(taken a couple of summers ago when she was really fit)

do u think i look to big for her? i dont feel it. but i sometimes wonder and the reason ive been thinking about it even more is we have been looking at another highland thts for sale and is also 13.3hh to use for showing dressage etc. so just wanna make sure i'd look alright

pony we'd looked at http://www.adhorse.co.uk/horseforsale_23572.html
 
ps the only thing me an pop ever won was 5th place at a hill pony comp with another girl and her pony. poor show by our highland team ha ha!!!
 
I think you look fine on her! I always feel paranoid on B. She's a slightly built hackney mare at 15hh and before her I was riding a 15.1hh extremely wide cob and big showjumpers so she does feel a lot smaller although rides bigger than the cob if that makes sense.

Strangely though I don't worry at all if I look too big on the 14hh haffy!
 
I'm 5.2ft and I still ride my sisters 13hh fell pony. My legs look ever so slightly too long but I've never had a bad comment about it.

You look absoloutly fine!
 
Im 5'6'' and i ride my mums 13.3hh Highland. It's amazing how much they take your leg up. You look absolutely fine on her, she looks lovely!!
