You beat me too it, I was going to post almost the exact same thing. I'm a Clydesdale myself at 225, and i bear it as a mark of honour. The Clydesdale is a magnificent beast, beautiful in its rugged way and incredibly strong. From the Wiki:

"Clydesdales are noted for grace and versatility; they can stand as tall as 18 hands (1.8 meters or 6 feet) in height and up to one ton (2,000 pounds) in weight. A Clydesdale has a large head with somewhat convex profile(a Roman-nose) small ears, large, dark eyes and a heavy forelock. The neck is short and slightly arched, the chest deep, the shoulders heavy and well-muscled. The back is short, the withers clearly defined, and the rump presents a well-muscled and distinctively rounded silhouette. The legs should be long and strong with characteristically large hoof size, being at least twice the diameter of those of a light riding horse, such as a Thoroughbred.

The characteristic action of a Clydesdale is demonstrated at a trot. Despite its large size, the Clydesdale presents with an energetic quality described by the Clydesdale Horse Society as "gaiety of carriage and outlook.""

I can identify with that, I'd much rather be a clyde than a wimpy thoroughbred
