THE ROYAL COUNTY OF BERKSHIRE SHOW NEWS

THE first performance of the weekend from the Devils Horsemen went down a storm with the crowds at the Royal County of Berkshire Show today (Saturday).
Europe's number one stunt and trick riding team produced an amazing spectacle to warm up the crowds this afternoon, with many onlookers gasping in amazement at the level of danger associated with the stunts.
Bernadette Johnson, of Newbury, said the Devils Horsemen were one of the main reasons for visiting the show this year, describing their performance as "absolutely fantastic."
The Devils Horsemen, who were led by top horsemaster and stunt coordinator Gerard Naprous, will perform three more times this weekend, including tonight at 4.50pm and tomorrow at 11.50am and 2.20pm.
Meanwhile, the Band of the Brigade of Gurkhas also performed a crowd-pleasing musical display in the main arena prior to the Devils Horsemen performance.
The band, formed in November 1859 as part of an Indian Army Gurkha Regiment called The Sirmoor Rifle Regiment, performed a range of songs at a fast pace in the first of their three performances over the weekend.
