Don’t miss it!
Despite these challenging times, the Your Horse team has put together a bumper issue for you — a whole 164 pages of it! If you’re not riding there’s a great lungeing workout from dressage rider and trainer Sarah Ridd. Follow her advice to check that your horse is getting all the benefits lungeing can bring to his training.
If you’re looking for a little bit of inspiration then our interview with young showjumper Joe Stockdale is a must. He talks openly about his late dad, Tim, his hopes for the future and how he and the rest of his yard are coping during coronavirus.
Another thought-provoking feature is the second part of our Fit Not Fat series. This time we explore obesity and the serious health implications it can have, highlighting the importance of us all keeping a watchful eye on our horse’s waistlines while their workload has lessened.
We understand with the current lockdown in place it may be more difficult to get hold of Your Horse magazine, that’s why every issue of Your Horse is available to buy online, either as a single issue or subscription, to get delivered to your door. We’re also still available on digital platforms.
