    Is it true that Welsh cobs and ponies develop late?

    Hi guys can you help me please? My boy has just turned five, last Monday. Ive had to buy him a new bridle as he has out grown the one he had a year ago. He has not started to fill out yet. I was told Welshies are late developers. Is this right? Thanks.
