Britain's equestrian stars compete at the London International Horse Show from 18-22 December - and you can watch live coverage on the BBC presented by Lee McKenzie.
Showjumping Olympic team gold medallists Ben Maher and Scott Brash are back competing on home soil.
The 41-year-old Maher will be looking to emulate his double of victories from last year, including the prestigious World Cup.
Scott Brash, 39, is back after finishing runner-up to Maher by only 0.62 seconds in a thrilling World Cup jump-off in 2023.
The third team member of the Paris Olympic-winning team, Harry Charles, is not competing having recently relocated to the United States.
The Whitaker dynasty are making their customary trip to London, with 69-year-old John returning having first competed at the show in 1976.
Other top British entries include Joe Stockdale, Matthew Sampson and 18-year-old debutant Maisy Williams.
Sweden's world showjumping champion Henrik von Eckermann and European champion Steve Guerdat of Switzerland head the international competitors.
Dressage World Cup entries include British world champion Charlotte Fry, who rides her Paris team and individual bronze medal-winning partner Glamourdale. The pair are favourites having won the World Cup at the show in 2022.
Fry, 28, is joined by fellow Olympic team bronze medallist Becky Moody with her homebred Jagerbomb. Making up the British contingent is 2012 Olympic team gold medallist Laura Tomlinson, national champion Lewis Carrier and London first-timer, 63-year-old Richard White.
Danish Olympic silver medallist Nanna Skodborg Merrald and Abigail Lyle, Ireland's sole dressage representative in Paris, are among a strong international field.
Joe Trunkfield and Locomotion contest the Puissance alongside Olympic eventer Gemma Stevens, who returns for her second attempt in the competition riding Envoy Merelsnest Z.
