Re: [RC] height of horses - heidioh, 3/4 arab, rushcreek breeding, at least 16.2? the only way to tell is to measure him. but if he is rushcreek, and 3/4 to boot, then that tall gene could have come from something else! i get a little tickled with some of my diehard quarterhorse friends who get offended when i refer to their 15.3 and "16" hand quarterhorses as appendix bred. call a spade a spade, i say. research quarterhorse breeding and see what you find out. You got that right, Ed! And go look at the cutting horses--those 14-hand Poco Buenos and Doc Bars and such--with the 6'6" riders whose stirrups nearly drag the dirt when they belly down to cut! And they are some of the most agile, athletic QHs going! Heidi =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
