Horse + Pony, the monthly magazine for young equestrians, is delighted to reveal its exciting new look. The November issue, on sale from October 6, sees the debut of the title as a compact publication – smaller, handier and edgier, yet still providing its usual excellent value for money with an increased pagination.

Research has shown that smaller format magazines appeal hugely to the young reader, with many youth and teenage titles already readily available in compact/travel size. But Horse + Pony, never a brand to stand still, is the first equine news stand title to embrace this format – reinforcing its position as the most exciting and innovative magazine in the equestrian sector.

Sarah Whittington, Horse + Pony’s Editor, said: “The new compact magazine – dubbed tack box size especially for our young equestrian enthusiasts – includes all our regular readers’ favourite content, with some exciting extras, packaged in a fresh format.”

The November issue boasts plenty of fresh content, with new sections and features complimenting material which proves so popular with the Horse + Pony readers. Ever topical, there is a practical guide to Mucking Out – including tips on how to combat typical problems and advice from leading riders – an interview with Amy Weaver, the UK’s youngest female racehorse trainer, real life stories, posters, competitions and, of course, all the latest from H+P’s very own Tippy!

The November edition of the magazine is on sale from October 6, priced at £2.40
