A Shetland pony who was a personal favourite of the Queen has been given a top honour in recognition of his long career "brightening the lives of so many people". Cruachan III is a former mascot of the Royal Regiment of Scotland who retired in 2012, aged 23, after nearly two decades of military service. For almost 17 years, he took part in numerous military parades and Highland games, and became a much-loved addition to the cast of the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The pony was awarded the British Horse Society's Tarragon Trophy - their "equine personality of the year" gong.
