Queens 40,000 GBP gift horse
The Queen is to be
given a rare 40,000 GBP Lipizzaner horse when she visits Slovenia later
this month.
The white stallion will
come from the same stud farm that breeds the horses for the exclusive
Spanish Riding School in Vienna, say local media.
Tour
organisers have also planned a tour of the farm in Lipica, once part of
the old Austro-Hungarian empire, during the two day visit.
The horse-mad Queen is understood to be delighted at the gift.

The
Queen and Prince Philip will also be taken on a walk through the High
