Much of the Royal Family is gathered in Balmoral for their summer break
Lady Louise Windsor demonstrated her advanced carriage driving abilities at the British Carriage Driving National Championships in Essex on Friday.
The 21-year-old, ahead of returning to her final year at St Andrews, competed at the Ashfields Carriage and Polo Club near Great Dunmow, participating in the sport’s highest competitive tier.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh’s daughter displayed remarkable concentration whilst guiding her brown horse and four-wheeled carriage through the course.
The accomplished royal driver appeared confident throughout the competition, occasionally breaking into smiles between moments of intense focus.

Lady Louise attended without her parents, who are currently at Balmoral with other royals before resuming official engagements.
The 21-year-old has embraced the equestrian pursuit that her grandfather, Prince Philip, championed for decades.
Philip introduced carriage driving to Sandringham in 1982, transforming it into one of his most cherished pastimes at the royal estate.
