On 16 March 1972, ITN caught up with Princess Anne, Princess Royal, who was training hard with her horse Doublet for the Badminton Horse Trials in April. In the long run, the Princess Royal was preparing for the Munich Olympics in the summer. Anne had already won gold in the 1971 European eventing championships, and was therefore a serious equestrian Olympic medal contender. The Princess Royal's trainer, Alison Oliver, had no doubts about her strength and ability to compete in Germany. All for the better, as Anne was well known to have a “dislike of not winning”.
Unfortunately, the 1972 Badminton horse trials and the Munich Olympics three-day event were both won not by Anne but by Captain Mark Phillips. After meeting in Munich and discovering a shared passion for riding, Princess Anne and Captain Phillips were married in November 1973.

Go Anne, Princess Royal what an incredible and STRONG woman she is - a woman of depth and complexity...

I don't believe I have actually seen her ride before. Beautiful rider and horse.

Wow! I trained with Alison Oliver and frequently hacked out Princess Anne’s horses. Columbus was a powerful boy! Was shocked to see myself in this video (girl with the pigtails) riding Collingwood in the background. Collingwood was I believe a half brother to Columbus. Memories! And, Doublet was the best…a great horse.

So this is where Zara got her riding skills and love from!

Zara’s dad, Mark Philips was an Olympic Medalist too. So Zara inherited this talent from both parents.

She is a well accomplished rider..

Columbus was quite young there. He went over to Mark Phillips in the end. Poor Doublet had to be put down; seeing him always makes me sad; she must’ve been heartbroken.

Yes. Columbus had just recently come in for training. He arrived as a biter, though mostly gave that up with more handling. He was a very powerful and big horse. I remember hacking him out one day and dropping my stick. Getting back on him was quite interesting! (Had to drop the left stirrup leather many holes and jam his head into the hedgerow to quickly leap back into saddle!).
