The Big Ex Announces Maritime Horse Pull

This year's edition of the South Shore Exhibition will feature a large pool of East Coast talent. Event organizers have announced the LaHave River Credit Union - Maritime Horse Pull will replace the recently cancelled International Horse Pull. The international event was cut by the Cumberland, Maine Fair earlier this spring due to a lack of funding. Teams representing Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and PEI will take part in the horse pull which will be held on the same day and time slot as previous years. The Maritime Horse Pull will consist of the top eight teams emerging from the qualifying pull. The purse has been set at $4,400. The Big Ex will be held July 23rd to 28th in Bridgewater.
