A main arena dedicated to horses is all part of the fun at the Hatfield House Country Show in August.  

Equines on show will range from huge Shire Horses to miniature Shetlands, with demos from the British Heavy Horse Driving Trials Club, the East Hertfordshire Branch of the Pony Club, polo ponies and mini Shetlands.

The Pony Club will be returning for its fourth year to join a musical ride in the theme of the American Wild West.
Visitors will be able to meet the owners, riders and their horses, with exhibitions and demos taking place over all three days of the show.

Also watch out for BBC TV’s Matt Baker, who will be giving a helping hand and chatting to visitors.

The show runs at Hatfield House in Hertfordshire from August 20-22. For more information visit www.hatfield-house.co.uk or call 01707 287010.
