The heavy brigade charged 900 men against 3 000 Russians and the light brigade about 600 men against Russian guns. The first charge broke the Russian cavalry but they were not pursued far. The second failed as a flanking action. guns were briefly driven off but later returned fire as a larger Russian cavalry group engaged the British. Only about ten of the six hundred riders remained mounted at evening parade.
