Horse & Hound has launched Badminton Horse Trials A Celebration — a glossy, thick, commemorative special that features the highlights and history of the world’s most famous horse trials.

Badminton Horse Trials A Celebration focuses on the history, heroes and horses, including such loved stars as William Fox-Pitt, Sir Mark Todd, Lucinda Fredericks, Mary King, Pippa Funnell and many more. The stunning publication brings together a number of special reports on the event between 1949 and 2015.

Horse & Hound’s Content Director Sarah Jenkins says: “Badminton Horse Trials is among the greatest equestrian events in the world, and as such Horse & Hound has been committed to covering the iconic event for much of our magazine’s history. It is fascinating to see how the event has changed during that time, and a treat to see those images from the archives celebrating the successes of our equine heroes over the ages.”

Badminton Horse Trials A Celebration is on sale in WH Smith (both travel and high street) and a range of other independents for just £9.99 or on Amazon. A must have for any eventing enthusiast and equestrians alike.
