RIO DE JANEIRO -- Horses may not be psychic, but Charlotte Dujardin believes Valegro is close to it.Dujardin, a defending champion in two events, helped the British dressage team take second place after the second half of the grand prix at the Rio Olympics on Thursday with a score of 85.071 percent.Going in there today was all about going in there and enjoying it, Dujardin said. That was the biggest thing. I watched a lot of people look very white and nervous yesterday. I thought its my absolute passion, Ive got the horse of my life, Ive got the top trainer ... Ive got everything, I thought Ive got to go out there and Ive got to enjoy it.I can honestly say I came out there with a huge smile on my face. I was smiling before I even went in there. I cant help but smile when I ride Valegro; I think something and he does it. I laugh and I think god how does he know, I didnt even ask, I just thought it.Earlier, teammate Carl Hesters horse got spooked. Although the duo recovered, it left the British foursome -- which also included Spencer Wilton and Fiona Bigwood -- in second at the end of the day, at 79.252. The German team of Isabell Werth, Kristina Broring-Sprehe, Sonke Rothenberger and Dorothee Schneider leads at 81.295.The results are calculated using the average of the three best riders scores from each nation. The six best teams advance to Fridays Grand Prix Special, where the team medals are decided.Were catching them up, Dujardin said. I dont think it will be possible for gold but were going to give it a go. Weve all been in the arena once, tomorrow will be better for some of us.The United States is third, less than 1 percent above the Netherlands. Sweden and Denmark have also qualified for the team final.The individual medals are awarded Monday after the Grand Prix Freestyle, where the top 18 riders from the first two grand prix pick their own routine to perform with music.Dujardin is enjoying life in Rio away from the arena as well.The London Olympics, where she won team and individual gold, were her first games and she didnt stay in the village. This time the 31-year-old is relishing the full experience.Sometimes you forget that youre actually here to compete, she said. Were having such a good time, especially in the village, when youre amongst the worlds best athletes and youre like, `Oh my god, theres Nadal; oh, my god, theres Andy Murray; oh, my god, theres Serena Williams. ... Its so cool. Im star struck. I dont get star struck, but I am honestly star struck in there.And theres different shapes and sizes of people. Peoples thighs that I didnt even think they could get that big. Its brilliant, Im having such a good time. Ive been pin swapping, thats my cue. I go in there and Im like `have you got a pin?Dujardin, who admits her horse is a pig like me, was also incredulous about the food available in the village.The food hall is insane, she said. Its huge! I think were going to come away gaining weight! The queue for McDonalds every day! By 5 oclock theyve sold out of burgers, its queuing out the door, its ridiculous. But Im loving it, Im loving it. Kevin Durant Shoes Outlet . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web. Kevin Durant Shoes For Sale .
