HORSE events in Caithness will be taken to a whole new level tomorrow when the county is set to host its first ever stunt show.

Riders of the Storm are set to dazzle the crowds when they display their gymnastic abilities on galloping horses at Dale Farm, Halkirk.

The show has been organised by six enterprising equine studies students from North Highland College who are organising the event as part of their studies.

They came up with the idea as an HND charity event to raise money for good causes and at the same time showcase North Highland College UHI’s new Dale Farm campus, which opened last year.

Pitlochry-based Riders of the Storm will perform two shows which will include skills such as hanging off the saddle while running at full speed as well as forming a human pyramid on running horses and jousting bouts to coincide with the event’s medieval theme.

They will be performing at Dale Farm

on Saturday, March 2 with tickets on sale at the gate at Dale Farm.
