A horse known as a “gentle giant” is to take part in the funeral procession of the Queen. Apollo the Drum Horse will be ridden by Lance Corporal Chris Diggle from the Band of the Household Cavalry.The nine-year-old horse stands at over 17 hands (1.73 metres) tall and weighs in at nearly 800 kilograms. He is described as a “big friendly giant” who “loves attention”.
Lance Corporal Diggle will ride Apollo with reins attached to his feet as his hands will be holding solid silver drums in just one of the details so important to get right today. The Lance Corporal said: “He’s a big lad, gentle giant that he is, but he does have his quirks – he can be naughty like most horses but he is lovely on the whole.” He added: "He is really gentle, he is the most placid horse and that’s why he is on today because he is so well behaved. Apollo and I will be just in front of the gun carriage and we will be just behind the first division Blues and Royals.
We follow the Blues and Royals making sure the pace is steady for the carriage.” “We won’t be beating the drum today, the sombre occasion … will mean no music for us. We will have the drums and will go out with absolutely everything, but no playing today. “The reins are attached through my stirrups which I have my legs in and because I usually have sticks in my hand (to beat the drum).
I have to control the horse with my legs and steer it that way.” Drum Horses of the Household Cavalry carry the rank of major and as such are senior to all other animals of rank in the army. Apollo joined the Queen's Household Cavalry in 2020. He is being paraded two years after he enlisted – usually it takes three years for horses to train for this role.

As the Queen’s coffin made its way to Westminster Hall from Buckingham Palace with the Royal Family in tow, many noticed that Prince Harry and Prince Andrew failed to salute during the late monarch's coffin procession.

In addition to this, Prince Andrew was stripped of his military titles last year but retained his rank as a Vice Admira.
