How many people can ride a draft horse before it gets too heavy for the horse? For example percheron, Shire?

I’m looking to buy a draft horse and my friends dont really know how to ride. They want to ride with me so i thought a draft horse would be a good pick. Thanks for the info.

    its never a good idea to put more then one person on a horse expecially if they are around the same weight now a adult and a child is oky… as for a draft horse if you are going to do it no more then 2 people…drafts are strong but its not a good idea to over stress the spine..
