Horsemanship Badge

[bchapman42]

I have recently acquired my great grandfather's WW1 medals and badges. I am trying to identify the attached badge. I have two badges dated 1913 and 1914. They are metal thread on red cloth. Two crossed whips with two King's crowns. They are similar to other horsemanship badges that I have seen on the web but I cannot find ones with two crowns. He was in the C.E.F Artillery.

Thanks

Hi. In your image it is difficult to see the badge details. Could you post a better one?
The badge appears to be a "prize" badge. This is a badge given for winning a competition in skill at arms or trades. The spur / whip with a crown was the patch for skills as drivers of horse transport. (As opposed to Driver's internal combustion.)
With the bullion wire construction and years embroidered on the patches, the badges appear to be prize badges for the best driver in his unit in those respective years.

Thanks. Great image. As per my earlier post, the patch is a "prize" patch for skill at arms.
