I don’t pretend to know anything about horses or saddles but it looks as if the rider is slipping to the right and doesn’t appear to be sitting centrally.
To her left.
it was caused by the horse freaking out previously
Yes, the tack slipped about as far as one can slip without entirely falling, and yes, a horse-smart/horse intuitive girl visiting them. Ultimately, there was not a lot the girl could do.
You’re right. They needed to straighten it.
Yes and he keeps slapping the Stirrups
I am a horse person, and I can tell you That horse isn’t frightened- it is uncomfortable! The rider us sitting unbalanced and the saddle seems to have shifted.
A horse person Or an Equestrian??
That's what I just thought too.
@@Therian-Equestrian Doesn’t matter in this case. Either should be able to confirm the observation.
@@Ketowski yea
They treat the horses like crap!!!!
Definitely a saddle issue. Should have been corrected immediately. If that horse spooked the rider would be unseated in no time.
More importantly, probably painful for the horse.
And all that kit they're both wearing would be expensive to repair!
He was slowly sliding off. The horse knew. It’s not a comfortable thing for the horse.
@@margaretstutts4362 The horse was also acting as if the bit was ill-fitting. Folks are saying in other comments that the horse needs more training, but I think its rider is the one that needs the training.
@@JamieM470 I don’t agree. The horse in fact knows the saddle isn’t cinched tightly enough. That is on the person. It hurts a horse to have an ill fitting saddle or one not put on correctly. The horse was acting like dude you’re going to fall off of me if you don’t fix it. The horse is very well trained to stand still at the gate for hours. I’ve never seen a Kings Guard horse who was doing his job while also doing things to clue the rider that something was right. The person who put the saddle on needs more training. Not the horse. He’d stand still for hours if everything was fine with the saddle.
Whoever geared the horse that day didn't do several things just right,sinching properly the saddle is everything.
Plus, the bit bar is really bothering him for some reason,the reins looked a little convoluted.
And the guard is a big dude even for that horse.
Some work days are rough,the girl gave him a moment of comfort.
I agree, I think the issue has to do with the bit.
@@MrMrajstein125 Yes, you're right! It's a VERY severe bit with a LOT of mechanical leverage. That's not at all necessary, even in the hands of an expert, but it's dangerous for the poor horse in the hands of a novice, which this rider most definately is! How it was allowed I just can't understand. It also needs to be adjusted 100% properly, and it most definately isn't. Something is twisted. It's hard to see, but the horse's reaction to it is easy to see. It's bothering him a lot, and that's not normal. I wish I could see it better.
You can see the shanks that extend above and below the bit, in an S shape. They multiply the force that is exerted when the rider pulls on the reins, as in a lever. The longer the shanks the more leverage is exerted, and since something is wrong there, I'm scared for the horse. I just can't believe the saddle and bridle were both unnoticed by anyone who is there!
How was this guy ever allowed to ride here? A person with the experience is needed, to be trusted with such a severe bit and on such a fine horse. Anyone with a bit of experience would be able to see in an instant that both saddle and bridle are out of adjustment! You and I both saw it immediately, in a picture taken at a distance!
This guy needs to be supervised, but he is obviously not, so there is a systemic problem. No decent horseman would have gotten on without seeing these problems and fixing them, and no decent horse operation would allow this guy to ride this horse with this equipment. If they can't take better care of their horses they don't deserve to have them.
I'm frightened for that poor sweet thing with an instrument of torture in his mouth, out of adjustment in heaven knows what way, and in the hands of not just a novice, but an idiot novice who might pull hard on the reins! I've really lost respect for these guys!
Looks like a woman on that horse to me….ive never seen one on them, only men, but it sure looks like a woman.
The bits are severe but look at how much the guard is tilting off center in the saddle.
@@angiemansfield9381There are alot of women on these horses now. Some of them look like pudgy little kids they are so short.
Is it me, or is the guard and saddle slipping, probably why the horse is freaking out a little, the weight and feel is spooking him/her
What a lovely moment with the girl ❤
the horse had been flailing around which caused the lady trooper to slide more to one side
I thought the same with saddle
I noticed that too
@@loganwhite3904if you watch closer at the beginning you can see the saddle had slipped a little to the left side of the horse . The guard should have called someone to fix it when it started to slip .
@CryMeARiver63 Yeah, it surprised me she didn't hit the button
Such a sweetheart for helping to calm the horse down. She has had some very good training for handling horses.
I think she just did what she thought needed done. It is doubtful she has any particular equestrian training.
You're right. He's sliding around. That's very dangerous and uncomfortable for the horse.
The girth is loose
@@macsloan58 I think she knows horses or ponies pretty well or that guardsman would have shoooed her away
@@macsloan58she definitely is familiar with calming down horses
Not a horse expert, but the horse looked uncomfortable rather than frightened. The saddle wasn't secure and there seemed to be an issue with his mouth too. That girl was very lovely though.
You did very well to notice the mouth, because most people did not! Even many riders who have some experience! Kudos to you!
@@cattymajiv thank you
And allmost looked like : horsegirl» easy its okey, u Are nice! Horse» okey…. I go with u girl❤… ichhhh Im stuck here, damn! Horse» i liked that girl, dud on my back cant do horses, they just sitt there all dressed up and look stu… this job is a waist of my abilities! I wish i can run away with that girl😂😂😂
😅thats what i imagian😅❤❤❤❤❤
The girth does need to be tightened but the saddle is more secure than you think. They're using a martingale which keeps the saddle from sliding too far back or sideways.
The big issue I see is that the bridle looks like it wasn't adjusted properly to the size of the horse's head. The noseband looks a little high and the bit does as well. That's probably why it keeps chewing on it and tossing its head. There's a gap between the front teeth & back ones that the bit should be resting in and it looks like it's right up against the molars.
These comments are funny. Everyone’s a tack expert. Cannot know the issue unless you are there…
the girl walks away and the horse walks to as if it wants more of her cuddles...
sweet girl.
No wonder he doesn't want to go out - the saddle is loose and the guard is sliding to the left and that is very uncomfortable for the horse - poor thing.
The bit seems to not be fitting well, too.
She's got the magic touch! (I hope the people that care for these horses check that horse's mouth and bit. Something is definitely bothering him (or her).
Very much so! What ever is wrong with that bit is really bugging him. I think this rider is incompetent, or far too inexperienced, and he screwed up a lot when tacking up.
The bit and attached items, like curb chain and noseband are out of adjustment, twisted, or tangled. The saddle of course is full of problems too, and is also causing the horse considrable discomfort, with that big sack of weight so unbalanced, but once the rider is mounted and out there he might not be allowed to dismount, and is certainly not allowed to partially untack, in order to fix it, so the poor horse has to suffer for who knows how long?
The rules need to be changed so horses won't have to suffer. Having a bit in your mouth is bad enough even when it's adjusted properly, but not allowing it to be fixed is nuts. And that type of bit is a very severe one with lots of mechanical leverage! It's far more severe than is necessary, under any circumstances. Unless the rider is a real expert with soft hands at all times, that can be very painful. It's unnecessarily cruel.
The royal family are supposed to be horse lovers. At least the Queen was. So why did she allow all this, just for the sake of show, when it could just as easily be made much more humane? I sure hope one hour at a time is the maximum time they are made to endure this. The torture of such beautiful, gentle, kind animals is not ok.
Do the actual King's Guard interact w/horses, off-duty? Care for, groom, feed/water, wash, exercise, etc., etc.? Having no intimate knowledge of equines, this would/could go a long way to better crowd interaction. Horse is an animal, first/foremost b4 "soldier". Take care of the animal, they could become better soldiers....(Or is it just me?)
English court uses chain bits. It’s not faulty, it’s just disgustingly cruel.
@@harrymiram6621they do, and this one is hopeless
It is her rider bothering her. The bit is irritating her, the saddle is not cinched correctly, the rider has the reins taught ( unnecessarily! ) all the while he continues to use his heels. Poor horse!!!
That soldier knows his saddle is not on properly, why on earth did he not correct it before the gate closed . Awkward for him and terrible for the poor horse .
i was gonna type the same thing.. he is lopsided i bet the horse was confused as most are controlled by the seat!
not easy when you are holding a sword...
That horse, like many others on the parade, is having DISCOMFORT WITH ITS 'BITS'.
And the saddle.
The saddle, girth is way too loose
Well If the rider was fully experienced he would not have been mounting at all! Right? And as he mounted he would have felt himself going to one side.
@witchhazel8583 - so true, I suppose - as a non rider, it does seem obvious though that some Guardsmens' horses keep "chewing" over the bits in their mouths suggesting great discomfort. . Am a great admirer of Alyssia Burton, who rides bareback with no reins and has great control over her mounts.
@@MaverickSeventySeven I haven't heard of her but I will check her out. Thank you for mentioning her! I greatly admire that too. It's sometimes called free riding, and Jesse Drent also does it. I love to watch him ride, and do Liberty training. He's so connected to his horses.
He's managed to turn around a stallion called Gaio that had been in bullfighting, and was traumatized by it. Gaio has been able to heal a lot now thanks to Jesse, and it's beautiful to see how close they are. He is such a kind and special person.
Edit: I just did a search for her here on YT. Her name is actually spelled Alycia Burton, but when I enterred it spelled the other way, I got her immediately anyway. And she looks amazing! So thank you for that info! I will now spend many more hours on her channel. As if I don't already spend most of my time watching horse videos. But I'm not able to ride at all lately, so I need that. Thanks again very much!
If the Queen was there, she would've had a thing or two to say about the saddle and the bit!
Was she a rider? I only knew she was a truck mechanic.
@@katho8472 always a horsewoman!!!
@@katho8472 Yes, the queen was a very avid horsewoman! She would be very ashamed at how much the horses care has seemed to slip. This looks to me like it's a systemic issue. An incompetent rider was poorly supervised, so where is that supervisors supervisor? And what else is being neglected as far as the horses's care goes?
@@katho8472yeah, her favourite horse was a lovely jet black fell pony :)
@@katho8472 you clearly do not know much about the Queen, she knows horses well.
What a kind young lady. Great job parents.
Such a sweet angel to comfort the horse, she obviously has a kind heart ❤️
She gave the horse tender loving care. God bless her 😊❤
These horses should no longer do this kind of tourist trap function in an area of London which is more stressful for them than was the case when I patted those horses as a child. A key stressor for them is when the double doors shut behind them denying them escape from the hostility ignorance, insensitivity and busyness they are confronted with in front of them. Also a horse gets stressed, incurs back and joint pain, when forced to stand carrying 12 stone or more on concrete without the release of frequent movement. A human sentry on foot is sufficient, keep horses for duties which involve movement at least.
Well said and well done. I have never seen these horses in action, but I absolutely do agree with what you have to say.
In addition to what we see here, involving great incompetence on at least 2 levels, maybe even 3, is the fact that while at the palace they are kept in a barn 24/7, which is very unhealthy for them physically and mentally.
I very much hope that they are only at the palace for a week at a time, and are rotated out, and sent to a farm where they are turned out in a pasture together 24/7, except for maybe a few hours a day when they are ridden or trained, vet checked, and have hooves trimmed. They should have about 3 days a week off too. It is good for them to be ridden and trained, and have human interactions, but they also need as much time as possible to duplicate their conditions in the wild. Otherwise their mental and physical health suffers.
Yes. Standing in 1 place is far worse on the bones, joints, muscles, than moving around on the same surface.
Yes! They are literally punishing these beautiful beasts and for WHAT??? My god, make some changes people! We are not living in the dark ages any longer or maybe the stupid humans are just creating more abusive patterns to allow others to see there’s nothing wrong with being abusive to animals or humans anymore, that’s the way this world is becoming more and more with each decade! 🤬💔🤬
That young lady is so sweet to comfort the horse. I’m surprised that she didn’t tell the soldier that he’s not properly seated on the horse. Time to go behind the door and fix that saddle. I don’t know anything about horses, but even I can see the horse is reacting to the rider/saddle situation.
Who knows. She may have told him that she noticed that he was sitting at s precarious angle and needed to adjust his saddle. This video doesn't have any audio to show the interactions that happened between them.
Might be me but it seemed that rider was listing to his/her left? I’m wondering if that saddle is tight enough
I said that saddle is slipping. Could be why the horse is a little anxious.
I thought that. I think the horse is uncomfortable and unbalanced rather than scared
At some point, he might slide under the horse with that loose saddle, because yeah, he is really leaning to the left. How does he not notice this?
Not just you. It’s not on tight enough. The horse is uncomfortable.
Spot on ! Horse knew something wasn’t right!
Hat on squint, saddle sliding, what a terrible turnout for the guards woman.
She wasn't fazed by the horse's head movements. Definitely knows her way around them.
The horse was all, "Come back! I want more loves!"
Ok. The guard needs to take the horse back and redo his saddle. Common sense
The horse watched her walk away ❤️
The rider looked worried and off balance, and the horse sensed his tension.
Horses and dogs reflect their handler's emotions and demeanor. Calm and in control is the show you must put on, or the critter gets fidgety.
Yep not scared more anxious horse
The rider is a female. Look closely and you will tell.
"Her" tension
Yeh. Guard is the new kid on the Block..
Always "cuddle" a new horse before jumping on.
The Girl knows it....❤
She is a next generation horse whisperer. Way cool to see how with just a few words and reassuring touch the horse settles down - even wants to follow her which is proof that she definitely has the touch. 💖💖💖
What a kind horse whisperer she is.
He’s not saddled properly and the horse knows it. Kudos to the wee girl but he should have regrouped before exiting.
She's not. Guard is a female. Which explains the situation 😂
That's not a scared horse, it's an uncomfortable one telling it's not-listening rider what's up. :')
The young lady certainly knows how to treat the majestic horse and you can see its appreciation. The guard should have gone back into the yard to deal with the saddle issue. They need to do more for the horse's comfort. In Morocco, the horses on guard duty stand in a sand box so they are not constantly on a hard surface.
How sweet she looked a natural around the beautiful things,.
I feel like the saddle is loose and the bit is too tight. She's a sweet girl to comfort the horse.
The rider needs to adjust the girth. That horse will NOT be a happy bunny if it has to have the saddle sliding around for too long. Some horses deliberately take a deep breath when the saddle is being fitted which then no longer fits properly when they breathe normally.
I can't believe a Kings guard dosn't even know his saddle not on correctly. How can you guard anything if you can't stay seated on your horse?
She does know her saddle is incorrect, but she doesn’t have a free hand to sort the issue because she has one hand in the reins and one hand holding out a big sword if you hadn’t noticed! All she can do is wait for one of the stable troops or the gatesman to come and see she needs assistance.
On duty they’re not allowed to put down their sword. One of these highly trained soldiers was thrown high into the air by a spooked horse the other week and he went flying over the horse and landed more or less flat on his back with a seriously hard thud. He couldn’t breathe as he was winded and couldn’t move because of the shock and pain, yet while he lay there helpless, his hand lightly scrabbled on the ground beside him for his sword - his priority - and managed to use his fingertips to creep it to his side and partially underneath himself while keeping his fingers on it.
THATS how dedicated to protecting the King and his estate, these men and women are.
The horses go through training for all these mishaps and eventualities. If you’re half hanging off the side if your horse, you stay hanging with one hand if your sword is drawn in the other.
These horses don’t freak out at anything the soldiers are doing. It’s the environment, transport and the public that’s too busy, crowded and noisy. Some days these horses get mauled by relentless tourists and they just get sick of them in their space.
The Horse Whisperer is at it again 👍🐎
Wow, if Princess Ann had been there, he probably would have got a right bollocking, ordered to dismount, and correct his tack. I hope the poor horse didn't end up with saddle or girth sores. I haven't ridden since I was a kid, but I still remember about picking up a horse's feet, to check for stone bruises etc, and then double checking all tack, before mounting. Correctly fitted tack ensues comfort for the horse, and a correct seat for the rider.
You are so right! This mess is a disaster from start to finish!
The guard should summoned help from the stables in order to tighten the girth
That saddle was not positioned correctly. I guess the horse breathed out when the rider tightened the strap.
Ahh makes sense
@@theoryglobe4486some horses are masters at it😊. And you can't really tell until the saddle starts slipping once you're on.
@@parkerbrown-nesbit1747 I really hope for the horses sake you don’t actually ride! If you seriously believe that it’s impossible to tell if the girth is tight enough until after mounting then you should stay on the ground.
Yes riders might mount up without tightening the girth properly but if done correctly before mounting riders will know if it’s tight enough. Should also be noted that with some weaklings it’s easier to tighten the girth fully with the rider on the saddle!
Agreed, I always tickle up under the back belly when saddling. It relaxes the horse who then breathes out and I can tighten the cinch properly.
@@theoryglobe4486 No it doesn't. The horse would have breathed in fattening his girth and then the girth strap would be too loose. It looked like uneven stirrups to me.
That guard is going to be looking at that horses belly if he doesn't get balanced and tighten that girth. Difficult to ride or even sit if you are upside down in the saddle.
*she
@@fashiondiva6972 The guard was a she??? I had no idea!
Agree about saddle. Placement is important. This horse is acting this way possibly due to back pain.
Entirely possible, and he definately is enduring great discomfort by having that heavy rider so lopsided up there for so long, while forced to just stand there and endure it!
The horse isn't frightened, it's just restless.
That rider is not centered on the horse. That saddle is putting pressure on the horse’s right side of the spine and extra pressure on the left back muscles. You’d think they could afford a saddle fitter and proper training of the guards. That poor horse is experiencing a lot of pressure and pain.
Horses do not act like this without reason. Look for the 'why'.
Sweet young lady ❤
Thanks for liking my comments
Push the red button!
Like other commenters, I also noticed that the saddle seemed to be slipping...but I feel another factor might be in play as well, one that I have seen in quite a few other videos, and that is what seem like ill-fitting bits. Many of these noble mounts are constantly worrying at the bit, and I feel their obvious discomfort contributes to a lot of the issues that arise (apart from the lack of a clear and wider boundary between the mounts and the throng of tourists).
That was a beautiful moment. Horses know children are loving human beings. The guard did great letting her calm the horse down and knew how to read her body language no danger. My sister be fore she passed had horses. They are beautiful animals!!
The horse may have been uncomfortable. The saddle was too loose. You could see how the guard had to keep shifting.
Loose girth. Saddle askew. Lower left stirrup indicates the rider’s weight slipping to the horse’s near-side. Rider also looks crooked. Saddle pad may be out of place too. Good little Pony Clubber, but still a potentially dangerous situation for all three of them.
Kindred spirits? Sometimes it takes a shy/fearful soul to recognize another & step in & everyone can settle down. Congratulations to the Kings Guardsman , that beautiful horse & that lovely stranger.
I think it's a Saddle problem. Horse can feel that something is off about it. ❤
Afraid before an audience….seems like a natural moment for this horse and human. What we share with Nature…
This little girl, it's a angel "travestida" of human being🙏❤️🙏.
You need to tighten the girth a bit. 1:26 How sweet! What a precious and beautiful thing she did for that fur baby! Dawe! 😭🤧❤ More tourists need to be like this girl!
How amazing and the guard never shouted amazing respect
Definitely sitting lopsided.
The saddle is loose.
Her saddle has slipped
Down the road she may be part of the King'sGuard.....
That girl was amazing! She knew all of the good spots to pet and scratch, too ☺️. G-d bless her for stepping in to help. The Guard and the horse both recognized that she knew what she was doing and welcomed her help. There is no better judge of character than a horse!
You can say God, nobody can stop you from doing it.
A very gifted young lady ❤❤
Wow, I know horses, hes looking pretty calm! John P.
Exactly what I thought, too. there's no fright nor fear. The horse is fidgety because horses will horse.
@@Potmesil04 A comfortable horse does not fidget like that. The horse was feeling the saddle being off-balance, along with the rider, and the bit probably wasn't fitted well. A comfortable and trained horse would stand on the spot, maybe take a step every now and then if bored, and itch, perhaps. Smell around, look around, listen. It would not fidget. We need to learn better. Horses are often misunderstood animals. We normalize stressed and uncomfortable horses because we're often too uncomfortable with changing to better fit the animal, more likely to fixate on the humans' convenience.
@@iclynnx How many horses do you have? For how many years have you had horses? My answers, I have 5, and my whole life. I'm 61 yrs. old. Pretty sure I know what I'm talking about and what I see. My horses aren't stressed and uncomfortable. They are horses, they have moods, they have personalities, they have preferences and opinions, and they act and react on them. All the time. That's why we horse people say horses are going to horse. We are in a partnership and work together. Plus, only one of you gets to freak out at a time and it's never your turn. We're aware of how their vision works, where their blind spots are, how their brains work. What a horse sees on his right does not correlate to the other half of his brain. That's why we have to train both sides. We can ride down a road and my mare is totally fine with the mailbox or trash barrel on her left side. Turn around and walk back and there is a sudden spook and shy with a dead stop at the same mailbox or trash barrel. That side of the brain didn't "see" it as being the same thing we just passed. We know these things; we adjust and adapt as necessary for their comfort and our safety.
@@Potmesil04 From your response it feels like you took it personally and ranted on something off-topic to try to feel better about yourself. Nobody said anything about horses not having personalities and yada yada. But a horse who has properly fitted tack and is trained well to feel comfortable in the enviroment they're subjected to, they won't display stress signals like stepping nervously around, tossing their head and opening their mouth wide.
Also, having horses does not equal being good with them. There are people who have had horses for years, who whip and beat them, and run them into walls to "teach them a lesson". So don't try to argue that you're better just because you have horses and is an old person. Arrogance is too common in equestrians. The more you know, the less you know, is how it goes.
@@iclynnx Nope, not personal. Just tried to educate you. It failed. Carry on.
I wasn't expecting to approve but she seems to know what she's doing.
Well at least with a bit of comfort from the young girl looked a bit better nice to see some one help and not just want a pic 😊🥰🤩
Horses are wonderful and compassionate animals. They can hear your heartbeat four feet away, sensing your fear or comfort.
Horse is nervous because the kid ON the Horse shouldn't be out there yet. Horse feels alone out there with 'John Snow' on his back.
It looked like the horse was going to follow her. If he could talk I bet it would be “hey, where you going? I need more scratchees”.
What a kind hearted Girl 💟
The saddle is off to the side.
Poor horse is obviously very uncomfortable.
It might have helped if this young man had sat straight & tightened his saddle & straightened the position.
Horse-whisperer to the rescue !
The saddle wasn't cinched up tight like it should have been and that scared the poor horse.
Poor horses 😢
The guard has obviously not retightened the girth strap after saddling and mounting as it is so evident that the saddle and rider are so far off centre on the horse and this is probably causing either pain or annoyance on the horses spine..hence the unsettleness of the horse..once mounted always check if your girth strap is tight as horses expand their bellies when saddling then exhale so always retighten. Young girl was sweet the way she handled the horse.
that child had a pure calm heart & the horse scensed it. i wish the queen allowed that girl back to help calm horses as her job at the castle. i would actually enjoy a job like that sadly, where i am from, Puerto Rico, there's a horse that my uncle's brother was given & is highly frightened of ppl but, once he saw me i gave the same instincts as the child, had, Pure calm heart. i no nothin' of horses b'4 i met the frieghtened horse but, i do now, after watchin' lots of movies on 'em. if, i go back to PR, i would like, to work w/ my uncle's brother's horse that was given to him, to show him, the horse, that he's got nothin' to fear, anymore.
That horse wasn't frightened, it was bored. It didn't understand why they had to just stand there. The girl entertained it.
Wonderful says it all
Looks like the saddle isn’t cinched properly
That girl knew what she was doing no fear doing a damn good job calming that beautiful horse.
In all these videos with the horse guards, the bit in the horses mouth always seem to bother the horse. They all seem to want to get rid of it or have it positioned differently. Am I right; I don't really know horses though...
You are very right! You did very well to notice, as a lot of people who say they are riders did not. There is a lot wrong with the bit in the horse's mouth, but I can't keep rewriting it all, and you might not care about the details. Basically this rider is a disaster from the word go!
Looks like saddle is not tight rider is sideways.
The horse got a support human! 😁
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the child in this clip?. She stepped up and did something when others passed on by.
I case I don’t know the difference between a calm horse and a very frightened one. Did I miss something?
I don't see any fear either. It's uncomfortable but not afraid.
EXACTLY!
That horse doesn’t look scared at all. He either really doesn’t want to just stand around or something is bothering him. Perhaps the girth is pinching him, there’s a problem with his bit, something is too tight, the soldier has too tight of a grip, the horse is hungry, etc.
This was a beautiful video.
Not so much the incompetent rider, but that was likely not their fault, but rather their superiors'. The horse and girl were both very beautiful. I loved how calm she was and so helpful to the horse. I hope she grows up to have horses of her own. I wonder if she knows the internet loves her.
The way that horse is mouthing that bit 👀👌
Saddles not tight enough way off
I can tell shes used to horses..
When the horse started to panic, the saddle slipped. He can't just leave his post to fix it. Someone has to relieve him first. The young lady got the horse calmer. She knew just exactly what to do. What a sweet girl.
"I dunno Dad, it looks pretty scary out there...Oh hey nice lady..."
She is the new horse whisperer.❤️🇬🇧
That guard is sitting very crooked. Might be pinching the horse's back
King's horses are not frightened, they are special trained. This young lady has a special touch the horse kind of liked.
I don’t know much about horses either, but that saddle looks like it needs tightened up!!!!
I was thinking the same: as if he gad forgotten to adjust the girth.
Sorry, this was a comment to the one before 😅
This is a beautiful event for the Kings Guard, the Horse and the little girl. Makes my heart happy. Great job all!
