This is the moment Princess Anne nearly loses control of her horse. Earlier in the day, brave Kate Middleton can be seen as a beacon of light in a new behind-the-scenes Trooping the Colour video.
A look into Princess Anne 's love of horses, following the Gatcombe Park incident. READ MORE: Princess Anne - who has been left hospitalised after reportedly being kicked by a horse at Gatcombe Park - has a long-standing bond with the animal, which she has also passed onto her daughter Zara Tindall .
The late Duke of Edinburgh is even thought to have once said of his daughter: 'If it doesn't fart or eat hay, she isn't interested.' An earlier accident, when Anne was just 14, saw the Princess crack a bone in the little finger of her hand after it was caught it in the rein of her pony.

In 2016, Princess Anne was awarded the Longines Ladies Award which officially marked her as a 'legend' of the equestrianism. Speaking of her daughter, Zara's impressive achievement in the sport, Anne added: 'I think it’s quite difficult to follow in your parent’s footsteps in the same sport. She’s very good. She’s very natural, and always found it easy to get on with different sorts of horses. It’s been a pleasure to watch.'
