AFTER the huge success of last year’s RDS Public Judging Competition, synonymous with all the fun and colour of Dublin Horse Show, the ‘paperless’ competition will once again be digital.

If you can pit your wits against the expert judges, you could be in with a chance to win a fabulous daily prize of €1,000.

As part of the Show moving to a more sustainable platform, the Public Judging Competition can all be done with the click of a button. The competition is a great way for spectators to get involved in the Show.

It is open to everyone and offers visitors an opportunity to demonstrate their equine knowledge. If you have an eye for good conformation and movement, or think you have what it takes to pick out a winner, then this is the competition for you!

The competition will run over two or three classes on each day of the five-day Show, which takes place from Wednesday, August 9th to Sunday, August 13th. And you can decide where your expertise best lie, whether that is with Riding Horses, Hunters, Connemara Ponies, Young Horses, Cobs, Mares and Foals, Stallions or even in the Racehorse to Riding Horse class.

To enter, visit //dublinhorseshow.com/publicjudging, or simply scan the QR code which will be displayed around the Showgrounds.

If your selection matches that of the judges you will be entered into a daily draw for the €1,000 prize.
