That's a beautiful horse....and he kinda seems to know it too!!

This fair has been going I think since the end of the 19th century It’s part of the traveller/gypsy families history It must carry on for as long as it can I don’t think it’s cruel but some will The horses are well kept and are shown off and the horse carts/carriages look amazing 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧👍 👍 😃😃🌼🌼

Thankyou for such a lovely inclusion loved every footage of filming of Applelby may it continue

Ever wondered what that horse looks like for the rest of the year? Stuck in a muddy field for winter. There is one near me which has ruined the field making it impossible to walk on due to is weight. Left out there whilst it's "traveller" owners can see it in all weathers from their window.

This fair must continue the love for those magnificent horses and the pride in the face's off the owners. It's tradition sterted since 16-85 along tradition 😊

The love and pride of people for their horses!

Damn I'm all for work horses... but those two big ass guys with that small ass horse (who is clearly exhausted) need to walk.

Ass is a donkey not a horse

I'm not particular fan of horses but wow..❤

Many did not have a breeching on the harness. Going downhill, the weight of the whole sulki and passengers is taken on the wither pad and crupper.

What a beautiful animal so beautiful thank you for showing it to us.

Some beautiful Vanners and Cobs. I love the Cobs with the mustaches.

Who would want to live in Appleby with this lot turning up every year The Tri Colour Caravan Club

Look at the state of some of the horses, when was the last time they had a bath & groom, ages ago. Horrible people, they are NOT horse lovers at all, do not be fooled

The man with the white horse is so cute

so many of those horses are so so tired that they cant even keep there heads up that brown one with the little horse with it is on its last leg and they need to stop over loading the pony carts love the ponies

Don’t agree with your remark, they don’t looked tired. They looked well looked after. Those for sale quite often fetch a lot of money. As a horse fair with sales of horses the RSPCA is also there for any potential problems. These people know their horses … and tens of thousands of people turn out to see them …

Unless you own horses and know about them ,they probably better looked after then some other privately own horses..horses are very strong for their size ,even a Shetland is..they’re fine.

Helpful to have resting spots with shade and water and no public

Horses are travellers pride and joy they look after them really well. Some are worth alot of money too so they are no good injured or dead. I know a gypsy family I have seen how to treat their animals used to spend alot of time as a kid up their field

How beautiful!!! 🥰❤️

The pair of painted horses (one pulling cart, one being led) shown at 9:15 min..the horse pulling the cart is obviously in pain, and lame. This horse shouldn’t be made to participate and pull a cart. I hate to see such cruelty

Two horse died through exhaustion if they know and care so much about the horses why flog them to death to show off on front of the crowds..times have changed they have not ...

What beauties they are

look more horses whired colours of horse but they looked well looked after ? the hole filming shows another light to apple be which I think is good horses, people , carts, the amount of nice carts around apple be & the way they.ve made there carts .

These people are NOT animal lovers. I have seen their cruelty first hand. Tying up foals they dont want or are ill down quiet country roads to die. D9 not be fooled by them

It’s an English tradition. Gone on for years,it makes a day out,and interesting,an old fashioned show of horses,and people enjoying themselves,so what if their litter,no worse then any other event,.lif u don’t like lit don’t live there or visit,.long live the fair.

Son como fantasmas, nadie sonríe, pasan indiferentes entre ellos. Procesion , triste sin Alegria.😮

It's like the UK version of the Jersey Shore with horses.

👍👍👍

Horses are their lives , these are brought to sell - on their last legs 😂 don’t be so ridiculous! Travellers treat horses like their family…… great people and happy for them to congregate and see family and friends they see once a year! Old fashioned traditions morals and values in a world that’s gone crazy! Good people ❤

In a carriage??

Pferde Liebe 😊

Some of those owners are very cruel to those horses and ponys. They need to be stopped.

If you don't think any cruelty was seen in this video either you weren't watching everything and every horse/pony or you just don't care.
