Photos: Horse driving competition at Silver Shoe Farms, Batavia
Competitors from throughout Western New York -- and even West Virginia -- were at Silver Shoe Farms on Pratt Road, Batavia, today for carriage driving races.
Nicole Cable said this is the third year Silver Shoe has hosted the event.
The races feature two- and four-wheel carriages, some of them antiques -- remnants of the pre-automobile era.
Cable, 29, started carriage racing when she was 9. She now teaches carriage driving at the farm.
Competitors were ages 9 and up and both men and woman. Horse sizes ranged from 32-inches tall to 16 hands.
