2008 Winner

Congratulations to Steve Green who won the 2008 Hurst Horse Show Photo Competition. There were a number of superb entries, which made the judging very close, but it was agreed that this fabulous picture of the falcon and children did an excellent job of giving an impression of the Show.

Terrier Races

One of the highlights of the Show is the Terrier Race which takes place each day after the horse events have finished, normally at around 4.30pm.

To enter your dog please register at the secretaries' tent (situated between to two horse event arenas) on the day. Please register in good time and definitely before 4pm. The entry fee is £1.50p.

All dogs are welcomed to join the event, not just terriers. Depending on the number of entrants there will be a series of heats and finals, possibly separated into terrier and non-terrier classes, with a Grand Final.

The terrier race is sponsored by Oscars Pet Foods.

Programme Competition

Each year the children of St Nicholas CE Primary School are invited to design the cover illustration for the Horse Show programme.
