Dreams dashed: Qabil Ambak got an invite for the Tokyo Olympics equestrian competition but had to forgo the trip as he did not meet certain qualification requirements.

PETALING JAYA: It was a heart-breaking end to Qabil Ambak’s hopes of becoming the first Malaysian to compete in the Olympics equestrian competition after he ran out of time to meet the eligibility requirements set by the world body.
