An adult horse typically weighs between 900 and 2,200 pounds, depending on the breed and size. Average riding breeds, like Thoroughbreds and Quarter Horses, usually weigh between 1,000 and 1,200 pounds. Larger draft breeds, such as Clydesdales, can weigh significantly more, often exceeding 1,800 pounds. Factors such as age, health, and nutrition can also influence a horse's weight.
