As a horse owner I regularly buy this magazine especially in the winter when jump racing is at its peak in the season. As little girl I dreamed I would have a picture of me and pony in here and still wish that now! Horse and Hound magazine is a bible for the equestrian enthusiast as it contains reports and news of all aspects of riding. The articles are usually quite general and apply to most horse lovers. They are often on new topics or those in the media which makes the weekly magazine justiable. The reports are good but if you are a racing enthusiast then often the racing post offers better reports. However the coverage of point to point is excellent and there are usually photos from all meetings and detailed reports. I especially like the the titbits from the sidelines as these are often very funny. The letters page is often a talking point and good letters are always printed. The short letters are often good and capture a viewpoint in afew lines. News is presented in a clear layout and includes many fun articles as well. I like the strange photos and the birthdays as it is fun to guess how old people are! The horse and hound is probably most famous for is extensive classified section. The horses for sale section is massive and is divided up by height and price so it is easy to search from a horse you could buy, The range of other classified adverts are good and there should be something for everyone. My personal favourite part of the magazine is the photo on the last page. It is often of somehting unusual and contains a few paragraphs about where the photo came from and its history. Many interesting quiz questions have come from this page! This is a must have for all horse lovers and is equally interesting to people who have a passing view on the horse world.
