In this week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 21 May, we bring you our report of the action from the Royal Windsor Horse Show, including amateur rider Laura Nicholson’s epic win in the hack championship. In the news pages, we cover the new pathway that could combat five-star entry decline, the change to the young horse World Championships, the future of dressage and more. We also hear from Pammy Hutton and Adrian Whiteway on hot topics in dressage and showjumping. This week is a property focus, and we bring you a selection of homes under £1m and take you through all you need to consider with an equestrian property renovation. Showjumper Sandy McLean is our H&H interviewee this week and Ros Canter’s three-time Badminton champion Lordships Graffalo kicks off our new Foal Files series – Tessa Waugh’s ‘Goodnight’ will return in the autumn. For sports fans, enjoy reports from the latest fixtures, including eventing, dressage, and point-to-point. There are many other articles for equestrians to enjoy – see a more detailed breakdown below.
