Zara Tindall is set to appear in her own ITV documentary which will explore her shared passion with her grandmother Queen Elizabeth II.
Zara Tindall has opened up on her “hopes and dreams” during a rare TV interview. King Charles’ niece is set to appear in a new documentary on ITV giving insight into the final day of Cheltenham Festival.
ITV’s Champions: Full Gallop shows Zara, 43, discussing one of the UK’s most anticipated horse racing-based events.
The Royal Family member, married to former rugby star Mike Tindall, noted that the Cheltenham Festival, held every March, is filled with “hope and dreams to grab” for equestrians.
In a clip from the ITV documentary, Zara tells the interviewer: “There’s a lot of hopes. There’s a lot of dreams people want to grab. Everyone wants to have a win at Cheltenham, and Gold Cup is obviously the biggest.”
She added: “I think it’s worse watching than riding, 100 per cent because you’ve got no control over it, and you sit back and let them get on with it.”
Zara’s love and ambition in horse racing was passed down through the family. The former world eventing champion boasts a successful career in the field and was the first member of the Royal Family to win an Olympic medal as part of Team GB in 2012.
The equestrian regularly attends equestrian events around the world, both when competing and spectating.
Her riding career includes a gold medal at the European Eventing Championships in 2005 and a silver at the World Equestrian Games in 2006.
Zara has also previously been crowned BBC Sports Personality of the Year and has been nicknamed the Royal Olympian.
The soon-to-be ITV star isn’t the only successful horse rider in her family. A love and passion for horses runs deep in the royal family, with the late Queen Elizabeth and Princess Anne learning how to ride from an early age.
Champions: Full Gallop is described as horse racing’s answer to Drive to Survive, revealing a behind the scenes glimpse of the popular sport.
