In this week’s Horse & Hound magazine, on sale Thursday, 30 July, don’t miss the second part of our “Can’t wait for Tokyo” special including a look back at the eventing success of London 2012, plus Tokyo showjumping predictions and more. We talk to amateur show rider Polly Coles in H&H interview and Michael Whitaker reveals his life lessons. In this week’s “Vet clinic” we look at the importance of a pre-purchase examination on a new horse. Plus read our hunting content in which we discover some exotic hunts from around the globe, and don’t miss highlights from competitions across the disciplines. Enjoy our nostalgic long-read feature “Legends of the sport” as we reflect on the “poetry on horseback” jockey John Francome.
