Ok, I'm a newbie here, I've never even rode 10 miles in one day lol let alone 50.  I have been riding jumpers and dressage for the past 10 years and want to know what size horse should I have?  I just bought a 14.3 arab mare and I'm afraid she's too small.  I'm 5'4 and 170lbs.  Naturally all of my english friends think she's WAY too small for me and that I'm too heavy for her (which by the way I have started working out and am working on shrinking, 6lbs gone, 36 more to go lol).  I ride in a synthetic thorowgood endurance saddle that weighs less than 13lbs.  She is a petite little thing, but I love the way she rides, and her quirky, spooky, grumpy personality.
