What’s in this week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 13 August
This week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 13 August, features our FEI World Championships form guide. It’s the essential companion to Aachen 2026, with detailed dives into all the starters in eventing and much more.
In the news pages, we explore the latest laminitis research, the progress made – and work to do – on obesity in showing, and more. We also round up the best joint supplements on the market and explore horse lorry design.
The spotlight is firmly on fly bites and sores in the Vet Clinic, and our interviewee this week is Jessica Mendoza. Hear from Pammy Hutton and Graham Fletcher and for their takes on hot topics in dressage and showjumping, and for hunting fans, we report from the West of England Hound Show.
As ever, enjoy in-depth reports from the latest fixtures, including LGCT London, Equifest, Bishop Burton and much, much more. There are many other articles for equestrians to enjoy inside – see a more detailed breakdown below.
