Power Couple - Tyler Hodgman and Cienna Knowles
Cienna hung up her long boots from the show ring and moved to Tyler's side of the cutting horse world, and together, the young couple are making their mark within the industry. Horse Deals spoke to the duo to learn more about how they quickly came together despite originally coming from very different equestrian backgrounds.
Laminitis Feature
Laminitis is the word most horse owners know and dread with a passion. In this issue, we asked two qualified veterinarians to talk about this often career-ending disease; Dr Tania Sundra explains how to prevent laminitis and PPID, what to look for, treatment and management, while Dr Luke Wells-Smith describes a laminitic case study on a five-year-old Warmblood—a must-read for any horse owner.
Niki Rose - The Woman Behind the Man
From an eventing background herself to marrying Olympic Eventer Shane Rose, Niki understands and helps plan and execute Shane's drive to excel in the sport. This year proves she is a solid part of the success and recovery that saw Shane compete at the Paris Olympics just four months after his horrific injury. Could Shane have done it without her? Probably not. Horse Deals spoke to Niki and found out how she contributed to and supported Shane's recovery goal to make it to the Games.

Horse's Tale - Checkamour D
Horse Deals spoke to Mattea Davidson about her mare Checkamour D, who recently won her first World Cup. For many showjumpers, this in itself is a dream, but for Mattea and her husband Shane, this is extra special as Cindy (as she is known in the stable) is a homebred, trained and produced mare, who they have had the privilege of working with from conception right through to competition.
Tribute to a Showing Star LA Chicago
First of the Warmblood show horses, Spencer, as he was known at home, took the show ring by storm under the guidance of super showman Paul Austin and later young rider Tess Hughes. Amassing Royal and National success across the country, LA Chicago led the way for Warmbloods in the show ring.
