The v show is international in every respect, many competitors coming from all parts of the country, and deals with every known class of horse, from, Shires, Suffolks, and Clydesdales, down to the diminutive Shetland pony, with competitions in jumping for hunters and polo ponies. At this show the King's premiums are awarded to certain stallions. Sir Philip A. Muntz (M.P., Rubgy) is one of the leading spirits and organisers of the show. So far no competition from America have been sent over, and it will be interesting to see the result of the judging of English and American harness and hacks).
