I found this information on: London Drum City Guide The event starts at 10.28 AM, when the replacement guards start riding towards Horse Guards from Hyde Park Barracks. If you've got plenty of energy (and you will need a lot to keep up with the horses!) then you can watch them pass under Wellington Arch and ride all the way down Constitution Hill, passing the palace at around 10:45 AM.
