My emails arrive in such a random order I just received this Wed. morning -
I also get lots of emails twice.

Anyway, I have experienced what would be considered late growth, in many
Icelandics, sometimes it is muscle development - widening in the chest and
filling out through the body - and other times it is definitely growth in
height.  I have seen them finish growing at 7 and it can be horses born in
Iceland or here.
