Had to giggle, had a call from the lady who owns my last years colt. She'd rung to make me laugh, she and her freind had a stick and tape on the young man now 18 mnths old......

He is standig full up 16hh with 10 inch of bone!!!

How tall are the sire and dam out of curiosity?

My Faux Finish (TB) mare is out of the 16.1hh Puchi Trap mare out of the 16.1hh Guaranteed Gold stallion and at 18 months of age, she was a smidge under 16hh and now as a 4 year old she is sitting at 17hh and we feel she may finish at 17.1hh when she is done growing ...

Remember My Name - her full brother - again at 18 months of age - is sitting at 15.3 3/4 in front and 16hh in behind and I initially thought that he was going to finish in the 16.2hh range but now it is looking like he will go to the 17hh mark as well ...

Some stallions tend to throw taller than they are, and taller than the mares are and it sure seems to be the case with my guys!

Are there any other full siblings of your colt to compare to?
 
A Spanish Norman is a warmblood, produced by crossing Percheron mares to Andalusian stallions. The Norman must have a min of 50% Andalusian blood but can have less percheron.

These two colts are the only ones in the country, there are five fillies to.

I'm sorry we don't have a web site yet but it is on our list of things to do. The following link however will take you to the american site where you will find more info.

All messages of sympathy for me (the owner of said mammoth) will be greatly received.

His breeder forgot to tell you he is also fitting very well in a 6'6" rug.

Honestly though folks he is an absolute stunner. If you people out there like a horse with a bit of substance about them then these chaps are the real deal.

Big as Theodore is, he is so gentle and sweet natured you would never know he was entire.

He moves like a dream, very light on his feet for a big lad.

I knew when I bought him he was going to be a big as mum is the biggest most stunning beast I've ever seen, its just amazing watching him grow! When he was last measured on his first birthday (13th July) he was 15.1.

Earlier this year someone rode past my paddock and said "I like the little grey out there, how old is he, is he a 3 yr old"? no I said he's 9 months!!!!!!

Bless him, he's such a dear!!!
 
Good questio, due to there beautiful temperments they would make anything from your best friend to national level competion horses.

My girl will be trainned for dressage and we will do ridden hunter classes, but has an awsome jump on her to........

Theo is being produced with top professional guidance to hopefuly become a top heavy weight hunter.

There's one competeing in germany eventing with one of there to riders, can't remember name though.

pulled off of the web site to give you a better idea of what Samara and Ulysses should mature to.
