Caden Barrera: “Shire X Haflinger X QH!”
We all love a “horse of a different color”, especially a horse that makes our eventing dreams come true! We’re kicking off an updated Horse of a Different Color series by featuring different breeds and crosses who have found success in eventing and we’re starting off with the almighty draft cross.
We recently sent out a call for your draft-cross photos and you delivered. Check out the reader submitted photo gallery below.
