This week’s Horse & Hound, on sale from 13 July, includes a look back with David Simpson on how he won the recent Hickstead Derby and we put the spotlight on Tom Jackson’s 2022 Burghley runner-up Capels Hollow Drift. We also take a trip down memory lane to when Nijinsky, David Broome and Prince Philip all hit the headlines in the summer of 1970. Plus read about legend of the sport, See You Then; the hurdle runner who beat Desert Orchid. In this week’s Vet Clinic pages, we take a closer look at equine thermoregulation, including how it works and what you need to know. We have exclusive columns from Andrew Nicholson and Julie Templeton, for eventing and showing aficionados, while this week’s reports pages cover eventing, dressage, showjumping and showing from across the UK and abroad for sport fans to enjoy. Plus, for hunting fans, we showcase hunting’s youth and why young handler classes are thriving, plus there’s a comment from Matt Ramsden.
