testing, directly employing a vet to complete the procedure. The tests will be taken at random
from the horses forward on the day of the show and the shows at which testing will occur will also

The MANIFOLD VALLEY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
The Society was formed to foster competition and fellowship within the rural
community of the parishes bounding the course of the River Manifold.
Generally, entrants at the Show are limited to those who reside, own or rent property
in these parishes. There are exceptions to this rule for the Heavy Horse section, the
Rare Breeds, a number of the Cattle and Craft Classes and for all of the Pet Classes
and Driving section.
It is hoped that this policy will encourage local youngsters and new entrants to the
showing world.
Membership of the Society has many advantages, including free admission to the
Show for you and your family, the use of the Members Marquee and it’s bar. There is
also the benefit of reduced Entry fees.
More information about membership and an application form can be found on the
inside back cover.
