Kentucky State Fair Announces Judges For 2015 World's Championship Horse Show
Tuesday, February 3, 2015


The judges for the Kentucky State Fair World’s Championship Horse Show have been selected. They are: Michael Craghead, Euchee Matthews, Josh Greer, Nancy Troutman, and Jay Wood. They will be judging all divisions.

The Kentucky State Fair Board has added Saturday, August 22, 2015 to the World’s Championship Horse Show.  The schedule will be held over eight days rather than seven, making the day sessions shorter and with no day session on Thursday. 

The first Saturday night will consist of the Kentucky County Fair classes, the Kentucky Rider class, and the ASR Futurity of Kentucky for Weanling and Yearlings. The Sweepstakes will still be held Sunday night. Due to the fair being a week later this year it is planned to have the Junior Exhibitor qualifying classes held Sunday afternoon and night, as well as Monday morning, in order to accommodate those who may have a conflict with school.  The Junior Exhibitor championship classes will still be held Friday morning, Friday night, and Saturday morning.
