As the title says, really! Finally got around to string testing Flower today, and it puts her at dead on 16hh at maturity. Going by the 'two hands a year from one' rule, that seems to ring true to me, and it's exactly what I've always estimated her ending up at. It's a fair bit bigger than I'd have liked - somewhere between 14hh and 14.2hh would have been my ideal - but I do think she'll look rather impressive at that size and build, so no real complaints from me. Just makes it even more important that I do a good job of raising a polite and mannerly young lady as opposed to an oversized thug, I guess!
So, for those who've tried it with their own horses, how accurate have you found it?
