dr. O,

Quick question. I'm thinking of purchasing an OTTH who is just turning 4 this summer. He sticks about 15.3, but he is very narrow and juvenille looking if you know what I mean. Do TB mature later and put on more width once they are off the track. He seems like he is medium boned.

Mature no, put on weight Yes.
