New Delhi, April 1
The 18th Delhi Horse Show, which began on March 24 is the only show in the country which is conducted under floodlights. The Delhi Horse Show, one of

India’s premier equestrian events, continues until Sunday, April 4, and has adopted this strategy to beat the heat and give a new dimension to the sports.

The competition promises to be tough and challenging because both riders and the horses are unused to participating under bright artificial lights.

The Delhi Horse Show, organised by the Army Polo and Riding Club, is
being held at the Army Equestrian Centre, Delhi Cantonment.

The Delhi Horse Show, now in its 18th year, draws competitors from across the country in four categories: Senior, Junior, Sub Junior and Children and will be putting on show some of the best talent in show jumping and other events. More than 500 competitors, including civilian riders as well as teams and participants from the services, the police, the paramilitary forces, colleges and schools have arrived in Delhi to take part.

Today’s competition started with Children Jumping Normal Group -II (children below 10 years age) and Master Sushant Singh won the gold medal. Master Anantya Sahney astride Knight Warrior won the silver medal and Master Karan Kareer astride Red Rum won the bronze medal.
