Mia Tindall shows her equestrian side as she lends Zara a hand at Blenheim

Mia Tindall she is already a familiar face around the stables as she joined her mum, Zara Tindall, at the Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials.

The young royal wasn't there simply to watch from the sidelines. Mia was spotted getting involved with the family’s equestrian routine, helping to groom Zara’s horse, Classicals Euro Star, as the pair spent time together at the prestigious event.

Mia was carefully brushing Classicals Euro Star from one side to the other while other members of the team tended to the animal's hooves.

The teenager also appeared to be enjoying plenty of mother-daughter time away from the competition, with the pair seen chatting together before sharing a sweet moment as they walked away with their arms around one another.

There was plenty of fun in between the hard work, too. She was later spotted joking around with a family friend, showing that her day at Blenheim was about more than simply helping out in the stable.

Zara has been competing on Classicals Euro Star throughout the weekend, arriving at the event on Thursday in a hurry to make the mandatory veterinary inspection. 

She was pictured sprinting across the grounds in skinny jeans before turning her attention back to preparations for the competition.
