The UK 2024 National Shire Horse Show will take place on 8th, 9th and 10th March at Staffordshire County Showground. I only live one hour away from this venue, and will be going.

Amazing manoeuvrability and nimbleness of those black shires! Thank you for this video.

Absolutely spectacular! To stand beside one of those giants, let alone to drive and guide them is phenomenal. That last parking was spectacular....most people can't even park a car that well. Thanks so much for another great event and for taking us along. It's always so nice to sit back and enjoy God's beautiful creatures showing what they're made of. 🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎

Draft Horse Expo in Nevada City, CA, is also a large show held in September. It has a lot of entertainment and events.

I was so excited to see a notification that you were posting another video. I used to work for Young Living. My daughter has worked for Young Living for 11 years. The farm in Mona is just one of the awesome things about living in Utah. The lavender fields are so beautiful when they are in bloom. This looks like such a cool event. I'm sorry I missed it.

I helped start the SUNY MORRISVILLE College team of Belgians back in 1984 as a student there - there is so much that goes into it - love the Draft breeds

Goodness! Thank you for sharing and taking us along. Watching this demonstrating the teamwork of these horse's, do many together, makes one realize the TREMENDOUS amount of time and training that would go into this past or present. Great respect for this! And you got to meet and spend very quality time with a legend and one of your heroes. I am sure he was very pleased with all the wonderful things you and Apollo have done together. I am going to watch the complete 3 segments of this. Being a person who loves and appreciate s history, the jousting will be quite fastinating. Thank you Santiago.👏

Love the elegance and pride those horse exude. Wow. One question: what is the history of why their tails are tied up like they are when being shown? How long are their tails when they are just being horses? The reason I ask is my 30-year old pure bred Arabian had a long flowing tail when I inherited him 4 years ago but he needed a companion in his 3 acre pasture. Not thinking thoroughly through this situation, I got him a goat as a buddy. They are a perfect “herd” now, but the goat ate his tail all the way to the tail bone. I used to tease Remme that he was my Hackney horse pulling a carriage in Central Park. But when I learned about draft horses and their unique showing regalia, subscribing to your channel, I now can call him a my Shire-boy/Arab. Thanks for the excellent videos that explain the horsemanship and everything about how you work with them - as opposed to stupid horse videos/shorts where all I see is the narrator’s face and nothing about the horses.

'Working horses with Jim' is a youtube vlog you may enjoy? I've loved the smell of horses all my life and enjoy anything with a horse evolved. The only thing I don't like with draft hitches is tail docking. I enjoy your vlog.
