yes,i had a horse for 28 years.i am 5.6 and weigh 165 to 170 most of the time,and my horse never had a problem with my weight.she was a hunter,half thorobred,half some sort of draft-horse.she was 15.1 and took more after her thorobred side,being surprisingly light in weight and size.she did have fuzzy ankles tho<lol-she was like a hobbit!best of luck with ur new horse!
