Pony Magazine  |  PONY Magazine – Spring 2026
We’ve been dreaming of the beach. Have you ever been on a beach ride? Perhaps it’s one of your 2026 horsey goals, or maybe you already know just how epic it is. There is honestly nothing like riding along the sand with your fave pony, splashing in the surf and then listening to their hoofbeats as you gallop along with the salty air blowing in your face. This is the perfect time for it, too – spring is coming, the days are longer, but the coast is still quiet. So – if you need any of Team PONY, you’ll know where to find us!
Now, we might be a little bit bias but how gorgeous does Polly the PONY mag pony look on the cover?! She is such a superstar and we’ve had so many amazing adventures with her already, and in this issue you can join us while we go hacking together! From getting ready to enjoying the epic views and picking up the pace on the sandy bridleways, we had sooo much fun!
Have a go at our fab exercises, too! We’ve got a cool in-hand polework idea, a grid that’ll get your pony thinking quickly on their feet and advice for riding without stirrups – it might not be the most comfy style of riding, but it’s sure to boost your skills so give it a go in your next schooling session!
Plus, make light work of your stable chores with our tips so you can spend more time in the saddle and learn all about laminitis to help keep your pony happy and healthy all year round. Plus get to know Harlow’s newest member of the fam, the handsome Hugo, and discover our fave horsey book series for every age and reading level – after all, it is the National Year of Reading so why not see how many you can tick off the list in 2026?
The Spring issue of PONY is on sale now and comes with a super-cute pony pen!
