Hey guys! I thought this would be a fun thread idea!! You can use internet pictures..it's not a contest or anything but, I thought it would be fun if we found the tallest/stockiest horse we could ever find over the internet (or it could be your horse..who knows!!

)and post photos of it. I thought that would be cool!! I mean, just go out there and try to find a picture of the biggest/tallest/stockiest horse you could ever find. These animals are amazing!!!

Goliath - the world's current record holder for the tallest horse. This is what I pulled up when I googled "tallest horse". Not sure if he'd be the stockiest horse though. He's 19.1 hands at the wither (which is 6 feet 5 inches).

I met the horse who is now being put in the Guiness Book for the tallest horse last October. Radar is 19.3hh.
