That much? Mine come up around the 420 mark on a weigh tape - anything more and they're too fat. Although, of course, if the weigh tape is weighing 10% lighter than the horse is, that does make it 460ish. Mine are well built, BTW.

Weigh taped mine yesterday. She's a 14.3 Crabbet, and is currently 430ish. Last time I used the tape she was 460 , but that was at the end of summer.

Bex, bear in mind her build too! Having seen a couple of shots, I'd say you are looking at about the 450kg - 480kg mark and she'd be healthy looking.

It won't be long until the better weather, and longer daylight hours so you will be able to do more with her and get some of those excess lbs off!
