All Equine: Ontario’s premier equine show is coming to the Western Fair District Agriplex here.
From March 14 through 16, horse enthusiasts, casual riders, trainers, competitors and more will enjoy three-days of clinics, seminars, shows, competitions and shopping, inside the expansive, three-venue, 160,000-square-foot agriplex.
The second edition of All Equine brings many exciting new additions including Eastern Canada’s first ever trainer’s challenge. Three of Canada’s top trainers will compete for the inaugural title by preparing an un-tamed, un-trained horse to be safe and responsive to a rider.
The event also features an internationally-sanctioned Extreme Cowboy Race. A celebration of horsemanship and competitive speed, Extreme Cowboy Racing is considered the fastest growing equine sport in North America.
A fashion show, featuring the latest in equestrian and western fashions, will be presented on the All Equine catwalk during the event.
All Equine officials are also excited to announce the return of:
– Doug Mills, of Kamloops, BC, a three-time Trainers of the North Challenge champion;
– a Working Cow Horse Clinic; and
– Russ Krachun “Kozak” Horsemanship.
There will also be chiropractic clinics, equine massage clinics, farrier and hoof health clinics, and clinics on nutrition and supplements, saddle fitting, farm safety, stabling, equipment and fencing, and more.
New to the show for 2014 are the Silver Stars Precision Riding Club, a “not-for-profit” group of talented and dedicated young riding students with exceptional riding skills.
The Silver Stars are a group of horses with riders, aged 11 to 22, wearing colorful costumes performing choreographed maneuvers to recognizable music.
