publication on environmentally
friendly applications in various fields, including fashion and art.
The magazine is presented in the northern Italian town of Biella,
in the context of the fashion show "Fashion Cittadellarte"

The magazine will also be available online. The first number is
financed by the Italian Loro Piana cashmere producers.

"The newspaper is published in connection with major events
that are associated with fashion, design and architecture.
Depending on contributions from renowned experts and journalists
will be published. Our goal is to raise awareness among companies
on environmental issues. Many big brands have lost customers
because they exploited minors," said Charlotte.

Iceflower, Charlotte's photos are great!
She is beautiful and lovely, the main thing is that Charlotte is natural in each action and you can see it naturally at these photos.

It's good to hear that she cares about environment and tries to do something about it, from one of her passions: fashion.
Thanks for the article, asturiana

Thank you for the interview, she seems to be very self-confident. How good a woman in her position is aware of worldwide problems and not just a consumer fashionista. With her money, she could just care about shopping and partying, like others do. I hope this is the beginning of many projects and that she becomes even more involved.
