Charles refuses to scotch rumour he will revert to jumping for Britain

SHOW jumper Peter Charles yesterday said he would “rule nothing in, or, nothing out” when asked of speculation he is about to change nationality.

The Hampshire-based rider is at the centre of rumour since the middle of last week that he is about to revert to competing under the British flag.

Liverpool-born Charles originally competed for Britain, but with his parents from Dublin, he switched to Ireland and became an integral part of the squad under chef d’equipe Tommy Wade, including helping Ireland win European team and individual gold medals.
