Victoria Scott-Legendre (born 10 September 1988 in Pietermaritzburg) is a South African eventing rider.[1]

In 2013, Victoria Scott relocated to France from South Africa to set up a base with Rodolphe Scherer and his team at Haras des Presnes in Saint-Gervais, Vendée, France. She now runs Victoria Scott and Edouard Legendre Eventing with her husband Edouard Legendre, who has represented France at World Cup events. Scott-Legendre competed at the 2018 World Equestrian Games in Tryon, North Carolina.[2]

In 2021, she was selected by South Africa to represent them at the delayed 2020 Summer Olympics aboard her horse Valtho des Peupliers.[3] Competing in Tokyo, she was ranked 34th after the second phase (cross-country), but eventually withdrew before the concluding phase.
