Either way is wrong because of the "type" not because of the size differential.

I had no idea birthing complications would happen... thanks guys. As for Steeledancer, well, what are you talkin' about a pony just like mine getting caught in the bush?

yes there could well be birthing complications with a very big stallion but if you want a taller foal you could still breed to a QH or paint horse about 15.2hhish or a fell/dales pony if you want something heavier.
