Also how much height difference is acceptable for a pair?
It would seem that a major factor that height makes is length of stride.
Leaders in a four are often smaller but it is important that the can move out
with the larger wheel horses.
What weight could you fairly expect a pair of 15 hh standardbreds to pull?
In coaching with a four today, a horse will still pull his own weight plus.
That has been true for 100s of years.
And is there a difference in pulling power between pacers and trotters?
