Last year in October, Inaara secured the first position in the FEI Dressage World Dressage Challenge 2024, under 21 (South India). She finished with an impressive score of 79.530 riding Dasha Deluxe at the Selection Trial for Team India. A total of 18 best riders from across South India participated in the selection trial.
Reflecting on her journey, Inaara said:“The event took place in Bangalore in October 2024. There were unexpected cyclonic conditions which made the ground extremely slippery and difficult to ride in. I was determined to give my best as we had worked very hard to get to this point. The test went well, but I never expected us to be the only Indian team to top the rankings in South-East Asia.”
