27. I rewartched the show yesterday

in HD on a big screen TV instead of on my computer. The first charging group is Stannis' men - where Tyrion goes "Oh fuck me"

However, as he is passing out, he sees the horses charging and that is Tywin, Loras, etc on horse. I'm pretty sure he doesn't realize who they are, though. But, you can clearly see the antlered helm the guy on the white horse is wearing - if you know what to look for. Since they were mounted and took Stannis' forces from behind and by surprise, they routed them pretty easily. Unless prepared, men on foot rarely can stand up to charging knights on horses.
