Susan Dunne talks to Louise Kaiholm about her decision to return home to Denmark; Bob Elliott reports on a European coaching adventure; British Grooms have advice on making sure you are as fit as your horse; Lester Dagge explores the influence of colour in carriage driving history and tradition. We find out how the Shire horses of Operation Centaur are helping to maintain and conserve ancient woodlands and we meet the Blue Cross charity cobs looking for a forever home.
