Ros Canter’s ride MHS Seventeen has been added to the British Olympic eventing entries, to replace Oliver Townend and Ballaghmor Class, who was withdrawn on 11 June having been unable to secure his final qualification for Paris 2024 due to a setback in his preparations this spring.

British Equestrian will name the previously selected 11 combinations, plus Ros and MHS Seventeen, to the FEI today (25 June) as Britain’s nominated Olympic eventing entries – only pairs on this list can eventually compete in Paris. Oliver still has Cooley Rosalent on the list following the withdrawal of Ballaghmor Class.
