Team GBR

Rolette, owned by Daniel Paul, were selected to join the Olympic Show Jumping team in 2008. Rolette was sold abroad later in 2008, following an outstanding Olympic performance.

Ben describes Rolette as being, "easy going and willing as long as she is happy" but adds that, "she can be temperamental." He comments that one of his favourite things about her is the way she asks for an apple simply by pointing her nose at it – he claims she is very polite! However, she isn’t like that all the time and has been known to let everyone know when she is bad mood by kicking the side of the lorry.

Rolette's biggest success to date was winning the Grand Prix at Mechelen in Belguim, with Ben on board.
