There was a civilian on horseback, but he's now been modified out, and a soldier on horseback. The soldier is Royal Artillery.

A pity we can't make out the shoulder titles which would have told us what branch he was.  The way he has doctored his cap brim to look "alli" would suggest Royal Horse Artillery.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
