Breeding[edit]
Glamourdale was bred by J.W. Rodenburg, a Dutch Breeder located in Oudekerk aan den Ijssl. His sire is the Rheinländer stallion Lord Leatherdale, by Lord Loxley. His dam, KWPN preferent prok mare Thuja, was sired by Negro and is thus a half sister to Olympic, World, and European Champion, as well as current record holder in all three dressage tests, Valegro.[2] He is currently owned by his sire's owners, Danish Olympian Anne van Olst and Gert-Jan van Olst.

Glamourdale is ridden by British Rider Charlotte Fry in competition.[5] He won the 7-year olds final at 2018 World Young Horse Championships in Ermelo, having finished 10th in the 5-year old class two years prior. [6]
In August 2022, at the 2022 FEI World Championships in Herning, again partnered with Fry, he won both the Grand Prix Special and Grand Prix Freestyle, breaking the 90% barrier in the latter, as well as securing Silver in the team competition.[1]

Glamourdale is also an active breeding stallion and has won several awards in this regard, such as winning top stallion at the 2014 Stallion Inspection and the Reserve Champion of the 2014 KWPN performance test.[3][4]
