STANDING tall and proud, the mag­ nificent shire horse is one of the most beautiful sights in the Countryside. At Clitheroe Country Show, the public will


get the chance to see the horses in all their splendour, when owners from all over the North West parade them in a special shire


horse show. With a trophy for the overall champion and vari­


ous class prizes, competition will be tough and will provide a thrilling spectacle for the public. The organisers regard the equestrian side of the


show as extremely important and with a shire, Shet­ land and heavy horses display,'it makes up an inte­ gral part of the day’s agenda. The competition will be held on the show field,


starting at about 2-30 p.m. Meanwhile, the Sheltand and heavy-horses display starts at about 11 a.m. Stonyhurst farmer Mr John Wilkinson has organ­


ised the shire competition and has an impressive pedigree. Last year he won the shire event and will be using his expert knowledge to judge the entries on Saturday. ' Our picture shows Foxfield Starlite, last year’s champion at the country show.
