Equestrian events will return to a Sunday program again this year.
While Clydesdales, light and heavy harness classes will be a feature of the show day program on Saturday, the majority of equestrian classes will be held during a separate program on Sunday.
On Sunday, horses will dominate the main arena with an eight ring program.
The Sunday program enables the full focus of the show to be on horse events in the main arena without the noise and distraction of the carnival and other show activities.
Warragul Show has a long reputation of being a leading and top quality show and the horse program at Warragul has always been well supported by high standard entries.
Judges are always full of praise for exhibits and competitors in classes across the board.
Whether a competitor or a horse lover, the main arena will be the place to be for hour after hour as judges cast their eye over a quality display of horse and rider combinations on Sunday from 9am.
The popularity of classes for miniature horses in recent years will see these classes return to this year's program.
Hacks, Galloways and Ponies will compete in a number of ridden and led classes as well as champion and reserve champion classes on Sunday.
There will be classes for Buckskins, Palomino and Pinto entries to be judged in their separate breed classes, one after another.
Other horse breeds on show will be Arabian ponies, Australian miniature ponies, Brumbies, Buckskins, Welsh Mountain, Welsh, Mountain or Moorland ponies, Pintos, Palominos, Shetland, Riding ponies and Australian stock horse.
Racing Victoria's Off the Track classes will include ridden open and ridden show Hunter as well as led open and led show Hunter. The classes are open to retired, registered thoroughbreds.
A highlight of the day's judging will be the grand supreme led exhibit, supreme champion rider, supreme champion open exhibit and supreme champion Hunter exhibit.
