As a team of three riders enters a ring full of cattle, judges call out a number that corresponds to a label on three of the 30 animals. The team then tries to pull the correct cows from the herd. The riders work together cut the right cows from the herd, steer them down the arena and put them in the pen as quickly as they can. The team with the best time wins.

Today's theme is 4-H Day. Motor Booty Affair will perform at 7:30 p.m.

The fair continues through Monday at the Windsor Fairgrounds, on Route 32 between Routes 105 and 17 in Windsor.
