Real horse power!
So what is a horse pull?
Heavy Percheron, Belgian, Clydesdale and Shire horses especially bred for the task are hitched to a heavily weighted “stone boat” and trained to drag it as far as they can.
The team that drags the “boat” the furthest wins. Sounds simple eh? Not quite . . .
Thanks to all our fans and competitors who made the Draft Horse Pull a real drag!
See you next year!
