Cian O’Connor fails in appeal over 'unsporting decision' that cost Ireland Olympic qualification

“I have no regrets. I tried everything possible and left no stone unturned in trying to seek fairness for what I feel was an unsporting decision."

Cian O'Connor and Horse Sport Ireland (HSI) have not been successful in their bid to overturn the results of the FEI European Jumping Championships in Germany.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport has found in favour of the original decision made by the ground judges and then the F.E.I Appeal Committee.
