household cavalry

The route was lined by troopers on foot from the Household Cavalry's Life Guards and Blues and Royals.

The horses were part of the Household Cavalry, the ceremonial guard of the monarch and a feature of state functions in London.

Three of the Household Cavalry horses that were injured after they bolted through London are likely to take part in the King's Birthday Parade later this month.

The Life Guards of the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment were on their daily morning exercise ride in Belgravia when their horses were spooked by construction rubble being dropped through a plastic tunnel from height.

They were on an exercise with five other horses and six soldiers from the Household Cavalry in Belgravia when it happened on 24 April.
