I came across the following website: nordjyske.dk/artikel/10/5/6/3426069/4/l%E6s%20artikelThe main shield is definitely the quartered coat of arms of HE Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg, as they match with what she bore as Princess. Presumably, the white dragon supporter and the white feather and blue gentian crests are hers as well. But are the inescutcheon at the centre, other supporter and the red horse crest then those of her husband, Martin Jørgensen? If so, why are his arms in pretence when HE The Countess is of higher rank?

Yes, apparently they are the Countess' arms - see skeel.info/getperson.php?personID=I2292&tree=ks The website does not explain them, however.

Many thanks, Observer. Having a look into it, there is a Frederiksborg horse. So I presume the shield with the red horse is actually a reference to Frederiksborg itself and not to The Countess' husband.
Thank you for clearing that up.
