Horse & Hound; 3 April 2025


  • In this week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 3 April, don’t miss an exclusive interview with Jeremy Scott, trainer of Champion Hurdler Golden Ace, plus find out more about top dressage stallion Dante Weltino, who is the sire of Jagerbomb. We also pay a visit to Brendon Stud and, in anticipation of this week’s Grand National, be sure to check out our full form guide for the big race. This week’s Vet Clinic looks into the pros and cons of using grazing muzzles to help control horses’ weight. In our hunting pages, we join Charles Frampton’s final day as master and huntsman of the Heythrop, and find out about how this year’s Harborough Ride unfolded. We also bring readers eventing, showjumping, dressage, showing, racing and point-to-point reports from around the UK, among our plentiful articles for equestrian fans to enjoy.
