There is 2.5cm to an inch and 4 inches to a hand so he'd be about 14.2-3hh

I always worked it as 128cm = 12.2hh
138cm = 13.2hh and
148cm = 14.2hh give or take a smidge.

10cm to the hand isn't it? That is how I work it out.
So 148cm = nudging 14.3h

Yup 10 cm is 4 inches 5 cm is 2 inches so 148 cm cob must be 14.3 as near as dammit!
