Born in 2016, she was named by a then-four-year-old Estevan, Sask. boy who submitted it to the RCMP’s annual Name-the-Foal contest./Noble stands 16.
The Queen, meanwhile, has reciprocated, presenting the RCMP with two horses, one of them the offspring of Elizabeth . She also gifted the RCMP a hand-carved wooden hobby horse, in honour of Burmese. The Queen enjoyed a laugh when she saw then-RCMP commissioner Bob Paulson riding a hobbyhorse she gave him. Burmese — the live one, not the wooden version — was the Queen’s favourite. She rode her at the Trooping the Colour ceremony for 18 consecutive years, from 1969 to ’86. When Burmese retired, so, too, did the Queen — after a fashion — thereafter switching to a carriage for the annual event.
