Some of you eagle eyed historians may have noticed the Scott's Grey's inthe picture above.

We were just excited to release these and couldn'twait for the studio to paint them!
During the Hundred Days campaign of 1815, it was the 2nd British heavycavalry brigade – made up of three elite heavy dragoon regiments – thatsmashed the enormous attack columns of d’Erlon’s corps in the opening movesat Waterloo, putting to flight, capturing or killing thousands of Frenchinfantry. Not content with such a feat they continued on to harry the French gunline before becoming blown, over-extended and driven back with staggeringcasualties by vengeful French horse.
The Union Brigade was named thus as it was made up of three units: 1st RoyalRegiment of Dragoons (English), 2nd Regiment of Dragoons (Royal Scots Greys),and the 6th Dragoons (the Inniskillens from Ireland). All clad in red, they rodeparticularly large and aggressive horses – Britain had the pick of the besthorseflesh in this period.
