SIXTEEN teams will line out at the Paris Olympic Games in eventing, with a further 11 countries represented by individual riders bringing the total starters to 65.

Standing out as the favourite once again is Britain, who have been on a medal rampage and look to claim a fifth Olympic team gold. Since 2017, they have won every team gold medal at Europeans (2017, 2019, 2021, 2023), one World championship title (2018), as well as gold at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Two of that Tokyo team return here; Laura Collett (London 52), and silver medallist Tom McEwen (JL Dublin). Ros Canter was the alternate athlete in Tokyo, a role filled by Yasmin Ingham (Banzai du Loir) this time around.
