Would she make a good WHP - or is she too heavy?

[Ravenwood]

I have always thought that this pony would make a fab WHP (she is 15hh) but is she possibly a bit on the heavy side?

Link to her photos:-

She would do well as a whp , If she can jump and has nice paces and good conformation then yeah go for it .

Shes lovely x

She's not too heavy at all! I'm sure she'll do fine if she jumps well.

if she jumps well she would be lovely. she is gorgeous!!

Not too heavy, think she'd do really well actually, provided she jumps well and has pretty good confo. Best of luck to you both!

when I saw the photos yesterday my first though was she would make a nice worker if she could jump.

Enter a novice class at a local show (jumps should be 2'6" or a little bigger)

I think she would be a fab working hunter pony, get doing it she is gorgeous.

I think you will be fine at local level but I do not think she is quality enough for county.

To really make the most of her as her back end looks weaker than her front end: would change your quartermarks instead do two/three lines running down the rump. The other one that is popular is a V. Put sharks teeth below that and voila will look more filled out.

Would also trim feathers.

All very encouraging replies - thanks, we'll give it a go then.

Excellent tip there Lec thanks.
