In this week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 5 March, enjoy our breeding special pages, in which we celebrate the hugely successful stallion Diarado and go in-depth on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). We also bring you our Cheltenham Festival preview – not one to be missed by racing fans. Among the news pages, we find out how equine sleep enhances learning ability and take stock of the mixed reaction to the 2026 HOYS judging format. We also bring you the best of the latest launches on the equestrian products market. In the Vet Clinic, we learn all about travel sickness, from its symptoms to how to treat it, and how to manage the risk. This week, our opinion column comes from Pippa Roome for eventing fans, our interview is with endurance champion Emma Martin and we find out about stunt-performing show rider Hannah Miller-Burton. In our hunting pages, enjoy our report of the Costwold Scurry, plus Alastair Jackson continues his series on great foxhunters he knew personally with Dermot Kelly. For sports fans, enjoy our reports on the latest dressage, showjumping, showing, racing and point-to-point action.
