The Chronicle of the Horse is an American weekly equestrian magazine.[1][2][3][4][5] It covers dressage, hunters and jumpers, eventing, foxhunting and steeplechase racing.[1][2]

It was started in 1937 by Stacy Barcroft Lloyd Jr and Gerald Webb.[1][2] It is headquartered in Middleburg, Virginia, in a building adjacent to the National Sporting Library.[1][2][3][4] In 1953, it changed from tabloid to magazine size.[3] Its website was created in 1998 and forums in 1999.[3] In 2013, the Ohrstrom family sold the Chronicle to Mark Bellissimo, owner of the Winter Equestrian Festival.[6][7]
