The Clydesdale is a breed of draft horse named for and derived from the farm horses of Clydesdale, a county in Scotland. Although originally one of the smaller breeds of draught horses, it is now a tall breed. Often bay in color, they show significant white markings due to the presence of sabino genetics. The breed was originally used for agriculture and haulage, and is still used for draught purposes today. The Budweiser Clydesdales are some of the most famous Clydesdales, and other members of the breed are used as drum horses by the British Household Cavalry. They have also been used to create and improve other breeds. The Royal Highland Show is Scotland's annual farming and countryside showcase. The show is organised by the Royal Highland and Agricultural Society of Scotland. Held annually at the Royal Highland Centre in Ingliston, over the second-last weekend in June (Thursday - Sunday), the event attracts over 1, 000 exhibitors, 4, 500 head of livestock, and up to 190, 000 visitors. It is the premier fixture in Scotland's farming calendar and generates over £200 million in business. Exhibitors compete for the prestige of winning not only a prize ticket, but also for prize money and trophies worth over £1 million.
