The Queen: A Passion For Horses (2013x117)

Air date: May 27, 2013

Her Majesty was given a pony for her fourth birthday and today, aged 87, still rides; and she’s also one of the country’s leading breeders. With her team, who speak here about their work, she’s bred the winners of more than 1,600 races. This film follows a spring season, from the birth of foals (which she names herself) at Sandringham to race day at Newbury.
