    Could I ride an 11.2hh pony?

    i checked the mounted games association height/weight chart, and for me it said that for a 121lbs 5ft2 female, i could ride: stocky 11.2/11.2hh a medium pony between 12.ohh and 12.2hh a fine pony at 13.2hh so you should be fine if its a stocky one :)

    Coloured SJ Jackets?????

    I am competing about 2/3 times a year in unaffiliated SJ..... At the local summer show, people tend to wear proper show gear (white/beige jodhs, tie and jacket) and i will be hopefully competing in that show for the first time in 2016! I was wondering if anyone knew a good website for SJ jackets...
