Rose wore outfit at fancy dress equestrian event in Sydney‘It was just a bit of fun,’ says three-times Olympic medallist
The Australian showjumper Shane Rose has been stood down from competition after wearing a mankini during an equestrian event in Sydney.
Rose, a three-times Olympic medallist, has apologised for any offence caused by his outfit choice at the fancy dress event at Wallaby Hill last weekend. Equestrian Australia is reviewing the matter after concerns were raised about Rose’s unusual attire, but the governing body insist he has not been suspended.
