In this week’s Horse & Hound, in shops from 2 May, enjoy our full Badminton Horse Trials preview, which includes a close look at this year’s cross-country course with former top event rider Nicola Wilson. Plus, as the event celebrates its 75th anniversary, we take a trip down memory lane and a look at Badminton’s history and so much more. The H&H interview is with Aidan Coleman this week – he talks about his forced retirement from race-riding. This week’s Vet Clinic focusses on the health risks to look out for when dealing with carriage-driving horses. We have exclusive columns from Pippa Roome, H&H’s eventing editor, and Katie Jerram-Hunnable for showing fans, as well as dressage, eventing, showjumping, showing, point-to-point and racing reports, while hunting fans can read a report from the Silver Spur.
