This week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 14 August, we celebrate the Princess Royal as she approaches her 75th birthday. The H&H interview is with Alec Lochore, who discusses Scone Palace and the 2028 Olympics. The 10-minute box features Paralympic medallist Mari Durward-Akhurst, while in the Vet Clinic we shine a light on he code that helps prevent positive dope tests. This week’s exclusive columns are from Carl Hester and Chris Smith for dressage and showjumping fans. We also bring readers additional eventing, dressage, showjumping and showing reports from around the UK, plus reports from the Junior and children-on-horses European Championships and a report from the Riding Club national horse trials championships. In the hunting pages, we bring you all you need to know from the 2025 Blaston Hound Show and more. There are also other plentiful articles for equestrian fans to enjoy – see a more detailed breakdown below.
