The 11th Annual Atlantic Canada Arabian Horse Show
June 9, 2008
Sussex, NB --- Under the watchful eye of Judge Lewis McKim from Richmond, BC, competitors showed their horses in hand and under saddle. As usual, one of the highlights was the Liberty class staged on Saturday night. In this event, the horses are turned loose in the arena, individually, and encouraged to 'strut their stuff', demonstrating the grace and agility that are the hallmarks of the breed.
On June 14th and 15th the attention turns to the elegant Morgan Horses. They'll be shown in-hand, under saddle and in driven competition throughout the two days of the show sponsored by the New Brunswick Morgan Horse Association.
On June 21st and 22nd, the Quarter Horses take over with youth and adult divisions and both English and Western riding. Competitors come from the three Maritime Provinces, Quebec and the New England states for this event hosted by the Maritime Quarter Horse Association.
