Dimanche, \u00e0 Malines, la K\u00fcr en musique comptant pour la Coupe du monde avait une saveur toute particuli\u00e8re. Ce n\u2019\u00e9tait pas seulement une nouvelle page de sport qui s\u2019\u00e9crivait, mais une histoire d\u2019amour, de confiance et de haut niveau qui se refermait. Botticelli, le cheval de c\u0153ur de Charlotte Defalque<\/strong>, tirait sa r\u00e9v\u00e9rence \u00e0 19 ans, l\u00e0 o\u00f9 tout a tant compt\u00e9 : en Belgique, devant \u201cleur\u201d public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les 75,475 % et la huiti\u00e8me place n\u2019avaient finalement qu\u2019une importance relative. Aujourd’hui, l\u2019essentiel \u00e9tait ailleurs. \u00ab C\u2019\u00e9tait l\u00e9gitime d\u2019\u00eatre \u00e9mue. Je le suis encore en en parlant \u00bb, confie Charlotte. \u00ab Nous avions d\u00e9cid\u00e9 que Botticelli ferait sa derni\u00e8re comp\u00e9tition sportive \u00e0 Malines. C\u2019\u00e9tait donc notre ultime \u00e9preuve ensemble\u2026 et on termine en beaut\u00e9. C\u2019est une grande page qui se tourne : plus de treize, presque quatorze ans ensemble ! \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De jeunes chevaux au plus haut niveau<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quand Charlotte remonte le fil du temps, elle sourit encore \u00e0 l\u2019id\u00e9e qu\u2019un jour quelqu\u2019un lui a demand\u00e9 si elle pensait aux Jeux olympiques. \u00ab J\u2019avais \u00e9clat\u00e9 de rire ! \u00bb Et pourtant, au fil des ann\u00e9es, le couple s\u2019est impos\u00e9 comme l\u2019un des piliers du dressage belge. Pr\u00e8s de 200 d\u00e9parts (199. Elle a compt), des podiums nationaux et internationaux, des titres, une qualification historique de l\u2019\u00e9quipe belge pour les Jeux, des performances marquantes en Coupes des Nations et aux Europ\u00e9ens\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab J\u2019ai eu \u00e9norm\u00e9ment de chance d\u2019avoir ce compagnon de vie qui m\u2019a permis d\u2019atteindre le niveau ultime dont tout cavalier r\u00eave \u00bb, dit-elle avec gratitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un cheval de caract\u00e8re\u2026 et de talent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Botticelli, c\u2019est un temp\u00e9rament. \u00ab Il a \u00e9norm\u00e9ment de caract\u00e8re, dans le bon comme dans le mauvais sens parfois ! Mais c\u2019est ce qui nous a permis d\u2019aller si loin \u00bb, sourit Charlotte. Piaffer, passage, \u00e9nergie, intelligence\u2026 \u00ab On peut dire que c\u2019est un surdou\u00e9. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Et puis il y a ce lien tr\u00e8s fort. \u00c0 Malines, toute la salle \u00e9tait suspendue \u00e0 cette derni\u00e8re reprise. \u00ab C\u2019est tr\u00e8s touchant de voir qu\u2019il a marqu\u00e9 les esprits. Les gens nous associent : \u201cCharlotte et Botticelli\u201d. Je pense que cela explique l\u2019\u00e9motion g\u00e9n\u00e9rale. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une derni\u00e8re reprise, pour profiter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charlotte savait qu\u2019en pensant trop \u00e0 l\u2019instant, l\u2019\u00e9motion l\u2019emporterait. Alors elle a choisi de vivre pleinement cette ultime danse. \u00ab Au moment d\u2019entrer dans le rectangle, j\u2019ai r\u00e9alis\u00e9 : voil\u00e0, c\u2019est la derni\u00e8re. Alors je me suis dit : profite. Et c\u2019est ce que j\u2019ai fait. Terminer par une freestyle Coupe du monde, en Belgique, devant notre public, c\u2019\u00e9tait la cerise sur le g\u00e2teau. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dans les tribunes et en bord de piste, les larmes aux yeux, leurs proches avaient fait le d\u00e9placement pour partager ce moment : Larissa Pauluis<\/strong>, son amie Justin Verboomen<\/strong>, Domien Michiels<\/strong>, le chef d\u2019\u00e9quipe Jeroen Van Lent<\/strong>\u2026 mais aussi celle qui, au-del\u00e0 d\u2019\u00eatre propri\u00e9taire du cheval, est un pilier de l\u2019aventure : la maman de Charlotte, Marie-France Defalque-Scohier.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une histoire de famille<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour Marie-France, l\u2019\u00e9motion est immense. \u00ab Je pense que c\u2019est moi qui ai transmis la passion de l\u2019\u00e9quitation \u00e0 Charlotte. Nous avons tout commenc\u00e9 ensemble. Quand on voit tout ce que ce cheval a pu nous offrir\u2026 Nous avons eu une chance folle de pouvoir franchir toutes les \u00e9tapes avec le m\u00eame cheval. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elle se souvient encore du coup de foudre qu\u2019a \u00e9t\u00e9 Botticelli. \u00ab Charlotte n\u2019a jamais essay\u00e9 d\u2019autres chevaux. Il \u00e9tait canaille, joueur, espi\u00e8gle\u2026 et il a tout de suite impos\u00e9 sa personnalit\u00e9. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les souvenirs affluent : le premier titre de championne de Belgique, ce voyage incroyable en avion vers Duba\u00ef, le Top 6 en jeunes cavaliers\u2026 \u00ab Ce sont des moments exceptionnels, que peu de personnes ont la chance de vivre. Je suis tr\u00e8s reconnaissante pour tout ce que cette aventure nous a apport\u00e9. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une retraite choisie, et douce<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour Botticelli, c\u2019est une vraie retraite sportive. \u00ab Je voulais arr\u00eater sur de belles notes \u00bb, explique Charlotte. Le crack restera \u00e0 la maison, fid\u00e8le \u00e0 sa routine, avec du travail l\u00e9ger \u00ab sans pression \u00bb, parce qu\u2019il aime \u00e7a. \u00ab Il serait malheureux si, du jour au lendemain, il ne faisait plus rien. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quant \u00e0 Charlotte, il faudra apprendre \u00e0 tourner la page, sans jamais vraiment refermer le livre. Elle poursuivra en international avec Valentin et ses jeunes chevaux en progression. \u00ab Botticelli va simplement laisser un peu de place aux autres. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Defalque<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deux moments grav\u00e9s \u00e0 jamais<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u2019il fallait retenir deux souvenirs ? Charlotte cite la 6e place aux Europ\u00e9ens d\u2019Oliva Nova en jeunes cavaliers, et ce personal best \u00e0 Riesenbeck qui permet \u00e0 la Belgique de d\u00e9crocher sa qualification olympique. \u00ab C\u2019\u00e9tait historique pour notre pays. \u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c0 Malines, la derni\u00e8re note de musique a r\u00e9sonn\u00e9 comme un salut. Il n\u2019y avait pas que des larmes dans les yeux : il y avait aussi beaucoup de fiert\u00e9, de reconnaissance et de tendresse. Parce qu\u2019au-del\u00e0 des chiffres, l\u2019histoire de Charlotte et Botticelli restera celle d\u2019un couple qui aura grandi ensemble pour \u00e9crire quelques-unes des plus belles pages du dressage belge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
