Madonna has turned her hand to horse riding.

The queen of pop reportedly booked an hour-long riding lesson at the Stag Lodge Stables in Richmond Park, South West London.

A source told The Mirror: "Madonna didn't want to be recognised at all, so she booked the place out. She was adamant and insisted that she have the arena to herself."

Madonna also hired the horses and equipment for three days so she could practice in the grounds of her £9m Wiltshire mansion.

The source added: "She really seems keen on riding now."
