[RC] Rider weight vs horse size - Kitley, Carrie E Civ USAF AFSPC 30 MDSS/SGSLF

Ok, here's a new topic I'd like to gather opinions on . . .
My mare is 14.2 hh and weighs about 880 to 900 lbs or so.  Personal body weight 
plus gear and pack weight is probably about 185 total.  Even if my mare is 
conditioned properly, do you think this is too much weight for her to do a 50?  
Or am I just a softy and worrying too much about her carrying said weight?  Lol
Just curious.
