Red Hill Show

· CLYDESDALE & HEAVY HARNESS FEATURE SHOW
· MINIATURE HORSE SHOW
· PONY CLUB RING
· FUN RING
SATURDAY 27th MARCH, 2010
RED HILL SHOWGROUNDS - Melway 190 J4
Gates Open at 7.30am (no earlier)
Come to the Red Hill Show and meet Diva!
Although Diva is only four years old, she is 1.75m (5ft 10 in) high from the ground to her shoulders and she weighs about 816k (1,800lbs). In spite of her impressive size, Diva has a gentle nature and loves making new friends. You may have already seen a photograph of her in the Herald Sun newspaper in an advertisement for the 2009 Royal Melbourne Show. She is well named because she loves posing for the camera.
Her real name is Valmont Moonrise Eclipse and she comes from a very well known family of champion Clydesdale horses. Actually her father is a bit of a playboy, but when his offspring are as beautiful as Diva, who can blame the ladies for seeking out his company.
Diva lives at Rye on the Mornington Peninsula; her reddish-brown and white colouring is known as blue-roan; she has beautiful white hairy legs and amazingly she has one big brown and one big blue eye.
Over recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in Clydesdale horses in Australia. The use of Clydesdales in brewery teams has greatly increased the public profile of the breed and this has meant a renewed interest at local shows. Clydesdales will be a feature of the 82nd Red Hill Show and you have a date to meet Diva and lots of her equally large and gorgeous friends at Red Hill on
Saturday, March 27th 2010.
There will also be a special display of antique harness and a beautifully re-conditioned carriage.
