Zara has horses in mind for Olympics

Zara Phillips has earmarked "two or three horses" to try to help her get to the London 2012 Olympics, the junior Royal revealed as she launched a new range of equestrian clothing.

Phillips, 29, said it would be "amazing" to make her Olympic debut on home soil having had to withdraw from the GB eventing line-up for the 2008 Olympics after her horse Toytown became injured.

"It is about two or three horses," she said. "There have been a lot of people (possible Olympic medallists) who have been in the running and had to pull out because of having a horse injured and hopefully I will get there."

The daughter of the Princess Royal unveiled her equestrian range in London. The collection, bearing her initials and the number stating the fact that she is the 176th person to represent Britain in eventing in the logo ZP 176, is produced by Musto and prices range from 35 to 200.

Phillips was involved from design, right through to development two years ago, and the testing of the products.
