Loose Horse...

[lea840]

Did anyone else just see one of the black horses at the wedding gallop off down the road after ditching its rider?? it came into shot as the carriage went away from the camera lol

Ohhh there's always one isn't there lol

 

[cindydog]

Yes, just posted in the wedding, horses dont you just love them..

 

[mytwofriends]

Good old Sky+ - just had to rewind and yes, I saw it! The poor rider must feel mortified ....

I thought it was a loose horse, but it was so quick, I thought that my mind was playing tricks like they always say "never work with children or animals"

 

[tinap]

Yes saw it, it was being held & patted earlier on by its rider as the carriage went past, must have broke free after

 

[Dizzle]

Bugger, missed it!

Disappointed at the lack of bay horses, IMO the prettiest of colours!

 

[MrsMozart]

No chestnut mares... Can't think why not

 

[lea840]

I think ALL of the queens horses should be Chestnut mares... oh what wonderful TV entertainment that would be Hee Hee Hee

Someone will be in trouble for that, still if you can't take a joke, don't join. Lol.

Naughty ponies! There were 2 fall offs, they're almost as bad as me. Not the best behaved lot I'd say.

Am I the only person who noted that the police horses are ridden by people who can't post, ......its not a sitting trot when you bump and bang on the horses backs.

I noticed that too, glad you mentioned it first though, lol.

Didn't notice the police horses but the army guys can't post in their (ridiculous) outfits, their knees don't bend and the saddles are uncomfortable! The saddles have a kind of bouncy bit between bums and horse's backs if memory serves....

P.S Most of the army boys may not have been riding horses for very long either!

 

[Javabb94]

yes i noticed this!

my mum saw it first and i didnt believe her so she rewinded it to prove it to me!

naughty horsey!

Hope this works!!

Just seen the youtube clip - it doesn't look like it even had a rider on before it got free. Must have dumped the rider earlier..oops!

 

[Rosehip]

I thought I'd imagined it! Glad Im not halucinating! Someone is going to be in so much trouble!!

 

[Happy Hunter]

crikey - the you tube thing makes it look like a slow canter.
If only my Mare bolted that slowly without me - Currently she pegs it off Jollllllly quicker than that!!!

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Theres a link somewhere in SB showing that the horse infact slipped and sent its poor rider flying! Hope they were both ok.

ETS - found it!

We were awake at 2AM watching the BBC here in Texas and never heard a mention of the loose horse.We were toasting the newlyweds with shots of Corralejo. We all thought it must be the tequila and replayed the telecast.
At least we were drinking the good stuff.

I have heard there was a loose horse 'galloping' about, looks quite sedate to me! I think another mounted soldier caught it.

 

[MiJodsR2BlinkinTite]

Typical BBC, never said anything about it, just like the Grand National when there were fallers. What, do they think people are blind?

When some of the traffic started moving afterwards, I saw a vehicle pulling a horse trailer -possibly going to pick it up if it was injured - might have scraped itself on the tarmac when it fell over....

Na, the RV follows every troup of horses just in case. The horse was fine as was the (embarrassed) rider!
