No horse expert but I think the horse on the left of the screen has the most seniority. Just watch how he moves...just another tow for him. Dad told me of different times he pulled vehicles out of the ditch with a team..often where a machine wouldn't. The story I remember best was of a thrahing machine that dropped a rear wheel into a ditch as it came around a corner.
