CLYDESDALE HORSES CLYDESDALE HORSES
On Friday 16th to Sunday 18th March 2007, the
Clydesdale Horse Society members from around the
country have the pleasure of attending Horse of
the Year Show. On Friday and Saturday, we can
be found at a trade tent where you can get a ride
either on the wagon or sledge pulled by a team
of beautiful Clydesdale horses. Traditionally
the Clydesdales have
been used as work horses for ploughing the fields,
hay making, heavy haulage and transport. Today
while still performing many of these tasks for
many of our members they have also become a horse
of pleasure. On Sunday in the working horse competition
you can see them performing in a range of events
including sledge classes, wagon classes, log skidding
and
even a ridden Clydesdale class. We are a friendly
bunch of people who enjoy the gentle nature, strength
and beauty of the Clydesdale horse and wish to
share this with other equine enthusiasts.
