Although his official height has not yet been confirmed, rumor has it that Poe, an 8 year old Clydesdale gelding that stands at 20.2 hands may well take over the Guinness World Record for the tallest horse.
Radar, a Belgian Draft Horse, is the current record holder, standing at a mere 19.3 1/2 hands.
I thought there was a young shire named Noddy who was 20.1 hh and still growing.
That is great, I hope Poe wins the award. I too have Clydesdales and they are monsters too. Not sure how tall they are, never checked but in order for me to mount my horse bareback, I have to stand on top of my ATV rack. They are wonderful breeds and I’m looking to breed with a pure bred male.
I am very interested in knowing how tall the young lady is that is riding Poe, and also, why anyone would clip off is leg feathers? (He is a nice looking horse, with or without his feathers, though.)
I hope he does. If he’s 20.2 hands, than, fairly, he should get the spot. IDK if that Noddy stuff is true, though
