Menorca is preparing to hold once more the annual "Fira des Cavall
de Raça Menorquina", that will take place in the old barracks of
Es Mercadal, on May 4 and 5, organised by the Associació de Criadors
i Propietaris de Cavalls de Raça Menorquina, sponsored by the Es
Mercadal Town Council, the Balearic Government and "la Caixa".
This is the 6th Fair and will include, amongst other activities, the
"XII Concurs Morfològic de Cavall de Raça Menorquina" and
an extensive exhibition of products and activities relating to the horse
world. But the moments most looked forward to are, without doubt,
the horse show that will take place as usual on Saturday night, as from
9 p.m. and the prize giving ceremony that will be held on Sunday 5 at noon
followed by the closing show.
Full information and photographs about Menorcan horses can be found
on the web
Club Escola Menorquina,
in Ferreries, that offers horse shows on Wednesdays and Sundays at 8.30
p.m. You can also find in Ferreries
Son
Martorellet, that organises horse exhibitions on Tuesdays and Thursdays
at the same time.
