Following another record breaking season of success, dressage star, Charlotte Dujardin, has been nominated as one of the 10 finalists for the 2014 BBC Sports Personality of the Year Award. The winner will be announced during a televised live awards show on Sunday, 14th December 2014.
Dujardin, last week crowned The Sunday Times Sky Sports Sportswoman of the Year, is currently the reigning Olympic, European and World Champion, the first time a British rider has simultaneously held these three titles.
Charlotte’s outstanding achievements along with her bubbly personality make her a wonderful ambassador for the horse world, for dressage and for Absorbine horse care and grooming products, one of her main sponsors.
“I’m thrilled to be nominated for Sports Personality of the Year 2014 and especially being in the company of such incredible athletes. To be nominated for my achievements in this way is also thanks to the team we have behind us supporting our careers and I couldn’t be more grateful to the team at Absorbine for being such great sponsors and friends”, said Charlotte.
Chris Jacobi, General Manager, Equine Division at Absorbine said, “We are just delighted with this latest news from our sponsored rider. It goes to show how far you can get through determination and hard work which are traits we value very highly at Absorbine. We look forward to voting for Charlotte on the 14th December and continuing our support of her through next season”.
