What is a Draft Horse?

Draft Horses are the largest of the horse breeds.  They are also referred to as a draught horse or a heavy horse.  Draft Horses are large; they can weigh 1,600 pounds or more and stand at least 16 hands high from the ground to its withers (one hand equals 4 inches).  They are known for their quiet and calm temperament and their sweet personalities.  They have a muscular build and have been bred for tasks such as haulage, forestry and agricultural work. For pleasure they are used for driving, trail riding, parades and showing.  They are often called Gentle Giants and are considered the "Muscle-Men of the Horse World."
