Ros Canter’s rise to the top of eventing reads like a Hollywood script. She only moved up to five-star level in 2015 and just three years later was World Champion. The horse that took her there was All Star B, but he’s never been as easy ride and at 17.1hh he was certainly a challenge for the 5.2ft rider.

In this interview Ros reveals about how she nearly gave up on her dream of becoming a top eventer, due to her nerves on the cross-country, which she still battles with today. Hearing Ros talk so honestly about her nerves is an inspiration – and she also offers handy tips on riding at speed on cross-country.

Ros talks about:

· The system created by trainer British Eventing performance coach Chris Bartle, which helped conquer her demons and go on to become World Champion

· The importance of getting the basics right

· What makes All Star B such a super star

· Her hopes for making it to Tokyo and the plan she hopes will get her there

· The pressures of staying at the top of her sport

· The challenge of juggling motherhood with eventing

· The proudest moment for her own mum – and it’s not being crowned World Champion!

· Why eventing wasn’t always her career choice – and what made her change her mind

· Up-and-coming exiting new horses
