There is money in Drafts if you know your business. Good horses selling from$7-8000 up to $30 - 40,000 each. Just like everything else though, it all in the genes.
Percherons at the moment are the hot horse for the show folks. They have Arabian in them from hundreds of years ago and have a little more step as a rule than the Belgians. Clydes and Shires just don't have the action that the show horse world wants at the present. I love the Clydes and Shires, but it takes a lot of work to keep them looking good and their "feathers" on their legs looking good. Also, a Percheron or Belgian will mature and be able to be in the show ring at 3 years old usually, where a Clyde and Shire are usually 5 - 6 years old before they have the mass.
All depends on what you like. They are all great breeds. Bob

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
