Enfield dressage star Charlotte Dujardin has been nominated for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award after a stellar 2014.
The 29-year-old won double gold at the World Equestrian Games in Normandy earlier this year and also helped win team silver, capping a memorable year which has already seen her crowned as Sunday Times/Sky Sports sportswoman of the year.
In doing so, Dujardin became the first ever dressage rider to concurrently hold double Olympic, European and World titles, cementing her place on the ten-strong shortlist.
She is joined on the shortlist, announced on Monday evening, by footballer Gareth Bale, boxer Carl Froch, golfer Rory McIlroy, formula one driver Lewis Hamilton, gymnast Max Whitlock, skeleton's Lizzy Yarnold, long-distance runner Jo Pavey, swimmer Adam Peaty and skiers Kelly Gallagher and Charlotte Evans.
The shortlist was compiled by a panel of former nominees, newspaper sports editors and television sport executives.
Dujardin is bidding to become only the fifth equestrian star to win the coveted title, following in the footsteps of AP McCoy (2010), Zara Phillips (2006), Prince Anne (1971) and David Broome (1960).
Voting will take place during the BBC Sports Personality of the Year live show on December 14.
