Hobby horse enthusiasts from all over Finland gathered in Vantaa on Saturday for annual championships.
This year’s main event took place in a packed sports hall, attracting an estimated 1,000 spectators. Some 200 participants competed with their hobby horses in several sub-categories.
The riders – almost all girls aged mostly between 10-18 – competed in sports that simulate traditional equestrian events like dressage and show jumping.
