It is the only horse with a rider, representing King George III, who regularly visited Weymouth, and made it 'the first resort', riding on his horse. There is a legend that King George was offended that the figure was riding out of Weymouth, a sign that he was not welcome, and never returned, but he was not well at this time and later may just have not been up to making the journey again.
