PREGNANT Zara Phillips has quit competitive riding.
The Queen's granddaughter, married to Gloucester Rugby star Mike Tindall, is expecting their first child in the new year.
A spokesman for Princess Anne's daughter, who took part in a cross country event in Sussex on Sunday, said: "The fact is that all of Zara's horses have now qualified for the events she wishes to enter them for next year.
"She has done so well already this season, she does not actually need to compete any more. Given that she is pregnant, she has decided to cancel the rest of her entries for the year.
"If there is no reason for her to ride, then she won't."
