DescriptionIrish show jumper Cian O'Connor insisted Monday he's done nothing wrong even though the sport's governing body ruled he should be stripped of his Olympic gold medal following his horse's positive drug test.

The International Equestrian Federation ruled Sunday that O'Connor should lose his title because his horse, Waterford Crystal, tested positive for traces of two prohibited drugs. O'Connor won the individual show jumping event for Ireland's only medal at the 2004 Athens Games.
