The 2024 season is well under way, and it’s shaping up to be a pretty exciting one. May sees the 75th anniversary of Badminton, and thanks to it being an Olympic year, we can look forward to a stellar start list as riders hope to catch selectors’ eyes. In this issue, we learn more about the event’s humble beginnings and why it’s so special.
While the fields are still recovering from the wettest February in 190 years, it’s been the perfect weather for testing lightweight coats (every cloud and all that). Testing kit is something we take really seriously at Horse&Rider – for example, did you know items go on a long test – usually three months, but often a lot more – to ensure they’re durable and will perform well for you? See what we thought and who came out on top. And if you’re feeling inspired to update your or your horse’s wardrobe, then don’t miss the amazing Hy Equestrian catalogue, free with this issue!
All this and so much more in the April issue of Horse&Rider – on sale now!
