Lorry theft
Staff at The Donkey Sanctuary are “incredibly upset” at the theft of a horsebox used to transport rescued equids. The charity, and police, are appealing for any information that might help recover the distinctive vehicle, which was stolen from Hemel Hempstead in the early hours of Thursday (16 November). A spokesman for the sanctuary said the Peugeot Equi-Trek vehicle, registration YJ17FLG, was parked near Gadebridge Park on Wednesday night.
Judging
In her H&H column this week, Katie Jerram-Hunnable speaks candidly about her early judging experiences and offers some helpful advice to the next generation. “There were strong entry numbers and the horses were amazing to ride, but when it came to judging the conformation phase I was verbally attacked and intimidated by some of the leading names in showing,” Katie says. “I stood by my results and maintained my convictions, though I was close to tears as I left the ring. I nearly thought about resigning, but I had a chat with myself and held my head up high; I wasn’t about to be bullied out of the sport I love so much.”
