[RC] Measuring Heart Girth - sindy mccosker

Okay....what should the ideal measurement of heart girth be on a 14.2 hand, 2 yrs old Arabian gelding? Forgive me for sounding stupid, but....can you increase a horses heart girth with conditioning, or is it something that they are born with?
 
What is the ideal heart girth measurement on a mature Arabian?
 
Thank you,
