Horsey Hearse

Walking back from the garage this morning I was passing Coney Hill cemetery and spotted these horses being groomed ready to pull the hearse carriage.
You can't see them all but there are 4 horses, I went in to see them and asked if I could take a couple of photos. see extras.
I mentioned to the man in charge that they did not appear to be Shire horses and he said they were Funeral Horses, bred because of their colour.
