Anyone who knows via here or on f'book, ssshhhhhhh! :)
 
Complete guess, 16 hands?:)

ETA He looks bigger in the third picture! But looks about 14 hands in the stable! I'm rubbish at this :D Oh and about 14 yrs

He could be a very overweight 2/3 year old from some aspects of his conformation, although he could equally be 8-10 (and also still overweight!) as he has a well developed topline. Although I'd be guessing that he's much older and that's why you're asking!! He looks like a large horse - 16.2 at least, although you may have small stables and a 14.2hh!!!
 
I would say 4-5 and 16 hands.

I am rubbish at this sort of thing.

Is there a prize? (she whines)

he is lovely (stops whining) :)
 
The white hairs on his face make him look like an older horse, but I think that may just be down to his unusual colouring. He doesn't have deep hollows over his eyes so I think he is young - about 4 years old. Height I'll guess at about 15hh.
 
i'd say about 15.2 and 10 years old?

i originally thought 17hh because in one of those pics he looks HUGE, but he looks smaller in the others, and 10 y/o .. well that was just a random guess. he doesn't look like a baby but he doesn't look like an oldie either.

p.s he's gorgeous, lovely markings.
 
Wow I cant believe the age and height range!!!
Some guesses right or very near- loving the guesses that say 'erm... 2-3 or 8-10' lol, cover all areas ha!

He is 3yrs 2.5 months so still a baby lol!

He's about 16.1hh.

He's also rather large as seems to do well on fresh air, but is always muzzled!

So what're your thoughts now?! ;)

Also to add, he's never had a saddle on- only a roller. He's the one I recently posted about getting a saddle for.

Oooh I got the height right :) well I said 16 hands. But I said 14 for age so well out there! He is a beautiful boy and I love his bum :D
 
haha i said 18 but it really was a wild guess and didnt really have any reason behind it, think the 2nd pic down made him look older with his eye half closed lol :rolleyes: i did say 16.2 though so not far off at all! love the whe white markings on his back very unique! :)
 
........ I answered the question before reading the answer.... obviously :P

He's beautiful :)


lol!

Strange how most think he looks older! As hes grown in the summer more white flecks appear on his face.

I always think on pics he looks smaller than he is sizewise thats why I asked that one!

Pics are some that were taken for saddleman to look at his back.
 
He's stunning :D He reminds me a little of my appy, who's 16 hands (don't know my lad's age, I would guess at 9ish) so I would say yours is the same size :)
 
"He's also rather large as seems to do well on fresh air, but is always muzzled!"

So much like my appy :P He's retired due to injury, and my goodness now he's not ridden he's ballooned out! There's not even any grass in his field, and he's muzzled too!
