In this week’s edition of Horse & Hound, in shops from Thursday 28 May, we explore the incredible feats in the world of showjumping and gain insights into the sport’s near-impossible results. In the news pages, we cover post-pregnancy riding as it re-enters the spotlight following Ros Canter’s Mars Badminton victory, how inheritance tax affects the equestrian community and more. We also hear from Rosie Williams and Nigel Hollings on hot topics in eventing and showing. In this week’s Vet Clinic, we expand on the news of rising equine influenza cases with information on how to minimise the risks. Belgian eventer Karin Donckers is our H&H interviewee this week, we put a Hickstead Derby winner in the spotlight and this week’s foal file is champion hack Boston Black Tie. For sports fans, enjoy reports from the latest fixtures, including eventing, dressage, showing, showjumping and point-to-point. There are many other articles for equestrians to enjoy – see a more detailed breakdown below.
