What’s in this week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 2 July


  • Don’t miss this week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 2 July, in which we put Tom McEwen’s five-star fan favourite United 36 in the spotlight. Plus, we take you behind the scenes of that extraordinary moment when showjumper Jack Whitaker met Becky Moody’s grand prix dressage star Jagerbomb – find out what happened when Jack had a sit on the FEI Dressage World Cup champion. In the news pages, we bring you the latest on the fight to keep horses safe from dog attacks, the pros and cons of the under-16 social media ban and much more. We hear from Anna Ross and Carmen Edwards on hot topics in dressage and showjumping. In this week’s Vet Clinic, we explore the issues polo ponies are most susceptible to. Our interviewee this week is five-star US event rider Cosby Green, who is based with Tim and Jonelle Price. Plus, take a look at some gorgeous barn conversions in the property pages. For hunting fans, we turn back the clock to 1997 and remember marching for hunting, and this week’s foal file is Sadie Smith’s Swanmore Dantina. As ever, enjoy in-depth reports from the latest fixtures, including Bolesworth, the Hickstead Derby Meeting, the Scottish Dressage Championships and much, much more. There are many other articles for equestrians to enjoy – see a more detailed breakdown below.
