Wow - look at this poor 2 year old!!

Thank goodness they say he's now turned away. Backing so young when such a baby is one thing, but being ridden by such a huge person is quite another. :( His back looks bowed under the rider's weight. :eek3:

Definitely! You can literally see his back bowing :-( I wonder if he is turned away for coincidental 'no rider' type reasons or sensible 'because he's ridiculously young' reasons.

I think he will make a lovely wee horse in a couple of years!
 
wonder if they have turned the poor sod away because he did start to object. Hope no long term harm has been done
 
He looks a lovely type, shame about the lump on his back! Looks better in the driving pic, probably because his back isn't dipping through weight. Think he'd be lovely in a couple of years given some time.
 
Well I know lots of people on here don't think cobs should be carrying any weight and I mean their own body weight not that of an overly large rider but I think for a cob this horse is very slight bless him, bearing in mind the time of year too. I can't imagine what that person was thinking riding a two year old anyway and one that is so obviously not up to her weight. This horse isn't that far from me.
