This is how I see things. Perfectly gentle well behaved horses come to the Horseguards and within days of being exposed to people’s behavior start nipping, pushing people, and kicking off. My conclusions, it’s the humans’ fault and it’s known as abuse and bullying. They can call it anything they want, but when you watch these people crowd in on all sides so that the animal is trapped and multiple hands are grabbing at it. What do you call it?

This is a perfect description of the situation! The only thing I'd like to add is that I don't understand all the people who become 'gravely offended' at any suggestion that the horses are being mistreated. The truth of the matter is that the tourists are treating the horses terribly and it's being allowed. It doesn't matter how well taken care of the horses are, since they're allowed to be subjected to 'this' at the same time. It's a subject that gets commenters really riled up and I'm sorry about that, but the facts are the facts. Forgot to mention that the constant head bobbing by some of the horses can be a symptom of anxiety and aggravation.

Where as in the regular guards Blues & Royals etc. the female guards have a voice, a very loud voice. However if you are on Ormonde he has great crowd control.

Horses are quite use to crowds of people, They go through training to cope with all sorts of crowds, bangs flags etc and most things thst can annoy them. They do get spooked by unusual things that could be quite unexpected..even an empty plastic bag flying about, or high winds suddenly blow. Any thing a bit different. But they cope with it. They are only on duty FOR DONE HOUR PER DAY, 2 or 3 times a week for one week, then a military regiment change over. They are cared for far far better than a lap dog, have a good life.
