I'm 5'3 & Dave is 13hh & a smidge.

Well, that's a good advert for all the mealy-mouthed ones! Lovely photo. Reminds me of my favourite childhood co-conspiritor.
Sharp when thwarted, not many brakes and occasional steering issues but jumped everything put in front of him and did a full day hunting with the best of them. Lived into his late thirties and was ridden until my long legs got in his way. He was called Puck of Pook's Hill, after Rudyard Kipling's poem of the same name. He certainly lived up to his namesake.

I ride a 14.00 Hand Pony and I am 5'5". We go for miles!

Yeah - mine's not got very good brakes either ? !
