This week’s Horse & Hound magazine, on sale Thursday 8 September, is our 20-page Burghley special report with the brilliant Piggy March and Vanir Kamira celebrated as our cover stars (photo by Peter Nixon), as well as opinion from Nick Burton and Mark Phillips. There are also columns from Anna Ross and showing judge Pam Prickett for the dressage and showing aficionados. Also in this week’s issue, is our preview for the World Eventing Championships, including ones to watch and how to follow the action if you can’t be there in person (don’t worry, we’ll have you covered with all the news, reports and analysis throughout on HorseandHound.co.uk). This week’s interview is with this summer’s Hickstead Derby winner Shane Breen, while for our hunting fans, we look at how Sir Alfred Munnings captured the essence of the chase in his art. This week’s Vet Clinic looks at the veterinary issues typically associated with gaited horses and we have reports from the world of eventing, dressage, showjumping and showing as well.
