GREENWICH added another milestone to its illustrious history today - Great Britain's first ever team dressage Olympic gold.
In fact, the Brits have never even won a medal in the somewhat baffling event which sees horses marked on a series of graceful dance-like movements, but today changed all that.
Watched on by the Princess Royal, the Brits were helped on their way by Carl Hester on his horse Uthopia, picking up a whopping 80.540 per cent for their routine - well ahead of rivals Germany.
Next up was Laura Bechtolsheimer with a fine display scores 77.873 per cent on Mistral Hojris to keep Team GB's noses in front.
Germany's Kristina Sprehe, rated as their top rider, was expected to set a real benchmark with her routine, needing 81 per cent or more, but minor losses of control meant she fell short. Judges awarded her 78.952 per cent.
By the time British rider Charlotte Dujardin entered the arena on Valegro, Team GB looked nailed on for a gold - our 20th of the Games so far.
And she did not disappoint with a hypnotic display which got her a mammoth 82.162 per cent - and meant Britain saw its second golden Greenwich moment in as many days.
It left the team on a total of 79.749 per cent - miles ahead of the Germans' 78.216.
