I had to look up long guard because I couldn't remember what it is: When The King is in London, the Guard consists of one Officer, one Corporal Major (who carries the Standard), two Non-Commissioned Officers, one Trumpeter and ten Troopers. This is known as a Long Guard. When His Majesty is not resident in London, the Guard is reduced to two Non-Commissioned Officers and ten Troopers.

Just FYI, horses can not only kick directly behind them, but can also kick out to the side as well. I am blessed to have a very kind hearted supportive horse, but he did kick me once. I had gone out to the pasture to bring him in and the bottom of my rain coat blew against his rear leg. The next thing I know is that I’m laying on the ground with my horse looking at me with a puzzled look. Thankfully, his foot just grazed my thigh. It was a complete accident, but I don’t think I wore that coat around him again. 😉

As for kicking inwards, horseflies tend to like the belly for a landing field, not to the exclusion of all else! In the box I saw the fly cross the doorway of the box and then generally buzzing around the courtyard, if it landed on his belly or he thought that it was going to that’s where he’d kick.

@@lyndaknight4152 tbh if they don’t already do so they should educate the Troopers about these things, too often the behaviour in the box could be easily dealt with if they only knew what to look for. I spend far too much time slowing down the video speed, enlarging the pic and rewinding and replaying and often it’s as plain as day or should be if you’re standing right in front of the animal, what is causing the trouble! With my own horses if I had them tied up for grooming or whatever and a horse-fly was around, I trained them to stand still, even when they were rolling their eyes and their lips were trembling, as soon as the fly landed I slapped it, when it hit the ground I trod on it. Ex-horsefly, happy horse! There was one vid a couple of months back where the horse was terrified and going around and around the box snorting etc. The Trooper on it didn’t notice the fly, the gates man came out a couple of times I believe, as did the camo bod, none of them did anything but chat to the Mounted Trooper yet the horse fly was in plain view, any one of them could’ve disposed of it.

@elainebrooksbank5281 6 ай бұрын

It doesn’t take much to spook a horse. I was once riding one who shied & bolted at the sight of a tin bath in the hedgerow. We’d passed the same tin bath on our way out on our hack without a problem but he wasn’t happy about it on the way back. But because a horse’s eyes work independently they can react differently from what they see through one eye to what they see out of the other. Their left eye is their rapid reaction eye - often with nippers why tourists on the left may get nipped quicker than those on the right . But it can mean that what they’re happy with seeing through their right eye could set them off when they see the same thing through their left eye. One of the reasons why horses are so unpredictable. Or Q10 may have had a sudden attack of the gripes. If they have digestive problems a sudden pain could cause a problem and have the horse kick out. Bet the trooper felt that tail flick though - I’ve been on the receiving end of one of those a few times. I’m surprised more tourists don’t get trampled. Because, no matter how expert horsemen & women the guards are, they’re still human so still have to have time to react when the horse acts out. And even then, if the horse doesn’t want to be controlled or doesn’t feel like being calmed down , then there’s not much they can do. There’s a reason why energy is measured in horsepower and not manpower.

@cynicalbeotch 6 ай бұрын

@elainebrooksbank5281 6 ай бұрын

@@cynicalbeotch it never ceases to amaze me how completely ignorant some of them are about how much damage a horse can cause. If they end up being trampled by a huge iron shod 17+ hh horse complete with rider & kit weighing in around 1000kg they’d probably never move again. But they stand there taking photos while the guards are trying to control a totally unpredictable horse. And knowing how quickly a horse can be spooked I’m appalled at people who stand their squishy toddlers right in front of the horse’s hooves for that all important holiday snap. Despite a horse having both monocular and binocular vision it has two blind spots - right behind its tail and under its head in front of its hooves. If it decides to prance around it just wouldn’t know they’d be there.

I saw this really early this morning. A lot of people have fixated on the way he's kicking with one hind, deciding there was something wrong with his leg but have watched footage several times I'm pretty sure hes got a tummy ache, a mild colic. Horses with stomach issues often kick a bit and I think that's what it is, and sometimes a change of stable can be enough to set it off. Also, ouch, that poor stableman getting a tail whip to the face.... that hurts(been there done that lol)

John. Thank you for narrating your videos which make them more interesting and entertaining. The Kings Horses and guards do a amazing job of controlling the crowds. Many tourists know nothing about horses and most of the Kings horses probably weigh between 1200-1600 pounds. I can see why the horses that are swarmed by tourist get upset. With the noise and activities surrounding them it is easy for them to have a melt down. When Q-10 “lost it” and was finished with entertaining the crowds, the manure in his box was slippery and it’s difficult for a guard to keep their footing trying to control the horse. That is why it was cleaned up. 🐎 🙂

Love the horses, hope Q.10 is okay! When you made that remark about the jogger, going through the box. Was thinking the same thing 😅.

Do any of the tourists really think about how the horse feels? Put a tourist, one at a time, for an hour. standing in a doorway? They'd have to endure endless folk coming up and touching, keeping close to them, with others waiting to do likewise with cameras in their faces! This has been allowed to go too far, and it is cruel that these wonderful horses are expected to endure it!

This guard is one of my favorites! Does anyone know his name? He is always patient when it is appropriate and yet VERY firm when necessary! Q10 is such a gentlemen with such a calm demeanor for such a regal animal. I pray he is put back into rotation soon!

I lived abroad for a year and was able to spend a week in London and visited Horse guard Palace. It's amazing and every tourist should add it to your bucket list! I love your comments 😅

Gorgeous animals! I wonder how many people really pay attention to sign. ❤❤❤

Something definitely bothered him the way he was kicking out. But even the biggest kindest gentle giants can get fed up with some of the tourist who they just crowd them sometimes

Q10 is indeed beautiful as are the police horses.

I have noticed something over the weeks I've watched your video, the officer with glasses loves those horses. He always goes up and pets them when on duty. Seemed natural for him to help get the horse back in place.

Q-ten keeps picking up his right hand leg like something's wrong.

Feel sorry for Q10 most probably felt crowded because of his placid nature everyone was drawn to him

It's all just a guess without being there and hands on but I am wondering if he might have developed a bit of gas colic. Lifting that hind leg is sometimes a sign of discomfort. He did not appear to be doing an actual kick, which are usually very quick and decisive, plus the way he held his tail up a few times, those are just things I noticed but could be totally off. Again, not being there hard to say for sure but given how kind the horse is usually, I would not be surprised if he had gotten a bit of gassy colic and was feeling a bit uncomfortable.

I agree. Besides which he was quite sound, moving on all 4 feet evenly without lameness.

@RainSinger7722 6 ай бұрын

YES! He’s an honest horse in pain. Colic, my guess.

Sparta's mark looks like a diamond. Love how it goes from one tourist over to the other tourist to sniff them.

Good evening, and thank for upload the two video and good work again. It be good if Titan and Q10 team up in the two box and the people won't not go up to them.

@justbystander770 6 ай бұрын

Some say maybe he was bitten and that was my thought to especially he was kicking with one leg. But also thought maybe he twisted something. Just hope he will be okay

Horses have feelings just like humans. They get aggravated with to many people putting their hands on them.
