This week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 1 October features Nicola Wilson and her fan-favourite British team eventer Opposition Buzz. Don’t miss our nostalgic look-back over this stalwart of the sport’s storied career.

In the news pages, we discuss the equine welfare sector at “breaking point”, what Martyn’s Law means for equestrian events and horse shows and more. We take a look at the latest products on the equestrian market, and in the Vet Clinic, we learn about the life of a heavy horse in Victorian Britain.
