World's Tallest Horse? AG WORLD 29-1-21 According to the 2005 Guinness Book of World Records, a 12-year-old Percheron draft horse in Texas named Goliath is now the world's tallest living horse.
Goliath is part of a team of promotional draft horses called the Texas Thunder owned by Priefert Ranch Equipment.
He went into the Guinness World Record book in 2003 for standing 19.1 hands (6 ft. 5 in. at the withers). With neck outstretched, he measures 8 ft. 2 in. to the top of his head.
Percheron Draft Horses generally stand from 17 to 19 hands and weigh around 2,000 lbs.
To maintain his approx. 2,400 lbs., Goliath eats about 18 lbs. of grain, 40 lbs. of hay, and drinks 20 gal. of water each day.
Although originally the wheel horse for Texas Thunder, Goliath is also a solo act. "He keeps his own schedule as a one-horse show," says Tracie Neal, a company spokesperson.
