In my opinion, a true American Quarter Horse should be no more than 16.5 hands (66" tall at the shoulder). However, the American Quarter Horse Association allows for horses that are part Quarter Horse and part Thoroughbred to be registered as "Appendix American Quarter Horses" and these can be up to the height of a Thoroughbred, 18 hands (72" tall at the shoulder).
