A total of 280 former racehorses were entered to compete at Aintree over the five days in classes for dressage, arena eventing, show jumping and showing at Europe's largest event exclusively for retrained racehorses. Other showing class winners included Thistlecrack (GB) (Kayf Tara {GB}), Limato (Ire) (Tagula {Ire}), and American (Fr) (Malinas {Ger}), while Goldream (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) was runner-up in a dressage class. The Queen's horse, First Receiver (GB) (New Approach {Ire}), won the Tattersalls RoR Novice Showing Series Championship final.

Di Arbuthnot, RoR Chief Executive, said, “The Jockey Club RoR National Championships is a very special event with an atmosphere like no other. It was also notable this year how many fabulous looking older horses we had competing, not least the 20-year-old winner of the Elite Performance Award for dressage, My Diss Sire (GB) (Vettori {Ire}). Our thanks again to The Jockey Club and Aintree for their support and we are already looking forward to next year.”
