sorry cant do this photo bucket thing

but i sold teddy 2 years ago when i was 20 and he was 15.2hh (part connie!!) and im 5"7/8 i didnt sell him as i was to big i sold as he just could jump the heights i wanted to

im 5'6" and i ride a 13hh pony (she is very strong though!)
i hunted her a few times last season and she could carry me alright

I'm 5'8 and not a small built lassie and I ride a 14.1hh Highland.

How about 5'11'' weighing about 9.5 stone:

* On 13.2 hh QH colt. You can't see all of his legs unfortunatly but you get he idea, I did kick him in the 'elbow' a few times. He easily carried me and the 7 kg western saddle all day herding cattle

Please ignore my bad postue in this photo (it annoys me everytime I look at it!) it was the end of a long day..., and it is my camera sticking out of my jeans, it was the easiest place to carry it!

* Or on 15.1hh Anglo Arab colt, who easliy carried me up and down mountains, did enduraces, showed me what a 'real' collected trot felt like and jumped 90cm...

What great pics.

Your position is fine you look relaxed which is how it should be lovely horses you have.

5'8" on my 15'2"

and on a 15'3"

 

[Puppy]

I don't have a photo but my mother is 5'8" and used to ride my 14.2. He was a narrow anglo arab too. It wasn't ideal (she looks much better on Star) but they were fine

 

[saddlesore]

I honestly dont think you look remotely big in either one of them!!

Thanks for all your relies guys - some fantastic horses out there!!

Flowerlady - thank you for your comment!

They are/were both lovely horses. Sadly neither were mine I just had the pleasure of ridning them both.

Also I feel terrible for not introducing the black dog: Tess, a stray that adopted us.
