Foal Belgians or Brabanders

 
 
 
Foal competition of foals of Belgian draft horses, known as "Belgians" or "Brabanders". These foals,  born in 2010, are participants in a competition and are judged on looks, posture, walking and running gaits. They will receive an individual ranking.  At the end of the day, also the parents show themselves of in a parade to prove good lineage.

    Shalom Anni. I have driven a team of golden Belgians (in USA) but I've never seen a young one. The foal is so cute! Thanks for showing this.
    Wait, but where is the tail?
