Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: On Show at Windsor. DESCRIPTION: A big attraction at the Royal Windsor Horse Show was the musical ride by the Household Cavalry. Another entertaining idea is to take a glance behind the scenes, it’s very important to be spick and span, before facing the judges. A mount’s got to look smart, too! There are pony tails to be combed, and pony tails to be plaited. Then, they’re all set, these very young competitors. SHOTLIST: Key scene. GV Household Cavalry’s musical ride. MCU same. GV same.
