Draft Breeds
Draft horses are usually shown in a square stance, though sometimes slightly parked out. Mane and tail styles vary, but most are shown with the tail tied up into a short knot that is no longer than the length of the dock. Manes on most working breeds are braided up short, usually with ornamental ribbon or yarn added. Mature horses are shown in a bridle, young horses in a leather stable halter.
