World Cup Grand Prix Freestyle

I think you are correct, it is Freestyle.

Kür means “Übung, deren einzelne Teile der Sportler, die Sportlerin nach freier Wahl zusammenstellen kann” according to Duden (https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Kuer) , hence it is a presentation put together by free choice (freestyle).

In Wikipedia, Simone Pearce is said to hold “the Australian dressage records in the Grand Prix, Grand Prix Special and Grand Prix Freestyle”.

These two news articles refer to the same event, the CDI Achleiten in Austria:

Australia’s Simone Pearce & Amandori Win Achleiten CDI4* Grand Prix Freestyle for Pair’s 4th Straight Victory (29 May 2021)

Gestüt Sprehes australische Stallreiterin Simone Pearce dominiert die Kür-Tour beim CDI Achleiten in Österreich. (30 May 2021)
https://www.st-georg.de/news/dressur/achleiten-simone-pearce...


Wordreference also lists “Kür” as an option for freestyle: https://www.wordreference.com/ende/freestyle


So yes, I think it is Freestyle
Example sentence:
