Rosalind Canter welcomes first born and is already making plans for the end of eventing season.
World champion eventer Ros Canter and her partner Chris McAleese have welcomed their first child. Ros gave birth to a baby girl at 1am on 8 July, six days after her due date

“There was a lot of anticipation waiting for her in the last six days,” said Ros. “We’ve got some name ideas but we’re getting to know her at the moment. I’m not the most decisive person so it’s taking me a while to make a decision.”

“She’s a very content baby and a happy little girl, she eats well and sleeps well. We’ve been very lucky, she’s been as easy as I think it can be when you have a new baby. Chris has been great, he’s very hands-on on and supportive.”

“I’m making plans for the back end of the season and hope to be out eventing with a few horses. The big thing for me is I don’t want to come back before I’m ready – I definitely plan to get out but I have no set date.” Ros said the Tokyo Olympics next year are always on her mind.
