A horse with a mane good enough to make pop stars jealous has been spotted in Mongolia, forcing some to make a comparison to singer Ellie Goulding.

Just like the Burn singer, this horse has a long, luscious blonde mane, and could be seen swishing it as it ran across the fields in eastern Mongolia's Kehntii province.

The horse was snapped by Batzaya Choijiljav, 40, from Mongolia and it soon earned the nickname 'Ellie Gelding'.

Same hairdresser? Both Ellie Gelding the horse and Ellie Goulding the pop star has some enviable tresses

The horse's flowing locks help keep him warm in the freezing Mongolian climate, which can reach minus 40 degrees.

The starstruck photographer stumbled across Ellie Gelding in eastern Mongolia's Kehntii province during the Winter Horse Festival.

Batzaya said: 'The horses are hardy and adapted to living out in the cold temperatures - they are able to forage for food in any condition.

'Mongolian horses are small but stocky and strong, and great for endurance riding.'
