You certainly have to admire that guard, for trying to get that big beauty to settle down. He was lucky not to have distractions in the yard, so he could do a walk-a-bout. Bet those other guards, where surprised to see a vehicle in the arches too
From this video, it appears the quick neutral marches for this year's troop will be Albert Edward Kelly's Arromanches (12:58) and Major G.H. Willcocks' Guards Armoured Division (15:24). If that is indeed the case, then very likely they were selected to mark this year's 80th anniversary of the D-Day Landings at Normandy. Also judging by the run through of the abbreviated regimental quick marches (13:41- 15:20), for the second year in a row, all five Guards' regiments will each be fielding a company of 70 men and three officers for the troop. Kelly, the composer of Arromanches, participated in the D-Day landings at Arromanches, part of the Gold Beach area assigned to British forces for the allied invasion of Normandy. Wilcocks, who composed Guards' Armoured Division, was the director of music for the Band of the Irish Guards during WWII. During the war, the 2nd battalion Irish Guards (infantry) took on an armoured role and served with the Guards' Armoured Division. The battalion landed two miles east of Arromanches during the Normandy campaign.This year No.9 Company, 2nd battalion Irish Guards is slated to troop their King's colour.

He could hear the rehearsal with the band playing on the Parade ground and wanted to be part of it , that is after all what they are trained for .
This horse is walking like I do when my shoes are hurting my feet…
Is there something in that box the horses do not like?
The hoards of people at the other end of it I think (for some horses anyway).
