West Worcestershire MP Harriett Baldwin was given a VIP backstage tour of the Kings Troop as part of the Royal Three Counties Show festivities.
Harriett was given a tour of the troop's temporary base and met with the people carrying out the displays at the popular county show.
The Kings Troop carries out major Royal events such as the Trooping of the Colour and the guns on display at the show were used only a couple of weeks ago to mark the Queen's 90th birthday.
The Royal Troop brought more than 60 horses to Worcestershire and carried out displays of their skills for the show's 100,000 visitors.
Harriett said: "In the month that we have celebrated the Queen's 90th birthday, it's was great to be given a behind-the-scenes tour to see how the troop prepares for its work.
"Everything from a mobile farriers to an armoury travelled from their London base to the Malvern Hills and it is testament to their professionalism that the troop is able to put on such an extensive show for visitors.
"I hope that the thousands of people who travelled from all over the country to visit Malvern this weekend had an enjoyable time and will re-visit Malvern very soon.
