Strength and endurance are the key elements to the Horse Pull competitions. The strongest Maritime horses will exhibit their power and resilience as they pull cement weights of up to 1000 pounds in the classes of Light, Middle, and Heavy. Witness the abilities of these majestic animals and reflect on the days when the family work horses were relied on for their robust strength and muscle-power.

A show steeped in the nobility of the large horse, the Horse Pull features over 20 teams of Clydesdales, Belgians, and Percherons in three weight classes.
