I don't quite get yours.
I think you have just had the connection between racehorses and women's suffrage normalised through familiarity. The king of GB is a figurehead of power, constitutionally speaking he would have no say regarding voting rights for anyone. He doesn't even vote in elections.
Listen to/read what the protestors say. Art, like our planet, is beautiful, precious, and valuable. Our planet is not protected by a sheet of glass, there are no security guards to protect it from vandals. How you feel about a work of art being damaged or threatened is one trillionth of how you should feel about people destroying your ecosystem.
It's a lot less tenuous than chaining oneself to a fence or throwing oneself in the path of a rich man's racehorse in order to secure votes for women.

Fair enough - this is more explanation than I'm getting from the media
What the protestors are actually saying hasn't been especially prominent in the coverage.
