About Us

Published weekly from its offices in Middleburg, Virginia since 1937, The Chronicle of the Horse is the nation's leading source of news and results for the entire sport horse industry.

National and international, the magazine covers hunter/jumper horse shows, dressage shows, eventing, foxhunting, steeplechasing, driving, and endurance competitions, primarily.

Written for the active competitor, each weekly issue is a concise, but thorough update on everything you need to know to make your competitive involvement more successful.

 

Each year, the magazine covers over 300 competitions with in-depth interviews and photography from on location.  Far more than who won or lost, the reporting endeavors to provide readers with inside information that explains how and why the winners were successful.  Readers learn where the horse came from, its pedigree, how the trainer fixed a problem, the rider's strategy, and anything else that contributed to the winning effort.  More than 2,500 editorial photographs each year round out the reports so that readers see the winning style up close.

Following the editorial coverage of the featured competition, readers are provided results of more than 1,300 other competitions, coast-to-coast and internationally. If you placed 1st through 3rd at any of those competitions, your name is published in the magazine.

In addition, readers find profiles of leading riders and horses, thought-provoking opinion articles, a monthly calendar of upcoming events, late-breaking news and short news items of general interest to all.

Once a month, a special issue spotlights a particular discipline or international level competition. Those issues provide profiles, features, statistical reviews, handicapping, rosters of helpful names and addresses, or any other information germane to the topic. 

Whether a special issue, or a regular weekly issue, The Chronicle of the Horse is filled with names, dates, and interesting information that connects competitive riders to their world and everyone in it.  Time-tested and trusted by leading horsemen for generations, the magazine has proudly earned the title of official publication for numerous sport horse organizations, including:
