A true gentle giant.❤️
A horse known as a “gentle giant” is to take part in the funeral procession of the Queen. Apollo the Drum Horse will be ridden by Lance Corporal Chris Diggle from the Band of the Household Cavalry.
The Lance Corporal said: “He’s a big lad, gentle giant that he is, but he does have his quirks – he can be naughty like most horses but he is lovely on the whole.” “The reins are attached through my stirrups which I have my legs in and because I usually have sticks in my hand . I have to control the horse with my legs and steer it that way.”
Lance Corporal Diggle said: “Some take longer than others and get on with it really well. It’s because of all the kit that they carry and the drums banging, some get through quicker, and some of it’s just a lot slower for them.”
