January issue of Your Horse on sale now.

Don’t miss it!

The clocks have changed, the weather’s wet and cold – it’s official, winter has arrived. It’s not all doom and gloom though, we have plenty of riding advice in this issue to keep you inspired over the colder months. There’s also a 40 page guide on feeding your horse over winter, so you can keep your equine friend in tip top condition, happy and healthy. The festive season is also on the horizon, so we’ve pulled together a Christmas gift guide so you’ll have no problem coming up with gift ideas for your horsey buddies (and fill up your own list for Santa). One lucky reader will also win the lot!
