Think dressage can’t get a crowd riled up, whistling and clapping to the music? Then you weren’t at the Central Park Horse Show on Sept. 20, where some of the best riders in the world piaffed and passaged under the city lights in the $40,000 Central Park Dressage Challenge, presented by Axel Johnson AB.

Five-time Olympic gold medalist from Germany, Isabell Werth, showed why she’s the best in the business with a stunning ride aboard El Santo NW to a mixture of David Bowie songs that had the spectators dancing along in their seats as she rode to a score of 82.04 percent.

“I said ‘It can’t be done,’” Bloomberg said. “I told him that every year someone calls me and I tell them ‘Good luck and I’d love to be there and I’ll be supportive, but I’m not really sure it’ll ever happen.’”
