Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my post. I have a 3 year old gelding, who the rescue stated he was a blagdon cob. Some say hes a cob x shire. Some say hes a cob x appaloosa. I don't believe this and wanted second opinions. He is currently standing at 15hh, 15'2 on his bum. And he is so heavy set it's crazy. Please please any ideas?

Is this him?

If so I don't see any stock horse type (Appaloosa) build in him. He looks like a Skewbald (Bay tobiano) Gypsy cob. I'm also not sure where the 'blagdon' came from either.

I can definitely see why you were questioning what you have been told. He looks lovely BTW. :)

Thank you, I was very confused when I saw his passport was blagdon cob. Only reason I questioned if he was a cob was we rescued another cob at the same time but a pie bald who has always been a hand smaller. Thank you for your help.
