The Abu Dhabi Police Cavalry team won both the individual and team competitions at the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

The equestrian event is held annually in Home Park, the private grounds of Windsor Castle.

Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, recognised Abu Dhabi's achievements.

This year, the Royal Windsor Horse Show saw participation from 29 international police teams.

The event, which ran for five days in May, is not just a competition but also a social gathering that garners attention from the British royal family and celebrities.

Originating in 1927 as a modest local show, it has evolved into a staple of the international horse show calendar, attracting competitors and spectators from around the globe.

The show offers a diverse range of events, including show jumping, dressage, carriage driving and endurance riding.
