This year the “Hereford Spring show” with be run under the banner of the “BDS” and will be called “The BDS Hereford Spring Carriage Show”. It will be held for the second year at the beautiful grounds of Hampton Court, Leominster. The Hereford & District Driving Group members, friends and family will be helping run the show yet again.
The first class starts at 9.30am with 11 classes in total with our main judge being John Marson. The schedule will be similar to last years and will include classes for Juniors, Veterans, Pleasure/Exercise and Private carriages, singles, pairs and multiples, Ride & Drive. At lunchtime we are holding a Concours class which should be quite a spectacle hosting a wide variety of carriage entries, this will hopefully be judged by a local business person. We have been asked to put on again qualifiers for the Osborne and Victoria Food championships which are held at the end of the season.
There will be trade stands and photographer present and refreshments for the viewing public. The HDDG members tent will supply refreshments to club members, sponsors and the Judge & Stewards.
