Looking back at 2024

Last season Ros fulfilled a lifelong dream – to compete at the Olympic Games. 2024 was literally all about getting to Paris. Whilst it wasn’t all plain sailing, with a contested flag penalty across country, the British team did successfully retain their gold medal status – very much a box ticked.

Ros was back as World Number 1 for a few weeks in the summer and then, just a few weeks after Paris, she bagged her first Burghley win, again with Lordships Graffalo – posting the best ever finishing score at her ‘local’ event.

The season wound up with another trip to Pau, where Izilot DHI was second by a whisker and MHS Seventeen stepped up to five-star in style after great prep-runs at Bramham and Blair.

Ros is also very involved in the Performance Mentoring Programme, set up by the late, great Caroline Moore, and is one of the programme’s three mentors.

“Thank you to my family and team at home, you are all amazing, fun and dedicated and I couldn’t do it without you.”
