ok well after doing the knee to coronet band measurement.....shes 17 inchs......doing the string test elbow to fetlock shes 17.1hh

well my youngster tb x hanovarianx cob is 2yrs 4mth shes standing 15.2hh at min altho slightly higher at bum at min, according to these tests shes going to make 17hh min......is this poss...sire 16.2 dam 17.1 shes very gangly still all leg n short body.

tried the string test on my dales and its perfectly correct however i doubt shes going to grow so tall PLEASE tell me has anyone else had such tests prove you wrong. just i thought altho they grow until 7yrs most growth would be up to 3 to 4 yrs,

mind she doesnt look like a 2yr old shes all gangly like a baby still is this normal?

I have known horses grow again when they hit 5 - and the size of the "parents" isn't that great a guide. My mare was out of a 15.1 cob by a 16.1 TB and ended up as a 16.3..
