Mini horses invade the 4-H rings on Saturday as the pint-sized breeds compete in one of the Fair’s most popular livestock events.

MINI PULLING CART 16

The young handlers prompt their charges through a series of jumps or hitch them to small buggies for a ride around the corral. Ribbons will be awarded in several categories.

 

The little horses are adorable and great fun. There are often petting opportunities and the stars are naturally photogenic, so be sure to bring your camera. LEAPING MINI 16

 

The 4-H rings are at the western end of the grounds, past the midway rides and the cow birthing center. Events begin at 8 a.m. Saturday.
