This week’s Horse & Hound magazine, on sale Thursday 13 January, contains our mental health focus, which includes a guide on how to cope when things turn sour on social media, the challenges of being a professional rider and more. This week’s exclusive H&H interview is with Felix Francis, the son of equestrian novellist, Dick, and we find out how to master canter pirouettes, while in Vet Clinic we take a look at how can you tell if your horse is a happy athlete. Our Nobby, the 14.3hh unlikely star who won Badminton and Olympic team gold features in our popular Legends of the Sport series. In addition, we bring you action from the world of showjumping, dressage, racing and point-to-pointing, plus there’s a range of hunting features to enjoy.
