The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
Show jumping made a return to the programme at this year’s annual Long Sutton Horse and Pony Show.
There were four rings and 37 classes at this year’s event as well as a family dog show, including a dog agility ring, rally and scurry.
Ring Four was dedicated to have-a-go jumping with a mixture of show jumps and working hunter fences.
There was also a variety of trades and refreshment stands.
The show has been running for more than 50 years and once attracted famous names in the horse world.
Nowadays it is a one-day show aimed at giving a day of events for every horse and owner regardless of age or experience.
The show is supported by sponsors, which enables profits to be given to local charities and good causes.
