King Charles’ niece, Zara Tindall, who is currently in Australia to attend the annual Magic Millions Carnival, received high praise for a major achievement in her career.
Zara is not only a champion rider like her mother Princess Anne, she is also a patron of Magic Millions Racing Women. While she may not be a working royal, she has supported a few causes alongside the royals, especially when it came to horse-related charities.
On Sunday, the 44-year-old marked a “special moment” at the arena in Gold Coast, Queensland, as she showed off her impressive jumping skills.
“Olympic rider Zara Tindall MBE took to the ring as show rider in the Magic Millions Queensland Off-The-Track Cup Final riding the beautiful grey, Rescoria – (Testa Rossa (AUS, 1996) x Big Brown (USA, 2004)) bred by none other than our very own Gerry Harvey!” The organization states this in a statement.
“We are so excited to see another wonderful example of a Thoroughbred thriving in a new career beyond racing. Congratulations Zara, an excellent ride and a fitting celebration of the talent, adaptability and future of these exceptional horses.”
Earlier, Zara and Princess Anne attended an annual event for charity World Horse Welfare in November 2025, where Zara spoke about post-Brexit challenges for horse welfare and travel. Princess Anne is president of the charity and Zara Tindall serves as patron.
