Hi all!

I know it's nearly impossible to say but looking for opinions from people who have had similarly bred horses :)

My 16 month old filly is currently 15hh, she was sold to me as having the potential to finish at 16.3hh. Mum is a 15.3hh ISH and dad is a 16.3 Hanoverian. What height does everyone think she will finish? What height were your 16.3 horses at this age?

She has a lot of WB in her breeding so I know she will be a late bloomer but she's exceptionally bum high still and was 14.1 when I brought her home in April so after some gold feed, grass and a decent worming regimen she has absolutely blossomed so I'm kind of hopeful 😅😅🦄

They are all a bit different in how they grow.

One of mine I bought at about 16 months and she was prob 15.1/2 and just kept growing like a weed - must have been about 16.2 at rising 3. Now at 4 not much taller but much filled out, and she will likely stop at 16.3hh 🤞🙏

Others have been slower - now 7yo is about 16hh but was pony sized at 16 months.

I'm hoping she will finish at 16.3! She's grown so much since April. I'm paranoid because I need a tall horse because I'm tall myself 😅 Let's pray to the height god's!
