Zara Tindall shows off her style chops by donning a houndstooth coat as she heads out to the Cheltenham Showcase with friends

Zara Tindall was photographed today during day 2 of the Cheltenham Showcase event.

The two-day showcase, which started yesterday, is described by organizers as an opportunity for racegoers to have the chance to ‘learn more about different racehorse ownership experiences’.

In addition to racing, there will be special question and answer sessions with people from the racing world and a signing session with Nicky Henderson.

Avid horse lover Zara, who has competed in equestrian events at Olympic level, was photographed watching the action alongside former jockey and racing journalist Alice Fox-Pitt (née Plunkett).

Zara, the niece of King Charles and daughter of Princess Anne, was sensibly dressed for the bracing October weather.

The 42-year-old bundled up against the cold in a houndstooth coat, which she paired with a trilby.

Underneath she wore a black sweater with a high neck. Slung over her arm was a classic black handbag with chain detailing in the shoulder strap.

In her typical style, Zara opted for a classic and natural makeup look, with a fresh complexion with a natural lip and dark eyeliner.

Despite the apparently gray weather, she seemed happy to be at the event and was photographed smiling as she walked around the grounds.

Zara’s appearance today follows a recent trip to Paris with her husband Mike Tindall to watch the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

Once again the royal family looked stylish as they watched the horse racing at Longchamp Racecourse.

For that performance, she donned a green ensemble topped with a coordinating fascinator from Juliette Millinery.

The royal has been making quite a fashion splash lately, showing off her style skills in a modeling campaign for her latest fashion collaboration.

Zara's stylish appearance today (pictured) followed the royal family's recent modeling collaboration with outdoor brand Musto, where she looked equally stylish and showed off her favorite pieces from the Autumn/Winter 2023 campaign.

Zara teamed up with outdoor retailer Musto to collaborate on its Autumn/Winter 2023 campaign.

And she looked cozy as she posed up a storm in her favorite picks from Musto’s lifestyle collection.

Princess Anne’s daughter looked stylish in the Marina Long Quilted Jacket in Windsor Wine, which retails for £250.

Elsewhere, she wore the Marina Primaloft rain jacket in black, which retails for £220.

Zara looked like a pro modeling the casual wear and adding another string to her bow.

The mother-of-three, who has been a Musto ambassador for 16 years, told Hello: ‘It’s definitely starting to feel autumnal and these jackets are the perfect choice to stay warm and dry as the colder, wetter weather starts to arrive. .

‘I’ve been wearing Musto for years and it’s the perfect gear for riding, walking the dogs and being outdoors, all of which I love.’

Without royal titles, the Queen’s granddaughter and her husband, who live on Princess Anne’s estate in Gatcombe, are free to pursue commercial ventures and have become masters at making lucrative deals.

Zara’s previous collaborations with Musto are said to have raised around £500,000.

She also has deals with other luxury brands, including Rolex and Land Rover.
