Equine charity says Vida has recovered ‘physically and emotionally’ while under their care in the countryside

A white military horse that galloped through central London drenched in blood after bolting with other horses from routine exercises has returned home after more than six months of recovery, a charity said.

Vida was one of five horses that bolted near Buckingham Palace on 24 April after becoming spooked by noise from a nearby construction site and ran for several miles through the city during morning rush hour. Three of four soldiers thrown from their steeds were taken to hospital.
