A star-studded field of showjumpers has been confirmed for this year's Royal Windsor Horse Show, featuring Olympic and European champions alongside rising talents. The CSI5* classes will take place in Berkshire with riders from Britain and around the world competing for major prizes including the Rolex grand prix.

British riders include world number two Scott Brash, world number four Ben Maher and teammates Matt Sampson, Adrian Whiteway, Jodie Hall McAteer and Joe Stockdale. Joe Stockdale returns with his mare Cacharel after injury and described her as better than before. Harry Charles, the 2024 Olympic gold medallist, brings Sherlock and Casquo Blue while seeking to improve on his third-place finish in last year's Rolex grand prix. The Whitaker family is represented by John, Robert and Jack Whitaker with several crowd-favourite horses including Gentlemen VH Veldhof and Cornets Olona.
