SECTION ONE CLYDESDALE HORSES Sponsored by W Douglas & Sons, Saucher, Kinrossie Judging at 9:30am by Mr P Tennant Snr, Forth
The Kirriemuir District Agricultural Association is affiliated to the Clydesdale Horse Society. A Shield (which will be supplied and engraved by The Clydesdale Horse Society) will be awarded to the best yearling or two year old colt or filly, registered or eligible for registration with the Society, not having won a Shield before in its lifetime. A Rosette is also awarded. The exhibitor must be a current member of the Clydesdale Horse Society. In a lifetime each animal may only win one shield and so the judge must choose the best eligible animal from non-shield winners.
