In our 40th weekly episode of the first series of The Horse & Hound Podcast, currently supported by NAF, British Olympic event rider Nicola Wilson talks to H&H editor Pippa Roome, where she talks about her 2017 European individual bronze medallist Bulana, among other topics. Moving on to the week’s top news stories, our news editor Eleanor Jones, senior news writer Lucy Elder and news writer Becky Murray join Pippa to discuss Badminton Horse Trials, competition restarting, the equine herpes outbreak in Europe and equine obesity. We also welcome back supergroom to Carl Hester and Charlotte Dujardin, Alan Davies, who discusses the eating habits of his famous charges and how you can tempt your horse to eat up. We hope you will find it useful.
