Its the way the horse is geared. Im no expert on heading or barrel horses but the top ones are bigger than say a cutting horse..

But as I just posted in another thread, a friend just gave me a Saddle mare and filly. The mare is roughly 15.5, and the filly at 1 yr. is as tall as her mom.

What is the bred WP? Are you saying the filly is 15.5 hands or is she from another mare?
