That horse is not as big as many Shires - or the rider is a giant.
Shires - Ridden by knights of old.
Pulled many a cart full of ale to the inn.
Some day when I can scrape some cash together I am going to own a team of Shires.
Great for pulling dead moose out of the bush for this hunter.
And they are a good ride as well. Not many cows will pull a Shire off it's feet.

My hubby rides a Percheron / Paint cross about 16.1 h and must go 1500+, can drag anything you can dally to and pack anything you're man enough to throw on him! He loves him - that draft disposition you just can't beat it - he'll go anywhere you point him, and has surprising stamina for such a big guy. I'll have to show this to him so he doesnt' feel like such and "odd man out"! Get you two together and you could joust!
