Jennifer Anstey is the CEO of Horse Media Group, Canada’s premier equine marketing outlet. 


HMG owns Canada’s top equine media brands: HorseSport.com, Horse-Canada.com, CanadianThoroughbred.com and publishes the Canadian Horse Annual and Canadian Thoroughbred Sire Book.

As the company’s CEO for the last 15 years, Jennifer has extensive experience in all aspects of the horse industry with a keen understanding of the commercial, sport, and recreational aspects. Her communications and equestrian expertise have helped grow the business into a multi-faceted media outlet that reaches well over two million people annually. 


With her love of equestrian sport and travelling, Jennifer has reported on major international events including the Olympics, World Equestrian Games, Pan American Games, and World Cup Finals. This involvement led her to be voted onto the board of the International Alliance of Equestrian Journalists where she was re-elected three times. After terming out, Jennifer continues to manage the business affairs for the IAEJ which is dedicated to addressing media related issues and acts as a liason between the world’s equestrian press and the International Equestrian Federation and other equestrian organizations.

Jennifer is a passionate horse-lover who grew up immersed in Ontario’s equestrian community. She hunted with the Toronto and North York Hunt from a young age and competed for many years on Ontario’s hunter/jumper ‘A’ circuit. She currently rides “Spencer”, a 12 year-old Thoroughbred she enjoys riding at home and competing in the jumper ring.
