The Island has a couple of 'warhorses' waiting their turn to pull their weight in the latest Manx film production.
'Sultan' and 'Rico' have been trained to pull carriages in the period drama 'Belle', which is set in the 1600s.
Prior to that they have appeared in 'Troy' and 'Prince of Persia'.
In 'Warhorse', a number of them appeared in the title role of 'Joey', from being a foal through to being a soldiers' mount in the First World War.
Daniel Naprus is the horse master:
