Finals from the Hella “Fun with foals"

Selection of foals coming from Rangárþing and Mýdal took place in the Rangá arena at Hella last Saturday. A total of 24 foals were registered in two different categories, that is three top foals each from a group of mares and horses. This took place following a total of four shows which had taken palce in this area. A number of  beautiful and promising foals were presented and the spectators had great fun watching the future breeding stock from the south part of Iceland. The judges were well known riders from the world of horse breeding, they were Bjarni Þorkelsson in Þóroddsstaðir, Sigbjörn Björnsson in Lundir II and Þormar Andrésson in Strandarhjáleiga. These partners gave points for different aspects of conformation and qualities and eventually chose five foals for finals in each group. At last the foals were presented in one group and lined up in seats after this comparison.

Prizes at the show were hearty, access to stallions for glamorous horses for all the winners, trophies for all those who were rewarded and also trophies for the winners. We want to thank the suppliers of these rewards for their support.
