When and where did you see it? I sat through this entire video because of you.

I loved watching the horses being loaded! The last one, in the second lorry (not sure of the spelling on lorry), the fellow who loaded him, took off the headstall, and gave him a KISS & hug before getting off... That was SO SWEET. I can understand how people get attached to these marvelous steeds... I would kiss them too! BTW thank you gail and others who corrected my spelling of "lory"- I edited my comment and feel much better seeing it righted as "lorry." MANY THANKS!

This isn’t a slant load. They are loaded straight but side by side. I don’t like this trailer. It’s too closed in, not enough ventilation, and the horses must get stressed because of way they are loaded they can’t shift their weight easily.

The horses are gorgeous! They act like they feel so much better… saddles off leaving for the day

So nice when the tourists behave well.

I think it's so that the mounted guards dismount at the same time. The first one on the horses neck means swing you right leg over leaving you with just your left foot in the stirrup and the second on the saddle is to take your left foot out of the stirrup and dismount. Like everything in the army it's done to look professionnel and smart.

The mounted guards on duty in the sentry boxes are from three different regiments. The ones wearing breastplates, white trousers, and long black boots, are from either the Lifeguards or the Blues and Royals. The Lifeguards wear red jackets and have white plumes on their helmets. The Blues and Royals wear black jackets and have red plumes on their helmets. These are their ceremonial dress uniforms, and their normal uniform is the khaki camouflage one as seen in the part of the video where the guards are loading their horses onto the horse boxes, ready for their annual trip to the seaside in Norfolk. They usually wear a black beret with their khakis. While the two Guards regiments are away, the guard duty is taken over by the Royal Horse Artillery company, who normally fire the big guns for birthday salutes etc in Hyde Park. They wear navy jackets with lots of gold-coloured trim on the front, black trousers with a red stripe down the outside of the leg, and hats which look like upturned plantpots, and which have a red flap on one side from the crown. I hope this is of some help to you Liz. 🙂

If we mean the same thing, then this is not a scar, but an imprint in the coat where the saddle has been. Apparently it was just removed shortly before transportation.
