Paralympian Profile
Not many people can claim to possess a 100% Paralympics or Olympics record, but Para-Dressage competitor Lee Pearson has just that.
Pearson won gold in the Dressage, Freestyle dressage and Team dressage events in Sydney, Athens and Beijing - giving him an incredible return of nine gold medals in three Games. Similar success in London would take him above wheelchair great Tanni Grey-Thompson and leave him just behind swimmer Mike Kenny (with 16) on the list of British Paralympic gold medal winners.
