I've always loved big horses and I wanted to know, Whats the biggest horse you guys have ever seen? Any pictures? The biggest horse I've seen was a 17.3h Percheon cross.

Um, I rode a 17.1hh Warmblood/apppendix TB, she was HUGE!! (build like a "brick house" as Matt (instructor) says.
(She was very interesting to brush/tack, taller than I'm used to, lol)

Theres an 18.3 police horse at one of the places i ride at(the police and riding school share a barn).
He's HUGE.We have a picture of him standing beside the mini(who stands 9 hands flat)and it's absolutly hilarious.Theres this big as **** police horse-Oh,did I mention that he also happens to be built like a full draft?-and little tiny cooper.

Biggest horse i've ridden is a TBXTraekner whos 17.2

17.3h horse? Show us pics, I'm curious to see it.
The biggest horse I've seen I think has been 16.3h. Ironically I've worked with some of the top show jumping horses in the country, but that's still the biggest I've seen.

A tb and a Westfalen who were 16.3 that's the biggest I've ever been around.
