Is there opportunities for experienced cavalry officers to train/back horses for service?

Working with the younger and fresher horses to train them for ceremonial duties

    Hi
    Thanks for your message.
    The horses are generally trained by the more experienced soldiers of the regiment. You can not join as an instructor/trainer. You would have to join like any trooper, complete basic training and then undertake riding school with the regiment. Every mounted soldier completes this, whether experienced or not.
    Hope this helps.
