Getting busy for the Summer issue!

A range of great articles are flowing in to the Heavy Horse World office for the Summer issue, which we are now busy preparing after the very wet winter! Congratulations to all the winners at the National Shire Horse Show which took place on an extremely challenging weekend weather-wise – especially the National Stallion Champion and King George V Cup winner, William Bedford’s Landcliffe Charlie; Female Champion, Martin Fountain’s Woodhouse Calendar Girl, and Gelding Champion, Robinsons Brewery’s Acle Thomas. The Clydesdale National Stallion results were topped by Cawdor Cup winner, Charlotte Young’s Doura Magic Touch, and the female champion Ian & Linzi Kennedy’s Hillhouse Zara. Meanwhile have a happy Easter, and keep those subscription renewals coming in, in preparation for the next edition which comes out at the very end of May!
