Two military horses seriously injured after running loose through London on Wednesday have undergone operations, the Army has said. It comes after defence minister James Cartlidge said the animals were in a “serious condition” on Thursday morning. Four of the animals who broke loose have now been named: Vida, Trojan, Quaker and Tennyson. Vida was the grey horse seen in videos and images from Wednesday covered in blood galloping through central London, alongside black horse Quaker. In a statement on X, formerly Twitter, the Army said one of those operated on had been taken to an equine hospital. A group of seven horses and six soldiers from the Household Cavalry were on an extended exercise in Belgravia on Wednesday when they were spooked by builders moving rubble. Four service personnel were thrown from their horses and five of the animals got loose, smashing into vehicles and causing a number of injuries. JJ Anisiobi discusses the story with horse behaviourist and trainer Trudi Dempsey.
