Hiya, just as title really. I need the approx weights for some horses that It is not possible for me to weigh. It's for a project. More horses are being used but I'll manage to weight those.
Approximate is fine as really using body condition score- but do need to know.
Approx weight as in 'ideal weight'

Shetland pony- standard full size

18hh shire cross thoroughbred- more to the tb

13.2 gypsy cob

17.2hh shire x thoroughbred- more to the shire

15.3 thoroughbred- never raced


Thanks! Would really appreciate approx weights.

Can't help with yours but my chap was 590 on weighbridge a few weeks ago and if you look at my album his weight doesn't vary massively so may help, he is medium weight, 16hh appaloosa.

My 18hh shire x tb ( TB was sire) more a middle than a heavyweight was at least 900kg. but he measured 18hh with his poll level with his withers, he was 18.2hh with his head up , so it will depend how they have been measured. poll level with top of withers is the correct way.
