The Royal - Day 6 - Features for Kids & International Equestrian Competitions

Here's what you need to know today from the 97th Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, on now until Sunday, November 10

Good morning!

Here's your daily dose of, "wait a second, a little girl leading a massive horse? Why are they doing that, I have so many questions!" Thankfully, we're here to answer those questions and provide you with the best media ops and interviews straight from The Royal.

As a reminder, if you need a dose of cute for a broadcast segment? We've got b-roll of Lil' Ben the Mini Horse meeting adoring fans, kids feeding goats at the Petting Farm and a selection of other great scenes from yesterday at the Fair - click here to download video clips of Lil' Ben.

Give us a call at 647-865-2552 or stop by the Media Salon (Salon 101 in the south west corner of the Enercare Centre) if you'd like to arrange curated experiences for media features. We'd love to help you get the most of The Royal and highlight something truly unique!

For full details on events and activities at The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, see here.

1. International Horse Show Competitions Begin Today!

High stakes at the Horse Show as international riders and horses make their way to The Royal to compete. A win at The Royal is one of the highest honours a rider can attain in Canada, and you can bet the world is watching.

2. Inside the Ring of Excellence! - Educational exhibits for kids!

Today, the Ring of Excellence (which normally shows beef and dairy cattle) will be converted to a learning area for children (and city-dwelling parents ) to experience life on the farm and what it takes to raise the one of the best animals in the country.

Expect reactions like this:

3. SUPERDOGS.

The SuperDogs are happening daily and it is the most ridiculous display of canine intelligence we've ever witnessed. Thankfully we've befriended a SuperDogs trainer and can now offer one-on-one interviews with a dog. Let's build a barky, slobber-filled segment together.

Lil' Ben, The Royal Ambassador / Mini Horse

We have too many fantastic photo or segment opps at The Royal, especially with Lil' Ben the tiny yet feisty horse.

Again, if you'd like to arrange interviews or require media passes, you can pop by the Media Salon in the south-west corner of the Enercare Centre (Salon 101) and we'd be happy to help!

See you at The Fair!
