I feel for the Guard who was thrown off his horse and the horse that was injured. I think it’s about time these poor horses and guards are shown more respect and stop the incessant constant touching and teasing the horses all the time. I think the horses have had enough. Give them space for goodness sake. Hope theGuard and horses are ok.

Unfortunately tourists think it's Disney World, and act with utter disrespect.

personally I would not be able to put up with the horiific behaviour of those disrespectful tourist for 5

The public should not be allowed near the houses some of them are so ignorant

Some of these tourists...

Gang sign. I despise the throwing of gang sign. It is rude, disrrespectful to a nation that has taken in so many from all over.

Now will someone use some common sense, and stop the bloody tourists. No going near the horses or the guards, everyone stands at a distance behind barriers, no taking photos with the horses, no walking through the grounds. After all this is a military base with soldiers and working military horses. Stop the crazy people. I am so upset after seeing the horses loose and bloodied. I wonder if this is when the hoses made a run for it.

I saw the footage of the two horses galloping down Whitehall. I wanted too cry when I saw the grey covered in blood. Thank goodness both horses were stopped in time.😢

I think the horses are trying to tell us something. They have had enough of being in this circus with the public being allowed to be too close and touching them all the time. Enough is enough!

It was so sad to hear of this horrible accident.

I hope the white horse is ok poor horse ran into a bus hope everyone is ok

After all these rowdy parades being allowed to disconcert the horses it’s time for a rethink where barriers keep people away before we’re picking tourists out of horse’s hoofs .

I sincerely hope the guard and the police horse are all right.🙏

I just hope the guards and horses involved are all ok😢

I hope the injured horse doesn't have to be out done. And the injured people will be ok. So so heartbreaking to see.

Surely this is time to look again at what these horses and troopers are subject too every day....

Five horses bolted today, one Grey was covered in blood after collision with a car or bus four others were found and held by members of the public and one of those was found 5 miles away in East London. A trooper seems to have been badly hurt and some members of the public. Several vehicles were damaged also. This is the worst incident with these horses since the IRA bombing and murder. When fifteen mounted soldiers of the Household Cavalry were in Hyde Park on their way to change the guard near Buckingham Palace when a remote-controlled car bomb was detonated, blasting them with nails and other shrapnel. Four men and seven horses were killed, and many more were injured. Sefton, one of the horses was peppered with shrapnell but managed to gallop back through traffic to Knightsbridge Barracks and his own stall.

I hope that young guard is OK. I noticed he was limping when he walked.

The poor horses are just too stressed, too many people pawing at them.

Really sad what has happened to guard and horseys and public 🙏🙏🙏🙏
