I've been a little busy and haven't really kept up much on all this stuff, so I apologize if it's already been discussed. But with the AMHA closing its books to hardships coming up..next year? I think, I assume this is to make it more of a "paper breed" and less of a strictly "height breed." So here is where I have questions. If it's going to be considered a breed, are oversize horses going to be able to keep their papers? How could they be pulled if the AMHA is no longer strictly a height breed? And what about horses who've had papers revoked for being over? Or people who have applications for horses who went over height? Can they be reinstated and apply for registration? What about showing? Will there be an oversize division? If not, that still leaves some "oversize AMHA" horses essentially unregistered (What do you do with a gelding who's gone over? That would discourage gelding, I would think).
Or is AMHA staying a strictly height breed and just closing registration?
