Statement regarding Scott Brash’s participation at Rio

Tuesday 28 June 2016

We greatly regret that showjumper Scott Brash is unable to be selected to compete at the Rio 2016 Olympics. Scott's top two Olympic hopefuls Hello Sanctos (owned by Lady Kirkham and Lord and Lady Harris) and Hello M'Lady (owned by Lady Kirkham and Lady Harris) picked up minor injuries at the start of the season and are still not back into full competition work and therefore will be unable to reach full fitness in time for Rio.

Scott, Lord and Lady Harris and Lord and Lady Kirkham have commented; "We are extremely disappointed that we are unable to help Team GB in their quest to win another Team Gold medal at this year’s Olympics. We would like to take this opportunity to wish all of Team GB every success in Rio."
