Ms Phillips successfully put High Kingdom through his paces today as they completed the cross-country equestrian event in under nine minutes, despite the cheers from the crowd being so loud that they drowned out the timer on her watch. The Duchess of Cornwall, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (Wills and Kate), Prince Harry, Princess Eugenie, and Princess Beatrice were all in the crowd to cheer on Zara Phillips, who is also a granddaughter of the Queen (and daughter of Princess Anne).
