Default Don't forget the head

Knowing the size of him is great but don't forget the head/neck are higher than the wither height which is where his measurement is taken. A rough guide is 12 ft[3 1/2m] square,rising to 13ft[4m] for horses over 16 hands. Slightly smaller if under that height but no less than 10ft [3m] in height.
