When I first produced this video and showed it to a film producer, he said there was too much footage of the horses. The shots of people watching are what are considered to be cut-away shots. They help make a transition or cover a splice. As it is, there are long sequences of the horses in the show ring as well as good sequences of draft horses. The length of the latter scenes was limited to archival and reenactment film that I could find. Not easy.

Just wish they showed the horses more!! Lot of short shots of them, but many of people watching.
