I know first hand that the number one cutting/reining horse breeder is knocking out little bitty 14 or less hand horses that aren't truly even registerable but they don't give a @### because they're in it for the money and don't generally compete in AQHA


First, can you please tell me the minimum height (and the maximum) and weight for a QH to be registered?

And second, please, name 1 top cutting horse (other than Smart Little Lena and Shania Cee) actually shorter than 14 hands? there aren't that many, contrary to what many people might thing.

BTW, I'd take a 13 hand athlete over a 16+ hand 1400+ pound horse that does nothing any day.
