I own a 14.1hh connie. I am 5'5 and between 9-10 stone. My mare is not overweight and fairly fit. I don't know her exact weight (not sure how to measure her) but calculated based on 400kg. That brings me in at around 15-16% without tack. Is this too heavy?

She is a lovely colour, good luck with her

People who saw their horses mouth into what they call an 'outline.'

I fear I may now be skint for the rest of the month.... Oops!

Far too cute!
