i have four foals, of the type of pedigree i am familiar with, so generally am closish with 'mature heights'. Having seen a freinds 13.2hh Foal today which she says will stay under 15hh ( and is younger then mine!) im now wondering whether the boy i thought would make 14hh actually will, as he is tiny compared to friends foal!!
how big are your foals? as im entering the foal show and am now worrying il put mine in the wrong 'not to exceed' section!!

I measured two of mine the other day, the first born around 15th April out of a 14hh mare by a 16'2 stallion is measuring 121cms I was hoping for a 15 to 15.2 from this cross however not convinced at present as he is at about the same size as the foals to make 14.2hh The other born 30th may - our Orphan - out of a 13.3 mare by a 14.2 stallion is measuring 122cms (125cms behind!!!!)
