In this week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 16 October, we delve into all the action from the Horse of the Year show, which includes a history-making supreme champion and one team’s 100th centreline. In the news pages, we delve into the research that puts the value of the equestrian industry at £1.2bn, and the human error that led to the wrong horse being crowned champion at HOYS. Also in this week’s issue, we meet British para dressage rider and double European bronze medallist Jemima Green. In the Vet Clinic, we look at how you can actively prepare for emergencies. This week’s exclusive columns are from H&H’s Pippa Roome and Nigel Hollings for eventing and showing fans. We also bring readers additional eventing and dressage reports from Osberton and Wellington. For hunting enthusiasts, Andrew Sallis writes about the beauty of a well-educated hunter who’s done plenty of “homework”. Don’t miss our in-depth feature on how the menopause and perimenopause can affect riders at all levels, plus many other articles for equestrian fans to enjoy – see a more detailed breakdown below.
