Jimena's first Doma Vaquera competition is scheduled for Sunday

Doma Vaquera is loosely translated as Spanish Dressage, we're told. However, the word vaquera is related to vaca, or cow, so we must assume that the kind of thing they do is linked in some manner to the way a horse is trained to deal with cattle. This is just a supposition and we would really appreciate it if someone who knows, can tell us how it differs from Dressage as we know it from the Olympics, say (we're not talking about standards here, just how it works). In any case, this year's May Fair in Jimena, features a Doma Vaquera competition, which is new. This is scheduled for Sunday at 1pm at the fairgrounds. But there's a lot more, which you can see on the full programme (presently under construction by TranslationHELP).
