The horse's size has nothing to do with the height it can jump. I've seen teeny little ponies jump much bigger than thoroughbreds. It's all about training, temperament, muscling and conformation. Unfortunately there's no set in stone way of telling- you just need to play it by ear. For example, I had a 16.2 WBX and his limit was 1.10m (almost 4 ft). Any higher then that and he would hit the jump. He was EXTREMELY fit, and well trained. That was just his limit. On the other hand, I've seen some 15hh horses jump well up for 5ft with no problems. Depends on the horse you have:) Get your horse fit, and as he progresses, raise the jumps and see how he goes. DON'T over face him, make sure he's comfortable jumping the height you've set for him. If your horse has a good mind, and good conformation- there's no reason why he can't be jumping larger fences when he's fit and trained. How do you think the Grand Prix horses get to where they are?? BQ: I've got two in training. The higher level horse- we're working on half pass and flying changes. The green mare we're working on being calm at walk and trot, and learning to accept contact. :)

My horse isn't allowed (Due to his hoof)to jump but he LOVES jumping We just moved him and he cleared a 8 foot fence with the lunge line attached (He pulled away from me, I didn't feel like getting dragged so I let go) xDD but he was fine after, the little arab that I am training can clear 4 footers and shes only 14hh Its adorable.

Keep on going higher and higher but make sure he is able to clear it each time. If he doesn't clear a certain height a number of times then that's the one you need to work on. Practice with him over and over. Try different stride count and slow and fast canters if he hits it and it falls each time. That is his limit(: hope this helps(:

you can do little jumps and work him up to see what he can do? stop when he misses a bar or two cuz that could be how high he can jump.

Lord knows, the jumping limit of my hanoverian. He's an 18hh jumping monster. We've recently been jumping over 1.5m. I swear if I let him, he'd try to jump a skyscraper. However, I tend to become unbalance the higher we jump. But I'm overcoming it with my trainer. So, time will tell when he reaches his limits. Obviously, a horse can be trained to jump higher, but you can honestly tell when they can jump no higher. You can see that they are trying their hardest to make it over but just can't. It's smart to introduce the height gradually though, to see how how he is willing to go. And it's almost impossible to see the average a 16.3hh wamblood can jump, because all horses are different as you stated. Some can jump a jumper higher than themselves, while others may be limited to just being able to jump half a meter. It's best to just go by the individual horse and see what happens. BQ" Well, as I've stated above my Hanoverian and I are currently working on my jumping position and balance with the higher jumps. My selle francais is currently being trained by my trainer fully in cross country and dressage. He's a bit rusty with his aids but he's progressing everyday. As for my new quarter horse, we have been working a lot on basic dressage and he is a wonder. He responds beautifully to leg. I love it. And of course, my pony is working on rolling around in the pasture happily in retirement.

It's really hard to tell. Some 14 hand ponies can jump higher than some 17 hand warm bloods - look at Teddy O'Connor, the famous eventer. Only 14 hands, but beating all the big horses and qualifying for the US Olympic eventing team. The best thing to do is to start him low and see how he does. It's not necessary to jump high things all the time; a course of 2' jumps will keep him fit for your friend without stressing his joints or overjumping him. It's only a week, so I wouldn't try him over real high stuff. He doesn't need it to get fit, and if you overjump him you've done more harm than good. So my plan would be to just keep him fit with combinations of low jumps, not to try and ride him over things that are hard for him.

Your horses height, size takes no play in how high he can jump. I used to ride this tiny pony who could clear almost anything. I have seen thoroughbreds jump over 5ft. Any horse can jump around 3ft but it takes a horse with fitness, heart, and will, to jump anything higher than that. Also, you should never, ever jump anything higher than your comfort zone because I have seen girls who have had one bad fall over a jump that was too high for their experience level and have given up riding for good. Your horse may seem fine over a 3'6 fence right now, but really, he may not be able to handle that in courses. I remember my trainer telling me that if someone tells you a horse can jump really high, it is probably only in singles not courses. Good luck with your horse and usually warmbloods can jump really high. (around 1.0 - 1.60) BQ: I've just got a 16hh Appendix gelding and we are working on teaching him how to collect around a course of about 1.0 - 1.10. He already has automatic flying changes and rounds up on a dime but I am only 12 years old and am quite tiny so he tends to get strong with me. :) :) :) :) :) GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
