It is with great sadness we hear of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.
She has not only been our longest serving monarch, but a lifelong lover of equines and equestrian sports and held great knowledge of breeding, bloodlines and our British native breeds.
She rode for most of her 9 decades for both state affairs and pleasure, and her unwavering love and enthusiasm for equines was well known across the world. She was presented with the International Equestrian Federation (FEI) Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014 for her dedication to the sport and they were clearly an important aspect of her life.
She will be sadly missed by all but leaves a tremendous legacy in her wake. RIP Our Queen.
