Connor was last measured in June of 2012, when he was six years and one month old. At that time he was 14.0hh. One year before that, at the Welsh show in August of 2011, he was 13.3 and 3/4".
Us, five years ago! |
His breeder Lisa and I did bets on what he would measure this time. She said he'd be 14 and 3/8ths and so I said he'd be 14 and 1/2". We were both surprised when he measured 14.1hh!

Temp numbers because the airline lost the luggage with the real numbers in it...oops. |
A few things could have contributed. He was a little bit up in the covered arena at the KHP. Or maybe we measured wrong last time. And of course, Welsh Cobs, and his line in particular, are known for being very slow to mature. It's possible he really did grow between age 6 and age 11.

Either way...I'll take it! He's permanently 14.1hh as far as the USEF is concerned.
Anyone else have a slow grower?
