horse size

[Samm C Bartee <bartesc@mail.auburn.edu>]

Hey  Leigh (?)...

I have a good friend who completed many, many LD miles with her 13.3 hand
Arab X. She weighed about 150  at the time and had a fairly  heavy saddle.
She is 5'6 or '7, don't remember for sure.  
capability of carrying you has more to do than just the size in hands of
the horse....as we have been talking a lot about on here....


I prefer the Arab Appaloosa cross. I have several and they are shaping up
nicely  My first homebred is now 5 and  we will see how she goes in
something other than LD next year, for this year and LD, she is doing
marvelous!!!

Good luck with  what you choose to pursue.
