2020 Grandview Draft Horse Invitational - 60th Birthday Celebration

Celebrating my 60th birthday with friends attending the Draft Horse Invitational. I took so many pictures its crazy.....LOL, I totally enjoyed touring through the horse barns and watching them preparing the draft horses for the big show. 
Trying to explain the atmosphere that you will find within the show ring of an elite all-breed draft horse hitch show is hard to put into words, but here it goes…

Just imagine the possibility of 168 one-ton horses in a ring at the same time, along with 21 world-class hitch wagons, being maneuvered by some of the best drivers in the industry! You can imagine the organized chaos that gets executed perfectly, a marvelous undertaking to see. The pure power and excitement of this equine venture are one of the most crowd-pleasing horse events on the planet. There will be up to 32 of these one-ton draft horses working together at a full trot within the show ring altogether. Did we mention that the whole competition is done to handpicked music for each class.
